So that it does not get caught up in the equipment or experiment that you are performing.

So it doesn't get caught in any chemical reaction, or moving machinery, such as 'rotovaps', or bunsen flames,

etc.,

As a chemist we do not worry about how glamorous you may want to be, but in the lab. safety is paramount.

Hair, tied, up ; NOT loose

Lab. Coats , buttoned up, NOT open

Goggles/spectacle/ glasses on ; Eyes protected (NB I use 'clear plastic 'blinkers' with my glasses in the lab).

Rubber / nitrile gloves on ; skin ( on hands protected).

In or adjacent to every lab. there should be an emergency (water) shower, for major spills.
