Embroidered staff polos are the workhorse piece of the med spa non-clinical wardrobe. The polo reads polished, holds the spa logo cleanly, and is comfortable through a full shift behind the front desk or across consultation rooms. Below is the polo selection by role, the per-piece cost, and the embroidery setup that keeps every polo on-brand across staff changes.
| Role | Polo pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Front desk receptionist | Sport-Tek performance polo | Wicks through an 8-hour shift, holds shape, embroidery sits clean |
| Consultation specialist | Gildan premium cotton pique polo | Soft hand reads warmer, classic look in the consult room |
| Marketing / social | Sport-Tek performance polo (slim cut) | Photographs cleanly, breathes under hot lighting |
| Ownership / management | Gildan women's premium cotton polo | Refined drape for events, owner-facing meetings |
Embroidery on a polo holds through years of wash cycles and reads as more premium in the consultation environment. Printed logos can crack or fade after 30 to 50 washes which is well within a single staff member's annual rotation. The embroidered Sport-Tek performance polo at $34.88 VIP holds the logo clean for the life of the shirt, which is the same reason corporate uniform programs almost always pick embroidery over print for polos.
| Staff member | Polos per year | Cost per | Annual cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 front-desk receptionists | 3 each (6 total) | $34.88 | $209.28 |
| 2 consultation specialists | 3 each (6 total) | $34.88 | $209.28 |
| 2 marketing / management | 3 each (6 total) | $34.88 | $209.28 |
