Hello, I’m Sahel Shei.

My journey started when my family and I immigrated from Iran to Canada in 2003. Resilience and adaptability were built into me early on—traits that carried me straight into 3.5 years on the frontlines as an Emergency Room nurse. 

During those high-intensity 12-hour shifts, I ran into a constant frustration: finding scrubs that actually fit. As someone who lifts and stays active, traditional scrub brands never felt like it was engineered for a woman’s body. From awkward MIDDLE SEAMS to restrictive fabrics, standard scrubs simply weren't built for women who move. I knew I wasn't the only one feeling uncomfortable on shift. 

I  created Safa Scrubs to change the standard—designing performance-driven, elevated scrubs made specifically to honour women and deliver shift-long comfort, wherever you practice.
