Salon Apron: What Hairdressers Wear & Why

The overall that a hairdresser wears is most commonly called a salon apron.

However, it can also be referred to as:

* Stylist apron

* Hairdressing apron

* Barber apron (though typically more masculine)

* Smock (less common, but some are designed like a smock)

* Cape (though this is usually for the client, not the stylist)

* Hair apron

These aprons are usually made of water-resistant or waterproof material to protect the stylist's clothing from water, hair dye, and other chemicals. They often have pockets for storing combs, scissors, and other tools.
