How to Wear a Surgical Cap with Elastic

Wanna learn how to wear a special head cap for doctors? It’s called a surgical cap, and it has a stretchy part to keep it on your head. I’m gonna show you how to put it on super easy. This cap keeps your hair hidden so everything stays nice and clean. Let’s do it together!

Fix Your Hair First

Okay, start with your hair. If it’s long, grab a hair tie and make a ponytail or a little bun. This keeps your hair from sticking out. If your hair is short, just pat it down with your hands. We don’t want any hair sneaking out of the cap, okay?

Hold the Cap Right

Now, take the cap in your hands. Hold it open like a big circle. See that stretchy band? That goes at the back. Put the front part on your forehead, just above your eyes. Let the rest of the cap hang over your head like a little cover.

Pull It Over Your Head

Time to slide it on! Pull the cap gently back over your head. Make sure it covers all your hair, from the top to the back of your neck. If you see any hair sticking out, tuck it in with your fingers. We want it all inside the cap!

Make the Stretchy Part Fit

Check the stretchy band at the back. It should feel comfy around your head, down by your neck. This keeps the cap from falling off. Look for any loose hair around the edges and tuck it in. We’ve got to keep it all hidden!

Check If It’s Okay

Last thing, make sure it feels good. The cap shouldn’t squeeze too hard. It should sit just right. Also, make sure it’s not over your eyes. If it is, push it up a tiny bit.

Why We Wear It

Wearing this cap is a big job! It stops your hair from getting in the way or making things dirty. In places like hospitals, keeping clean is super important. So, putting it on right helps everyone stay safe.
