What must be removed from your tools before washing them?

Visible hair
Excessive moisture
Battery acid
Plastic packaging

The correct answer is: Visible hair

To maintain hygiene and ensure proper cleaning of tools used in barbering, removing visible hair from the tools is essential before washing them. Hair can trap bacteria and dirt, making it difficult to sanitize the tools effectively. Failing to eliminate visible hair may result in inadequate cleaning, which can compromise safety and hygiene standards in a barbering environment. While excessive moisture and battery acid could be concerns in specific contexts, they do not directly relate to the routine cleaning of barbering tools. Plastic packaging is typically not an issue either, as it is not a common contaminant in this scenario. Thus, focusing on removing visible hair is critical to achieving a thorough clean and maintaining a safe working environment.
