What type of product is used to sanitize tools and equipment?

  1. Disinfectant

  2. Shampoo

  3. Conditioner

  4. Hair spray

The correct answer is: Disinfectant

The correct choice is disinfectant because it is specifically formulated to kill or inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms on tools and equipment. In the context of barbering, ensuring that tools such as scissors, clippers, and combs are properly sanitized is crucial for preventing the spread of infections and maintaining a safe environment for clients. Disinfectants are designed to meet standards that allow them to effectively clean surfaces and tools that might come into contact with skin or hair, making them essential for sanitation practices in any barbershop. Other products listed, such as shampoo, conditioner, and hair spray, are primarily intended for hair care and styling purposes and do not possess the properties required for effective sanitation of tools and equipment.
