Disney Look

To work at Walt Disney World, you must be in complete compliance with all Disney Look guidelines, including hair, makeup, body piercings, tattoos and body modifications.

Quick Guide

Hair

Hair

Hairstyles should be clean and well maintained. Hair below shoulder length should be secured if it falls forward over the face or covers the nametag. If the hair color is changed, it should be in natural-occurring hues. Examples of hair colors that are not considered natural would be colors such as blue, green, pink, purple, etc.

Facial Hair

Facial Hair

Facial hair should be neatly groomed and well maintained. The shaving of lines or shapes in facial hair is permitted provided they do not depict offensive words or symbols.

Tattoo

Tattoos

Visible tattoos are permitted, with the exception of placement on the face, head or neck. Tattoos must be no larger than the Cast Member’s hand when fully extended with the fingers held together. Undergarments, which include matching fabric tattoo sleeves, are permitted for coverage of larger tattoos on the arms. Tattoos that depict nudity, offensive or inappropriate language or images, or that violate Company policies are not permitted.

Eyeware

Eyewear

The frames and lenses of both prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses should be solid or tortoiseshell in color with only minimal contrasting logos. Eyeglasses and sunglasses should not detract from the costume or contradict the theme of the show. Decorated lenses are not permitted.

Hair

Jewelry

Jewelry guidelines may vary by line of business due to safety guidelines. A visible wrist and/or ankle bracelet, less than one inch in width, as well as a modest visible necklace in good taste and in good condition, may be worn. A ring may be worn on any finger; however, only one ring on each hand is permitted. Watches should have minimal ornamentation. Facial piercings of any type are not permitted.

Earrings

Tattoos

Visible tattoos are permitted, with the exception of placement on the face, head or neck. Tattoos must be no larger than the Cast Member’s hand when fully extended with the fingers held together. Undergarments, which include matching fabric tattoo sleeves, are permitted for coverage of larger tattoos on the arms. Tattoos that depict nudity, offensive or inappropriate language or images, or that violate Company policies are not permitted.

Shoes

If you work in a Culinary, Custodial, Food & Beverage, Lifeguard or Recreation role, you will be provided company-issued, slip-resistant safety shoes. You will receive more information during your arrival week.

For all other roles, you are required to provide your own shoes to wear at work. Your training schedule, which you will receive during your arrival week, will provide the exact shoe specifications (color, style, safety requirements, etc.).  It is recommended all Cast Members wear slip-resistant shoes as a safety precaution.

  • Keep fingernails trimmed and filed (not to extend beyond the tip of the finger).
  • No fingernail polish and/or artificial nails.
  • No jewelry on arms or hands, including wristwatches and medical information jewelry.
