easyJet — Appearance & Grooming
easyJet publishes uniform standards covering grooming, conduct in uniform and care of the uniform itself, but they are practical rather than prescriptive. The tone matches the airline's reputation as the friendlier of Europe's low-cost giants.
Grooming · easyJet
- Hair
- Neat and safe for the cabin, in a natural colour, styled so it holds across four to six sectors from an early report. easyJet does not publish a list of permitted styles.
- Make-up
- No published specification and no mandated palette. The expectation is a professional, put-together look consistent with the uniform standards document rather than a prescribed set of shades.
- Facial hair
- easyJet does not publish a beard rule. Neatly maintained facial hair is normal at UK and European short-haul carriers, but confirm at the base assessment day rather than assuming.
- Nails
- Clean, short and practical — long extensions are awkward on a sales-heavy turnaround operation regardless of what the standard says. No shade or length limits are published.
- Glasses & contacts
- Prescription glasses are accepted with conventional frames and no published restriction. A spare pair is worth having on early-start days.
- Piercings
- Discreet piercings are generally workable, though nothing facial. easyJet does not publish a numbered limit, so keep the assessment day conservative.
- Jewellery
- Plain and professional, and safe in the cabin. There is no published list beyond that general expectation.
- Tattoos in uniform
- Tattoos must not be visible in uniform, and coverable ones are accepted — but easyJet is explicit that head, face and neck tattoos are barred, since no uniform covers them. Because bases across nine countries fly the same standard, the rule does not soften depending on where you are based.
- Headscarf
- easyJet does not publish a headscarf option for cabin crew as a named uniform item. Ask recruitment when applying to a specific base, as local practice may vary across the European network.
- Uniform
- The navy uniform with the airline's orange accents, standard across more than 30 bases and issued during the three to four week paid new-entrant course. The uniform standards document that accompanies it covers grooming and conduct while you are wearing it.
Grooming rules change more often than any other requirement. Verify them on the airline's official careers page before you buy anything or book a hair appointment.
