hairnet

Coiffure containment device

A hairnet is a fine mesh covering worn over the hair to keep it in place or contain it.

Food service workers wear hairnets to prevent loose hairs from falling into what they're preparing.

Hairnets also hold pin curls or rollers in place while sleeping: She went to bed in curlers and a hairnet.
