The removal of natural pigment from the hair is referred to as hair:

  1. relaxing

  2. texturizing

  3. tinting

  4. bleaching

The correct answer is: bleaching

Bleaching is the process of removing natural pigment from the hair to lighten it. Relaxing refers to chemically straightening curly or afro-textured hair. Texturizing refers to altering the natural texture of the hair, such as creating curls or waves. Tinting is the process of adding color to the hair, either permanent or temporary, without removing the natural pigment. Therefore, the other options are incorrect as they refer to different processes that do not involve removing natural pigment from the hair.
