At Home Comb Outs

/in , , , /by

We offer our product line for curbside pickup or shipped directly to your house! To order, visit our online store.  Every purchase comes with over the phone lice advice from one of our trained clinicians.

 

There are several reasons a family doesn’t want to get a full treatment. Our commitment to our community is to get and keep everyone lice free, and we are willing to do whatever to takes to achieve that. We sell everything that we use in our in-clinic services.

 

Here’s a quick run through for those of you at home. The comb out procedure is the same one that we use here, for both head checks and comb outs.

 

Basic Instructions

  • Divide hair into four portions and clip to keep it out of the way. Measure the middle part from the forehead above the nose to the middle of the neck, and side to side from ear to ear.
  • Start at the bottom of the head, right above the neck. Take down and comb portions of an inch at a time. Put the hair above it back in the clip so you won’t get it mixed up.  Comb using our Slippery Nit Saline Spray or dry.
  • This MUST be done every day. Try to go through the entire head. It will take between 15-30 minutes, depending on the size of the head.
  • The first day you apply goop is Day 1. Comb through the hair every day until you have had four comb-outs without finding a nit. On days 1, 10 and 20, use KLC Treatment Goop. This will kill anything that might have hatched from a missed nit. 

Things To Remember!!

  • The flat of the comb must touch the scalp. Lice lay eggs as close to the skin as possible, so you have to get as close as you can to the skin to get all the nits. 
  • Comb downwards, through the previous section. This ensures you won’t miss nits at the part lines. 
  • When you start the next section, make sure you get the part line. 
  • At the end, go over “hot spots” again (behind the ears, all along the hair line, the center part line). 

KLC Treatment Goop needs to cover every hair from root to tip. Make sure you cover the wispy hairs around the face and neck.  Wash out with KLC Clarifying Shampoo.

One Marvelous Lice-Free Year!

/in , /by

This weekend marks one year since we opened our doors! Thank you to each and every one of you we have seen. You let us be a part of your family while you are here, and we truly enjoy helping our customers.

Here are some things we’ve done in the last year:

  • seen 605 families
  • checked over 1,000 heads!
  • done 717 Signature or Express treatments
  • employ 5 people from our community
  • checked and treated (for free) families in our community who could not otherwise afford it via our Easter Lice Egg Hunt
  • taught many how to do at-home comb-outs with our products to get lice free

On a personal note, we have made some great friendships here. Our clients notice that these are not just my coworkers, these are my friends. As much as you let us hang out with your family, you are hanging out with mine. This started as a job and became a passion project for all of us, and I am very grateful to have a place like this in my life.

They say that if you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life. Our customers and my fellow employees make it so I get paid to have fun, and I’m glad I get to continue this for another year.
