Question 1

How long does a treatment take?

Accepted Answer

Treatment time varies depending on hair length, thickness, and severity of infestation. Most appointments range from 45–120 minutes.

Question 2

What products do you use?

Accepted Answer

We use natural and professional-grade products that are safe and effective. Our treatments are designed to kill lice and remove nits without harsh chemicals.

Question 3

Do you treat both kids and adults?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We treat children and adults of all ages. Our staff is trained to work patiently and gently, especially with kids.

Question 4

How do I know if my child has lice?

Accepted Answer

Common signs include itching, tickling sensations on the scalp, and visible nits near the scalp—especially behind the ears and crown of the head. A professional lice check is the most accurate way to confirm lice.

Question 5

What is head lice?

Accepted Answer

Head lice are tiny insects that live on the scalp and hair. They spread through direct head-to-head contact and lay eggs (nits) that attach to the hair shaft. Lice do not jump or fly, but they spread easily, especially among children.

Question 6

Do you guarantee lice won’t come back?

Accepted Answer

While our treatments are highly effective, we cannot guarantee against re-infestation. Lice can be picked up again from school, daycare, camps, or close contact.

Yes—most of our appointments are same-day or next-day when availability allows. Call us anytime and we’ll do our best to fit you in.

Do you offer in-home services?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in-home services are available on a limited basis and subject to availability. Additional service and travel fees apply.

Rechecks are strongly recommended and sometimes required to ensure the treatment was successful. All rechecks must be completed at our salon.

What do I need to do at home after treatment?

Accepted Answer

We provide clear after-care instructions, including cleaning tips and prevention steps. Following these instructions is important to prevent re-infestation.
