How many sections are there in a basic perm?

The correct answer is: 9

A basic perm typically consists of 9 sections 4 on the top, 2 on each side, and 1 in the back. Option A is incorrect because it is too few sections for a basic perm. Option B is incorrect because it is also too few sections for a basic perm and is an odd number, making it difficult to evenly distribute the hair. Option D is incorrect because it is too many sections for a basic perm and would result in smaller, tighter curls. Therefore, option C is the correct answer as it is the most commonly used and recommended number of sections for a basic perm.
