Her hair is always styled in a sleek black bob, which she has maintained since her joining. When she walks around the station, she tends to keep her hands behind her back or cross them against her chest when standing still. This is a conscious effort on her part to avoid using excessive hand gestures when she speaks, a habit she developed during her early days as a junior counsellor.
