Hair pressing is the process of:

  1. Permanently curling hair

  2. Bleaching hair

  3. Temporarily straightening extremely curly hair

  4. Deep conditioning

The correct answer is: Temporarily straightening extremely curly hair

Hair pressing is a technique used to temporarily straighten extremely curly hair. Option A, permanently curling hair, is incorrect because hair pressing is not a curling method. Option B, bleaching hair, is incorrect because hair pressing does not involve chemical treatments. Option D, deep conditioning, is incorrect because hair pressing is not a method used to condition hair, but rather to straighten it. Therefore, option C, temporarily straightening extremely curly hair, is the most accurate answer.
