A flight attendant has revealed the strict rules workers have to follow as she compared it to being in the military.
TikTok user and flight attendant Kat Kamalani took to the app on July 7 to open up about the "strict" reality of the job, including the rules around flight attendants' appearances.
She explains in the video: "So what most people don't know is that you have to follow a super strict guideline when you're a flight attendant, your airline gets to dictate everything from head to toe on the way you look. So your nail color, hair color, your lip color, your make-up, the way your shoes look, your bags... every single thing."
Watch the video TikTok below:Kat then explains what happened to her when she was training for the job.
"When I was in training, they had a whole entire team dedicated to the way you look and making sure you're on point. You can't have any tattoos showing, the length of your dress or your uniform, the way you tie your bow - it was super strict. I swear that I felt like I was in the military because of how strict they are," she explained.
The flight attendant said that there are consequences if you don't follow the rules and "you can get in big trouble" if an airport manager "sees you off guideline."
Kat concluded the video by saying: "So being a flight attendant is super strict on the way you look."
Needless to say, the video did not go unnoticed as it racked up over 110,000 views, at the time of writing.
Reacting to the video, one TikTok user wrote: "Same for working at the airport for the guidelines. Had to wear heels at all times, certain nail polished allowed hair must be up, and [the] list goes on."
A second wrote: "Yes this is in most wor spaces my daughter can't wear nail polish at all at the Whataburger so..."
A third added: "well... it's called a UNI-form. Uni means one, so there should be ONE form, the form they are PAYING you to present."
