A hashed password becomes an encrypted password in on the server it is stored in. So if your password was something like "Salt&Pepp3r", the server would store the password as something like: "2fde1c67a2d28fced840ee1bb76". Since a hashed password operates in only one direction, it's almost impossible for someone to hack the server and reverse the password. In other words see the "2fde1c67a2d28fced840ee1bb76" in storage, enter that and have it translate back to "Salt&Pepp3r", it won't happen.
