What is the best practice for cleaning surfaces in a barbershop?

Using a disinfectant approved by the EPA before and after services is the best practice for cleaning surfaces in a barbershop. This approach ensures that surfaces are not only clean but also free from harmful pathogens that could pose health risks to clients and barbers. EPA-approved disinfectants have undergone rigorous testing and are proven to be effective against a wide range of bacteria, viruses, and fungi that may be present in a barbershop environment.

Regular cleaning with soap and water, while useful for general dirt and debris, does not provide the same level of disinfection. Similarly, using any household cleaner may not guarantee that it has the necessary properties to effectively kill all harmful microorganisms. Simply using water is insufficient, as it does not have any disinfecting capabilities. Thus, employing EPA-approved disinfectants both before and after client services contributes significantly to maintaining a safe and hygienic barbershop environment.
