The hair that is wrapped around the barrel of a curling iron is called the ____________.

  1. Curl

  2. Ringlet

  3. Wave

  4. Loop

The correct answer is: Curl

A curl is a cylindrical section of hair that is formed by wrapping it around the barrel of a curling iron. It is different from a ringlet, which is a large, loose curl, and from a wave, which is a more defined and structured hairstyle. A loop may refer to a section of hair that is twisted and then pinned back, but it is not the correct term for the hair that is wrapped around a curling iron. Therefore, A is the best answer as it directly refers to the specific type of hair being described in the question.
