What is the rodding technique where the size of the curl increases as it nears the scalp called?

  1. Croquignole Rodding

  2. Basic Rodding

  3. Spiral Rodding

  4. Volume Rodding

The correct answer is: Croquignole Rodding

The rodding technique mentioned in the question is Croquignole Rodding. This involves creating the curls by wrapping hair tightly around a small rod and then gradually increasing the size of the rod as it nears the scalp. This allows for tighter curls at the ends and looser, more voluminous curls near the scalp. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they either do not involve increasing the size of the curl or refer to different types of rodding techniques. Basic Rodding refers to wrapping hair evenly around a rod without changing its size, Spiral Rodding creates spiral-shaped curls by wrapping hair around a rod in a spiral manner, and Volume Rodding refers to creating large, voluminous curls by using larger rods throughout the hair. Therefore, these options do not fit the description of the rodding technique mentioned in the question.
