A barber cape is a garment used during haircuts or barber services and serves several functions:
Protection: It protects the client's clothing from hair clippings, debris, and other materials, helping the client stay clean and tidy.
Hygiene: It prevents hair products (such as hair sprays or gels) from getting on the client's clothes and makes it easier to clean up hair clippings and other residues.
Comfort: It enhances the client's comfort. Capes are usually made from soft and lightweight materials, providing a more comfortable experience for the client.
