The hair press that removes 60 to 75 percent of the curl is the ______________.

  1. Medium press

  2. Soft press

  3. Hard press

  4. Light press

The correct answer is: Medium press

A hair press is a method of straightening curly hair. The medium press is the recommended choice of hair press, as it removes the desired amount of curl (60 to 75 percent) without causing excessive damage to the hair. The other options, such as the soft press, may not remove enough curl and may not give the desired result. The hard press, on the other hand, can remove too much curl and may cause damage to the hair. The light press may not effectively straighten very curly hair, making it an incorrect option compared to the medium press.
