One oblong followed by a row of pincurls is called a ridge curl.

• A. Ridge Curl
• B. Skip Wave
• C. Barrel Curl
• D. Spiral Curl

Answer: (A)

In pin curl terminology, a ridge curl is created by starting with a long, oblong base and following it with a row of pincurls to form a raised ridge. This specific arrangement gives a distinct ridge line and a corresponding wave once the set is released. The other options describe different wrapping styles: a skip wave uses alternating sections to produce a soft wave rather than a single ridge; a barrel curl uses a cylindrical base and multiple turns around a rod for a round, tight curl; a spiral curl wraps the hair in a spiral path for a twisting shape rather than a ridge.
