Lice Removal Treatment - Lice Lifters DFW

CREEPY CRAWLY READS BOOKS TO HELP KIDS DEAL WITH LICE

Posted on August 10, 2015 by Lice Lifters DFW

When kids get lice, treating them is a twofold proposition. Most obviously, you want to get rid of the little buggers ASAP – not only to eliminate your child’s itchiness and discomfort, but also to prevent spreading the infestation. The other aspect of a lice outbreak that parents must address is emotional in nature – the shame and embarrassment a child often feels as a result of having head lice.

Books can be a great way to start a conversation about head lice and take a lighthearted look at the situation. Whether read at home together or given to a teacher whose class has experienced an outbreak, here are a few titles to get you started:

Bugs in My Hair!
By David Shannon

Known for modern children’s classics like No, David!, Caldecott Honor recipient David Shannon offers a fun and informative read about head lice. Kids will take comfort in Shannon’s familiar illustrative style, giggle at his humorous tale, and pick up helpful facts along the way. Good news: As with all of our client stories here at #LiceLiftersDFW, this one has a happy ending.

Head Lice
By Elise Gravel

Part of a series of nonfiction books about disgusting creatures, Elise Gravel’s fact-filled book about head lice features cartoon style illustrations with text bubbles and plenty of silliness to balance the basic facts. Even grownups will get a chuckle from passages such as, “I might be small, but to your parents, I’m scarier than a lion.”

Yikes – Lice!
By Donna Caffey

This book shares one girl’s experience with lice using fun illustrations and a catchy rhyming format. Facts about lice are included on each spread, and text is at a level that even young children can understand.

Reading together about this creepy, crawly subject can help kids see that they aren’t alone when it comes to head lice. After all, the CDC estimates that between 6 and 12 million children between the ages of 3 and 11 contract head lice each year. If you’re struggling with stubborn lice in your household, please contact Lice Lifters DFW today.

MY FAMILY HAS LICE! What Do I Do?

Posted on July 7, 2015 by Lice Lifters DFW

It’s not as bad as you think

Whether it’s a dreaded call from the school nurse or the discovery of nits after a slumber party, discovering that your child has head lice is always bad news. The good news is that by taking action quickly, you can make the process of eliminating head lice in your family relatively painless. What’s more, there are some pesky myths out there that make lice removal in the home seem a whole lot worse than it actually is. Read on for our top tips to take control of a lice outbreak in your household.

Take action NOW. This is not the time to procrastinate in the face of an unpleasant task. Start the process ASAP to quickly eliminate head lice and prevent the infestation from spreading. That means letting school, child care, and friends know about the problem.
Get head checks for the entire family. If one person under your roof has lice, there’s a good possibility that others are infected as well. That’s why it’s best to have everyone in the family examined. Lice Lifters DFW offers professional head checks, and the examination fee is applied toward treatment if lice are found.
Get professional treatment. As a mom who has battled head lice, I can tell you that enlisting professionals will save you both time and serious anguish. In fact, when you follow the Lice Lifters DFW protocol, we guarantee the success of our treatment.
Clean wisely, not widely. While the idea of lice may disgust you, there’s no need to obsessively disinfect your entire home. Unlike fleas, lice require a human host to survive, so lice won’t lay eggs on sofas or stuffed toys. They don’t live on pets, and they don’t jump or fly. You’ll want to wash any bedding, clothing, and personal items (like brushes) that those infected have been in contact with over the past couple of days. In addition, a routine vacuuming of floors and furniture is in order. If you’re paranoid about pillows, plush bedtime buddies, or even hats and hair accessories, a spin on your dryer’s hot setting should put your fears to rest. Toxic insecticides and foggers are simply not necessary.

Hands down, the most important thing you can do to rid your household of lice is to make sure your family’s heads are lice free. At Lice Lifters DFW, we can not only eliminate lice and nits quickly, but we’ll do it using our nontoxic, natural treatment solution with no harmful pesticides. In addition to our regular business hours, we also offer after hours appointments upon request. Just call us at 972-805-1308 or email me at infodfw@licelifters.com.

SUMMER CAMP SHOULDN’T BE LOUSY

Posted on June 15, 2015 by Lice Lifters DFW

50% Off Lice Check For Campers

Summertime is just around the corner! For some kids, that means an unforgettable getaway at summer camp – but no one wants to take home memories of head lice. The reality is that any time you put a bunch of kids in close quarters, a head lice outbreak is a possibility.

Many camps perform head checks upon arrival at camp, and if your child is found to be infested, he or she will have to be treated and declared lice-free before admittance. This does help to cut down on lice outbreaks at camp, but it certainly presents an inconvenience and a delay to your family’s summer plans.

Some summer camps require a professional head lice check prior to arrival. Even if your child’s camp does not require this step, having a pre-camp lice check drastically reduces the chance that your camper will be turned away, making life much easier for mom and dad. That’s why this summer, Lice Lifters is offering pre-camp head checks for 50% off regular cost.

