Why didn't the drugstore lice shampoo work on my child?

Most over-the-counter kits use pesticides that 'super lice' have become resistant to over time. Additionally, these chemicals often fail to kill the nits (eggs), which have a protective shell. If even a few nits survive, they will hatch and restart the infestation within days. Professional manual removal is the only way to ensure every bug and egg is physically gone.

Is professional lice removal safe for toddlers and pregnant women?

Absolutely! At Lice Beware, we use a non-toxic, enzyme-based approach that is completely safe for all ages, including infants and expectant mothers. We avoid harsh pesticides and chemicals, focusing instead on meticulous manual combing and safe, natural products that effectively loosen nits without irritating the scalp or causing health concerns.

How long does a professional lice removal appointment take?

A typical appointment takes between 60 to 90 minutes per person, depending on the length of the hair and the severity of the infestation. Because we are experts at what we do, we can work much faster and more accurately than a parent trying to do it at home. You'll leave our clinic with a clear head and a plan for prevention.
