Made by a nurse. Worn by nurses. 🎃

Hi, we're Blu Essentials — a small handmade scrub cap shop right here in Durham, NC. Mel, an OR nurse, started sewing caps so nurses could bring a little joy to every shift. One print at a time.

This season, we're in love with Sweet Midnight. A bold black print filled with candy corn and autumn treats, crafted from 100% cotton — breathable for long hours and beautiful enough to make your patients smile.

Available now in Euro and Satin-Lined styles, both at 3 units. Halloween is 24 days away.
