What does using a razor on curly hair typically cause?

  1. Increased shine

  2. Weakened cuticle and frizz

  3. Stronger hair fiber

  4. Moisture retention

The correct answer is: Weakened cuticle and frizz

Using a razor on curly hair typically causes a weakened cuticle and frizz because the sharp blade slices through the natural curls, causing them to separate and frizz. This is because razors tend to disrupt the shape of curly hair, making it more prone to breakage and damage. Additionally, the act of using a razor can also damage the outer layer of the hair, leaving it more susceptible to frizz. The other options are incorrect because increased shine is not typically associated with using a razor on curly hair, and neither is stronger hair fiber or increased moisture retention.
