Hairdressing capes and aprons are essential protective accessories in any professional hair salon. They ensure hygiene, comfort, and a professional appearance during cutting, coloring, shaving, or styling. This workwear protects both the client and the hairdresser from hair, water, dyes, and chemicals—while remaining elegant and functional.
Capes are used to completely protect the client from hair residue, dye, and liquids. They are made of lightweight, water-repellent, and breathable materials such as nylon, polyester, or satin. Thanks to adjustable closures (snaps, Velcro, or hooks), they fit comfortably around any neck. Some models have an antistatic coating to prevent loose hair from clinging.
Hairdressing aprons are designed for the stylist themselves. They offer functional protection and freedom of movement while working. They often feature pockets for tools like combs, brushes, or clips, and are made of stain-resistant, easy-to-clean fabrics . Modern designs combine functionality with style —think fashionable faux leather or denim aprons with adjustable straps.
Key benefits:
✔ Protects clothing and skin against water and chemicals.

✔ Professional appearance and optimal wearing comfort.
✔ Adjustable closure – suitable for everyone.

Usage:
Fasten the cape or apron before starting the treatment. Make sure the closure is secure to prevent staining. Wash regularly with cold or lukewarm water and let it air dry to maintain the coating.
Additional tips:
Use dark colors (black, gray, navy) to minimize stains. Combine with disposable protection for intensive color treatments. Invest in multiple sets for rotation and hygiene.
