Off-base is defined as which of the following, and what is its effect?

45°; Results in minimal lift, used near the perimeter

Off-base is about how the curl sits relative to the base direction, and the lift it produces. When the rod is positioned about 45 degrees off the base, the lift at the scalp is minimized, so the curl sits closer to the perimeter rather than up at the crown. This creates a softer, perimeter-focused shape rather than a strong-volume lift at the top. In practice, this angle is used to control the hair around the edges, giving a natural-looking wave along the perimeter.

90°; Results in maximum lift at the crown

0°; No lift and no curl

60°; Moderate lift throughout the base
