What You Can and Can't Wear to Visit Someone at Harrison County Jail
Dress code is one of the easiest reasons to lose a visit. Here's a simple, conservative checklist for visiting at Harrison County Jail so you don't get turned away at the door.
Harrison County Jail staff can deny your visit if they consider your outfit improper. Keep it simple and conservative. Wear a shirt of conservative length, stick to everyday clothing that isn't revealing, and remember: staff make the final call at check-in.
Do Examples
- ✓ Wear shoes (you need them to be admitted)
- ✓ Choose pants as your safest option
- ✓ If you wear shorts, keep them a conservative length
- ✓ Pick a shirt of conservative length
If your clothing is borderline, assume it will cost you the visit. The jail's administration can deny visitation for "improper" dress, and anything too revealing counts. When you're deciding between two options, go with the more covered-up choice. Nobody wants to turn around at the door.
- ✓ Do not arrive if you appear to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs (you will not be allowed to visit)
Required for female visitors: You must wear a brassiere for visitation.
Bringing a minor? Plan ahead. Rules for youth visitors can be strict and may change, so confirm what paperwork or supervision is expected before you make the trip.
- Ask what rule you’re being denied for. Staff can deny entry for improper dress, and knowing the exact issue helps you fix it quickly.
- Change into more conservative clothing. Shoes and a conservative-length shirt are part of proper attire, and shorts need to be a conservative length.
- Reschedule if the issue is conduct-related. If you appear to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs, you will not be allowed to visit, so plan to come back another day.
