Which item should always be included in a first aid kit for a barber?

Scissors
Antiseptic wipes
Hair clippers
Moldable wax

The correct answer is: Antiseptic wipes

Including antiseptic wipes in a first aid kit for barbers is essential because they help to clean and disinfect wounds, preventing infection from occurring after an injury has taken place. In a barbering environment, where tools are often in contact with skin and hair, having a means to quickly clean any nicks or cuts is critical for both the client's safety and the barber's hygiene practices. Antiseptic wipes are convenient, easy to use, and can effectively manage minor injuries that may happen during a service. Scissors, while useful in various situations, do not serve a primary role in first aid. Hair clippers are specific to barbering and do not have first aid applications, and moldable wax is designed for hairstyling rather than medical care. Therefore, the inclusion of antiseptic wipes ensures that health protocols are maintained, addressing immediate first aid needs in a professional setting.
