What technique is used in a visible braid?

  1. Over technique

  2. Under technique

  3. Corrective base technique

  4. None

The correct answer is: Under technique

A visible braid is created using the "under technique," where the sections of hair are brought under each other instead of over. This creates a more visible and defined braid compared to the "over technique" where sections of hair are brought over each other. The "corrective base technique" is not commonly used in braiding and therefore, is not the correct answer. Lastly, the option "none" does not accurately describe a technique and can be eliminated as well.
