Never have I ever thought that I would be developing characteristics based on what kind of face mask my peers are wearing. This is our new world, and this is my attempt to make some positives out of the situation. In no way am I here to stereotype masks, just a little fun in which I believe many others can resonate with.
1. Surgical

The disposable surgical masks are most likely the most effective mask, however it is the most basic. Those who wear these particular masks either wear the same one everyday or are the reason Amazon was sold out of them, no in between. Jokes, jokes, however this type of person is most likely super chill and is maybe somewhat lazy, considering these are disposable.
2. Tie around the head

You must have sensitive ears, or dislike the feeling of your ears being pushed forward by elastics. I get it, this is not a pleasant feeling. All due respect to you, please let me know hairstyles that coordinate with this statement mask!
3. Face shield

4. N95

They are quite expensive, but they seem to work the best, from my research. Every time I see someone on campus wearing one, I instantly think of construction workers and tend to unconsciously take them much more seriously.
5. Decorative
If we have to wear them all day every day, might as well make them cute. Right? These packs from Athleta are all the rage on Villanova's campus, and they go with any outfit! Those wearing these masks most likely need their morning coffee after their daily yoga sesh!