Don’t be taken by surprise – schedule an appointment today and let us perform an examination for head lice before your child heads off to summer camp. Our central Metroplex location in Frisco makes it easy to check this off your to-do list. Happy camping from all of us at Lice Lifters DFW!

HOW LICE LIFTERS IS DIFFERENT

3 Reasons to Choose Our All Natural Treatment

If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve discovered head lice in your family. And if you’re like most parents, you are now feverishly researching the best means to eliminate these unwelcome visitors. As a mom who’s been in your shoes, I get it. After attempting to rid my kids of lice through various and sundry means, I learned a lot about what works best. In fact, the experience led me to open Lice Lifters Treatment Center. The bottom line? Our approach is different from any of the nit-picking and lice removal competition. Here’s how:

Lice Lifters is Non-Toxic

Some services use only a nit comb. Other treatments involve harmful pesticides. Both approaches are flawed. Missing a single nit with a comb can mean a whole new outbreak down the road. And pesticides are not only toxic to your child, but lice have become resistant to them – they are only 50% effective at killing head lice.

Lice Lifters offers a unique one-two punch in the salon. First, The Lice Lifters ^® all-natural treatment kills 99.9% of live head lice in just 10 minutes, without use of harmful chemicals or pesticides. Second, we use a proprietary, micro-grooved nit comb to remove the offenders. After salon treatment, you’ll receive detailed instructions for follow up treatment at home. This non-toxic approach is the safest, most effective treatment available today.

Lice Lifters is Pleasant

If you think of lice elimination as a dreaded task, think again. Our beautiful facility is outfitted for the comfort of your family, with comfortable waiting rooms with refreshments, fun play areas, and DVD players in every treatment room. Coming to Lice Lifters is like a trip to the salon or spa! Plus, with our staff of “lifticians”, we can treat multiple family members at the same time, speeding up the process. Isn’t that a happy thought?

Lice Lifters is Guaranteed

After receiving treatment at Lice Lifters — having your entire family checked and/or treated, purchasing the recommended products, and following our easy at-home instructions to a T, your family should be lice-free. We know our system works, and that’s why we guarantee it for a full month. In the extremely rare instance that your uninvited guests return, we’ll take care of the problem free of charge.

In a perfect world, our kids would never bring home head lice from school, slumber parties, or camp. But in reality, the CDC estimates that 6 to 12 million children of preschool and elementary school age are infested in the United States each year. In other words, if you’re facing a lice infestation, you are not alone! Let us make the lice elimination process easy and pleasant – call Lice Lifters Treatment Center at 972-805-1308 to schedule your appointment.

LICE TREATMENT CENTER IS OPEN!

Natural Treatment for Unwelcome Critters

No one wants to deal with head lice – and I speak from experience. When an infestation made its way through my family, we spent hours upon hours of time across several removal sessions with a mobile nit-picking service. Hundreds of dollars later, the lice were still with us.

As it turns out, a nit comb may not be enough to eliminate these creepy creatures. And because lice have developed resistance to traditional pesticide treatments, they are only 50% effective at best. Who wants to douse their children in toxic chemicals, anyway?

So when the entrepreneurial bug bit (pun intended), a Lice Lifters franchise was the perfect fit. Lice Lifters offers a proven treatment approach that is both all-natural and highly effective treatment, so I’m proud to introduce this guaranteed system to the Dallas-Fort Worth area – we’re centrally located at 7000 Parkwood Blvd., Suite C300, in Frisco.

The unique Lice Lifters approach starts with a careful head check. We systematically and thoroughly check the hair and scalp for signs of nits (eggs), nymphs (young lice), and mature lice. Should we find evidence of six-legged squatters, it’s on to the eviction process.

Next, our highly trained “lifticians” use a proprietary, micro-grooved nit comb to remove eggs that can lead to more lice. A combination of technique and superior comb make this the most effective nit removal we’ve found.

Last, we apply The Lice Lifters^® all-natural treatment, which kills 99.9% of live head lice in just 10 minutes – all without exposing your precious cargo to harmful pesticides. Just for good measure, you’ll leave with the treatment solution in your hair, covered with a shower cap. Our clients leave with simple instructions for rinse out and follow up at home.

The entire salon treatment time averages from 1 ½ to 2 ½ hours. The Lice Lifters system is 100% guaranteed – head lice and nits will be a thing of the past for your family!

While there’s nothing desirable about a head lice infestation, Lice Lifters DFW aims to make the treatment experience as pleasant as possible. Your family will love our playroom, stocked with kid-friendly movies, games, chalkboard walls, and more. Our private treatment rooms feature personal DVD players to pass the time, and we also offer complimentary snacks and Wi-Fi access.

I honestly hope you’ll never need our services. But should head lice strike, we’re here to help! Just call us at 972-805-1308, email me at infodfw@licelifters.com, or visit liceliftersdfw.com.
