Electrolysis using both direct and alternating currents is called what?

• A. Electrolysis
• B. Blend Method
• C. Probes
• D. Shank

Answer: (B)

Using both direct and alternating currents is called the blend method. It combines galvanic current, which creates a chemical reaction at the follicle, with high-frequency alternating current, which provides heat. This dual action speeds up follicle destruction and is especially effective for tougher hair. The other terms don’t describe a method of using two currents together—the term “electrolysis” is a general process, while probes or shank refer to equipment parts, not a technique.
