What is the difference between a disposable hair net and a disposable bouffant cap?

People use disposable hair nets and disposable bouffant caps to keep hair covered. They might look the same, but they do different jobs. Here is what makes each one special.

What is a disposable hair net?

A disposable hair net is made with thin, small holes. The mesh keeps hair in place, but it has openings you can see through.

Hair nets are great because they:

• Keep your hair back neatly.
• Allow air to flow freely.
• Feel cool, not hot, when wearing.

Best places to use hair nets:

• Cooking places like kitchens.
• Food factories for workers.
• Restaurants to keep food clean. Check our disposable hair nets for cooking and food service.

What is a disposable bouffant cap?

A disposable bouffant cap is made with a light, soft fabric. It has no holes you can see through. It covers your hair fully and does not let hair out at all.

Bouffant caps are helpful because they:

• Completely cover all of your hair.
• Keep germs and dust away.
• Give better protection in clean places.

Best places to use bouffant caps:

• Hospitals, doctors, and nurses. See our medical bouffant clip caps.
• Clean rooms or special work areas.
• When preparing medicine or medical tools.

The main differences are below:

Which one do I choose?

Pick a hair net if you:

• Want something light.
• Work around food or produce.
• Only need basic hair holding.

Pick a bouffant cap if you:

• Need full hair covering.
• Work in places like hospitals.
• Need to keep hair and germs away fully.
