Product Overview
The PR116 Premier waterproof salon gown is an essential component for any professional hairdressing or barbering environment. Designed to provide comprehensive full-body coverage, this gown acts as a reliable barrier against the various hazards of the trade, from stray hair cuttings to spilled lotions and chemical treatments. Its generous proportions ensure that clients remain clean and dry throughout their service, maintaining a high standard of professional hygiene and customer care while protecting their underlying clothing.
Key Features
- Bleach Resistant Fabric: The material is specifically engineered to withstand contact with hair bleach and other salon chemicals, ensuring the gown maintains its professional appearance and structural integrity over time.
- Adjustable Hook and Loop Fastening: This secure closure allows for a comfortable and customised fit around the neck, easily accommodating a wide range of client sizes.
- Integrated Fabric Hook: A practical design addition that allows for tidy storage on a peg or hook between appointments, keeping the workspace organised and the gown crease-free.
- Substantial Coverage: Measuring 145cm in length and 123cm in width, this gown provides extensive protection for the client’s front, back, and sides while they are seated.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% polyester with a specialised polyurethane coating, this gown offers a sophisticated balance between protection and comfort. The fabric is specifically designed to be waterproof, ensuring that liquids bead off the surface rather than soaking through to the client's clothes. Despite its protective qualities, the material remains a lightweight fabric, preventing clients from feeling overly warm or restricted during long appointments. The garment is also SEDEX and REACH accredited, highlighting a commitment to ethical manufacturing and chemical safety standards.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that consistent branding is vital for any modern salon or barber shop. This gown is suitable for both print and embroidery, allowing you to display your business identity clearly. Embroidery provides a sophisticated, tactile finish for smaller logos or stylist names, projecting a professional appearance that stands up well to frequent laundering. For larger, more striking graphics on the back of the gown, our high-quality printing services offer a bold and clear alternative. Our expert in-house team in Telford has been perfecting these customisation techniques since 1976, ensuring your logo is applied with technical precision.
Use Cases
This gown is primarily designed for use in professional hair salons and traditional barber shops. However, its waterproof and bleach-resistant nature also makes it an excellent choice for beauty therapists performing facials or body treatments, as well as hospitality or spa settings where staff or clients require temporary protection from spillages during specific aesthetic tasks.

Practical Advice
As a 'one size' garment, this gown is designed to be highly versatile. We recommend ensuring the hook and loop fastening is closed before placing the gown in a washing machine; this prevents the hooks from catching on the polyester fabric of other gowns and extends the life of the garment. The lightweight nature of the fabric means it can be comfortably layered over any client's outfit without causing overheating.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance and hygiene of your salon gowns is straightforward but requires adherence to the specified guidelines to ensure longevity. We recommend a machine wash at 60°C. Washing at this temperature is particularly beneficial in a salon environment as it effectively removes oils, product residues, and bacteria, ensuring a sanitary experience for every client.
Failure to wash at the recommended temperature may result in persistent stains or the build-up of chemical residues, which could eventually degrade the polyurethane coating and compromise the gown's waterproof capabilities over time.
