Keep your hair out of the way to prevent stray hairs from contaminating food.

Bouffant-style hats and hairnets cover your entire head. For short- to medium-length hair, use those with a 20" to 21" stretched diameter; for longer or thicker hair, choose a 24" stretched diameter. Hats and hairnets with a neck guard also extend down the back of your neck to cover neck hairs.

Metal-detectable hats and hairnets have a built-in metal clip that will set off metal detectors if they fall into your food line. They’re also bright blue, which makes them easy to spot. Use them to help you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs.

Polypropylene fabric offers economical protection in environments where liquid splashes are not a concern.
