The process used to rearrange over curly hair into a straightened hair form is known as:

  1. Permanent waving

  2. Curl reformation

  3. Chemical hair relaxing

  4. Blow drying

The correct answer is: Chemical hair relaxing

Chemical hair relaxing is the process used to chemically straighten hair. Permanent waving, also known as perming, is the process used to create curls or waves in hair. Curl reformation is a type of service that revives and reshapes curly hair. Blow drying is a heat styling technique used to temporarily straighten hair, but it is not a permanent or chemical process like hair relaxing.
