Which end paper technique uses two end papers, one on top of strand and one on bottom, to control tapered ends?

• A. Bookend end paper technique
• B. Double-paper end paper technique
• C. Single-paper end paper technique
• D. Cushion end paper technique

Answer: (B)

End papers are used to neatly secure the ends of the hair when wrapping for a perm, keeping the ends smooth so the curl forms evenly. The double-paper end paper technique involves placing an end paper on top of the strand end and another on the bottom, completely encasing the ends as you wrap around the rod. This dual wrapping gives precise control over tapered ends, preventing the ends from snagging, frizzing, or slipping and ensuring a clean, uniform curl from root to tip. Using two papers on opposite sides distributes pressure evenly and protects the ends from overprocessing. Other methods use only one end paper or wrap the ends in a different configuration, which doesn’t provide the same level of end control for tapered textures.
