The Perfect Hairstyle for Medical Professionals

By Scrubadoo‘s Jen Hankin

Getting ready for work doesn’t just involve a shower and clean scrubs. You can’t forget that hair! Your image and the way you carry yourself is vital to your professional career. First impressions really do matter, especially if your sporting that lab coat! Too much hair can get in the way and look very unprofessional on the job. Certain styles and cuts are better than others. It all depends on your hair texture, face shape and your own personal style.

Not sure how to manage that mane? Take a style tip from us for some ideas for your perfect hairstyles in Scrubs:

The High Pony

This ultra sleek, out of the way style is trendy on the red carpet as well as during rounds. Got some extra time and want to add a finished look, twist your hair around your pony to hide the hair tie.

Be A Bun Head

A bun keeps your hair out of the way, off your shoulders and looks fab too! Keep it messy or neat and clean, both are acceptable.

A Braided Twist

 Brighten up indoors with a spark of summer with a fun headband braid! Combine this look with a high pony for added spunk and out of the way hair.

Short and Sweet

For males and females nothing is easier to manage than a nice, short and sweet cut. It says, “I’m professional and I won’t hide behind my hair!”.

Hairstyles to Avoid

Anything that distracts from patients and coworkers from their jobs is just not work appropriate! Big hair, and crazy color should be avoided!
