What combination does the blend electrolysis method use?

  1. Only Galvanic method

  2. Only Thermolysis method

  3. A mix of Galvanic and Thermolysis

  4. Waxing and threading

The correct answer is: A mix of Galvanic and Thermolysis

The blend electrolysis method combines both the Galvanic and Thermolysis techniques to effectively remove hair. This method operates by using the Galvanic process to chemically decompose the hair follicle with a low-level direct current. Concurrently, Thermolysis generates heat using high-frequency alternating current, which aids in the destruction of the follicle through thermal energy. By integrating both methods, the blend approach enhances effectiveness, allowing for faster treatments and greater precision in hair removal. The other options do not reflect this combination. The Galvanic method alone focuses solely on chemical hair removal, while Thermolysis relies entirely on heat. Additionally, waxing and threading are forms of temporary hair removal and are not associated with any electrolysis methods. Therefore, understanding the mechanics of the blend method provides clarity on its dual-action approach, which is why C is the correct answer.
