What’s the best type of scrub cap for hot summer shifts?
Hey everyone! With summer heat already kicking in, I’m really struggling to stay comfortable during long shifts. My regular scrub caps feel stuffy and make my head sweat like crazy—especially on back-to-back days in the OR or clinic.
I’ve been looking into lighter, more breathable options made specifically for warm weather. I heard some brands make summer scrub caps with lightweight fabric that still hold up well and stay secure. Ideally, I want something that doesn’t overheat my scalp but also keeps my hair in place and looks professional.
Has anyone here tried scrub caps designed for summer?
Do they actually feel cooler during long hours?
Are there any options that balance comfort with style and durability?
I found this collection that looks interesting: https://paradisecaps.com/collections/summer-scrub-caps — they offer a range of fun prints and claim to use breathable fabric. I’m wondering if they live up to the hype before I order.
Would love to hear if anyone here has made the switch to a summer-specific cap and what your experience has been. Thanks!
