KimKaps was started in 2005 by a surgical nurse longing for an alternative to the disposable blue “mops” she and the rest of the surgical team wore on their heads during the long hours in the operating room. She knew these “mops” contain fiberglass, which damages and breaks hair, but most of all, they’re UGLY! She designed and began making scrub hats for herself out of the cutest fabrics she could find. Soon her colleagues begged her to make them cuter in the OR, too, and before long, she was outfitting the surgical teams in her hospital with her creations. Since launching KimKaps, Kim and her creative team have brought a world of cute to the world of scrubs with distinct styles and the best quality and prices in the industry.
