Delivery details
Our hijab scrub cap provides full head and neck coverage for Muslim healthcare workers – designed for nurses, doctors, surgeons, and allied health professionals who need modest headwear for clinical work. This reusable hijab scrub cap is cut from breathable 100% premium cotton with a secure, no-tie fit that stays in place during long procedures.
Details
Style: Full head and neck coverage with secure fit, no ties required
Material: 100% cotton, naturally hypoallergenic
Sizes: XS-2XL fits heads from under 51cm to over 65cm, depending on style (view sizing guide)
Care: Wash at 60°C where NHS workwear policy applies. In non-surgical settings like vet and dental practices, a normal wash is fine. Some customers put plain caps through autoclaves, though it shortens their life
Production: Made to order in Sheffield, UK. Most orders dispatch within 2 working days, and more customisation takes longer
Colours: 30+ professional shades available on hand, 90+ for bulk orders
Complete coverage: Hair and neck fully covered in one piece
Secure fit: Stays in place during procedures without constant adjustment
Reusable: made to be washed and worn for years rather than binned after a shift. One full-time wearer on two sessions a day would otherwise get through around 464 disposable caps a year
Digital passport: every cap carries a sewn-in QR code linking to its own Medicus cap passport
Delivery: UK Royal Mail Tracked 48 from £3.99, faster options at checkout, worldwide shipping available
