Scrub caps for long hair: the Dorothea
+
The Dorothea is our scrub cap for long hair. It’s roomier than a standard cap, so all your hair fits inside, bun included.
Its double fastening combines elastic at the nape with ties at the back that you adjust to your head, so your hair stays gathered under the cap.
Dimensions: 59 cm head circumference at rest, stretching to 67 cm, and 12 cm high. One size, adjustable.
In theatre and beyond
+
A roomy cap is the usual choice in theatre when your hair is long or thick, and it works just as well at the dental surgery, the veterinary practice or the clinic.
Like all our caps, it’s unisex and comes in a wide range of fun prints and plain fabrics.
Satin-lined versions for curly hair
+
Some Dorothea caps come with a satin lining: the fabric glides over your hair and helps reduce friction and frizz. Handy if you follow the Curly Girl Method.
Look for ‘Satin-Lined’ in the product name.
Personalised and matching
+
As an option, add your name, your specialty or both (on two lines) in embroidery. For a coordinated look, many prints also come as a lanyard or a pocket organiser.
