What is the primary purpose of using a cape in barber services?

The primary purpose of using a cape in barber services is to protect the client's clothing and skin. Capes act as a barrier between the client and the hair being cut or styled, preventing hair clippings, products, and water from coming into contact with the client’s attire or skin. This not only enhances the comfort of the client during the service but also maintains cleanliness and professionalism in the salon environment. By keeping debris contained, the cape allows for a more enjoyable experience and a quicker clean-up for the barber after the service is completed.
