What are wefts?

  1. Caps used to secure wigs

  2. Combs used in hair styling

  3. Long strips of human or artificial hair with a threaded edge

  4. Tools for wig maintenance

The correct answer is: Long strips of human or artificial hair with a threaded edge

Wefts are strips of hair that have been threaded at the edges, making them easy to attach or sew into hair for added length or volume. A is incorrect because caps are used to hold wigs, not wefts. B is incorrect because combs are just a type of hair styling tool and do not have anything to do with wefts. D is incorrect because wefts do not serve as tools for wig maintenance.
