Scrub sets are available in many colors and designs these days. How do you decide which color scrubs to buy? Do you buy your favorite colors, or do you buy colors that look good on you? Whatever be the reasoning behind your color choices, it’s a known fact that the colors we prefer to wear say something about who we are. We are subconsciously attracted to certain colors and deviate towards those by default. Find out what your scrub color says about who you really are.
White Scrubs
When you wear white scrubs even when white scrubs are not mandated, you’re saying something. White is symbolic of purity, innocence, idealism and a certain intolerance towards dirt, stains and infections. Your white scrub denotes you as a person who likes perfection, cleanliness and truth. Your professionalism and neatness will be appreciated by others, but it’s likely they’ll also keep their distance from you from fear of criticism.
Red Scrubs
The Red personality is outgoing, vigorous, impulsive and aggressive. People don’t accidentally wear red clothes – only those people who feel attracted by red will wear red clothes. When people see you wearing red scrubs, they will feel drawn towards you, as red is a sensual color. They will also see you as someone forthright and formidable. People who prefer red show a remarkable zest for life, even the quiet ones.
Maroon Scrubs
Maroon is a deep, mature red, and it indicates a person who’s learnt the lessons of life. Very young people are seldom attracted to maroon. A maroon person comes across as mature, likable and generous. Nurses who prefer maroon scrubs reflect the qualities of a muted Red personality, retaining the warmth and enthusiasm but with reduced aggression.
Pink Scrubs
Nurses who prefer pink scrubs come across as loving, affectionate, and a little maternal.

Orange Scrubs
Nurses who are flamboyant and fun loving by nature will prefer orange scrubs. Sober and sedate people won’t wear bright orange scrubs. The shade of orange that you wear will tell a lot about you. If it’s a bright orange, you come across as gregarious, with no apparent care in the world. A muted orange might indicate a shy but still gregarious personality. Orange indicates drama, fickleness and indecisiveness on the negative side and strength, fearlessness, curiosity on the positive side.
Yellow Scrubs

Yellow wearers are intellectual, clear and precise thinkers, with lofty ideals and strong opinions about themselves. The negative is that at times yellow wearers might prefer freedom to responsibility.

When you wear green scrubs, people sense that you prefer harmony, balance, peace, hope, gentleness and sincerity. People who prefer green scrubs are forthright and candid; they advocate peace and refinement. The negative side is that green wearers tend to hide, are too modest, and might be exploited unfairly.
Blue Scrubs
