Regardless which treatment option you select, our certified head lice technician will always start with a very thorough screening to determine if in fact you are positive for lice and/or eggs(nits). At that point they will make a treatment recommendation.
Our clinicians will carefully inspect the hair and scalp. If an active case of head lice is confirmed and a lice treatment plan is chosen, the SCREENING FEE WAIVED for that individual. Because lice spread quickly through a household, it is very important that all family members are checked and treated once an active case has been confirmed.
