What styling direction should be taken for close set eyes?

Direct hair forward and across the forehead
Keep the hair flat and close to the face
Direct hair back and away from the face at the temples
Use center partings only

The correct answer is: Direct hair back and away from the face at the temples

Styling for close set eyes should involve directing the hair back and away from the face at the temples. This helps create the illusion of a wider face and gives the appearance of more space between the eyes. Option A, directing hair forward and across the forehead, may make the face appear more narrow and emphasize the close set eyes. Keeping the hair flat and close to the face (option B) may also accentuate the close proximity of the eyes. Option D, using center partings only, does not necessarily address styling for close set eyes and may not have any effect on the appearance of eye separation.
