What is a block in the context of wig making?

  1. A tool for cutting wigs

  2. A dye used in coloring wigs

  3. Head-shaped form used for wig fitting, cleaning, coloring, and styling

  4. A type of adhesive

The correct answer is: Head-shaped form used for wig fitting, cleaning, coloring, and styling

A "block" in the context of wig making refers to a head-shaped form that is used for fitting, cleaning, coloring, and styling wigs. A block is not a tool for cutting wigs (option A), as scissors or shears would be used for cutting. It is also not a dye (option B) as dyes are used specifically for coloring purposes. While a type of adhesive (option D) may be used in the wig making process, it does not accurately describe a block in this context.
