What technique is used in the invisible braid?

  1. Looping

  2. Twisting

  3. Tucking

  4. Overhand

The correct answer is: Overhand

The technique used in the invisible braid is called "overhand." In an overhand braid, the strands of hair are crossed over each other in a smooth and tight motion, creating a seamless braid that appears invisible. Option A (looping) may refer to a different braiding technique where the hair is woven to create loops in the braid. Option B (twisting) is also a common braiding technique, but it involves twisting two or more strands of hair together instead of crossing them. Option C (tucking) may describe a technique of tucking in the ends of a braided style, but it does not refer to the technique used to create the braid itself.
