Pre-Appointment Check List

Ensuring Successful Screenings & Treatments:
Pre-Appointment Checklist

  • Hair should be clean and tangle-free before head screening or total treatment (no gel or styling products on hair). Fine-toothed metal nit combs must be able to pass through the hair and along the scalp for screenings and Total Treatments. The outcome of treatments and screenings cannot be guaranteed if we cannot pass nit combs through the hair. 

  • Total Treatments take an average of 2 hours to complete (depending on the length and thickness of hair). Our objective is to ensure 100% eradication in a single visit. To guarantee complete relief in a single treatment, please afford the necessary time to work through the process. Note: children will need to sit through the entire process. We will do our best to accommodate breaks and consider the child's needs. We recommend providing access to favorite movies, TV shows, iPads, etc., to help entertain children throughout the process.
