Wigs, hairpieces, and extensions made of modacrylic are particularly ____________.

  1. colorful

  2. flammable

  3. strong and durable

  4. lightweight

The correct answer is: strong and durable

Modacrylic is a synthetic fiber that is known for its durability and strength, making it an ideal material for wigs, hairpieces, and extensions. This option is therefore the most suitable and logical choice. Option A is not an accurate statement as wigs, hairpieces, and extensions can come in a variety of colors and modacrylic itself does not determine the color. Option B is incorrect as modacrylic is actually a non-flammable material, making it a popular choice for these types of hair products. Option D is also incorrect as modacrylic is not necessarily lightweight.
