    My husband's face was pale. "Babe," he began. I could tell the news wasn't good. I sunk slowly into…read morea chair. "She has them. I'm sure of it. Positive, even. She has lice." I felt the color drain from my own face. Surely he must be wrong. This can't be! Lice? Lice?! No. Nooooo! I don't do "bugs". I don't camp. I don't particularly enjoy hikes in the forest. I hate mosquitos. Lice?! On my kid's head? NO FXCKING WAY. After sending my lice-riddled daughter out to play so she wouldn't witness mommy's meltdown, I flipped out and somehow--by Divine Intervention, maybe?--wound up finding the number for Midwest Lice Specialists & passing it to my husband who called immediately. He spoke with Jeanne who was lovely & reassuring and secured my daughter an appointment for that same night. I then put the kids and pets on the front lawn, doused the whole place with gasoline, and tossed a match on my way out the door. Kidding, but I certainly thought about it. (Look, I have five kids who play together constantly and truly felt like it would be OMGZ LICE FOR EVERYONE FOREVER. It wasn't. My biggest kid--and only son--shaved his head a few days later when we discovered a few nits, but so far...it's been contained to the two kids. KNOCKING ON WOOD FOR.EV.ER. But I digress...) The treatment was two parts: heat & oil and took about two hours with the length and thickness of my daughter's hair. Jeanne was amazing--she's a mom & she gets it--and my daughter was given a snack and a little stuffed animal & was as happy as could be. The cost was $165, but get this: it's one treatment only...guaranteed. Totally & completely worth the price paid. She gave us tips for delousing the house and while it's honestly been quite a bit of work, it's entirely worth it to keep our crib lice-free. In short, I hope to never ever ever ever EVER have to go through this again, but if I do? Midwest Lice Specialists all the way. PS - Their motto is "bug off!". But seriously, though... #nailedit

    I was the horrible mother that attempted to drop off my kid at camp only to be turned away. I had…read moreno idea...seriously NO IDEA my kid had lice. Suddenly our two week long hiatus from having a kid was in jeopardy and my darling was a puddle of disappointed sadness at our feet. I get in the car in shock and immediately start calling around...on a Sunday...after 3pm. I'm not driving back home with this situation. By some miracle I find Jeanne. She can take us in a little over the time it takes to drive there and grab some dinner. She sensed our horror and seemed genuinely concerned for our wellbeing. It was the most pleasant experience I would think lice removal could be. She checked us all, she treated the infected, we laughed, we watched tv, we had coffee and ate snacks. It was not the worst way to spend a couple hours...seriously. She answered all our questions. She gave us the low down of what we needed to do and what would probably be overkill. We went for the one and done guaranteed treatment and I am so glad that we did. Kid was back and cleared for camp having only 24 hours elapsed. We are all now lice free, better educated about prevention, and have moved on. I would not hesitate to send my friends to Jeanne.

    No one ever wants to think about lice. Unfortunately, these little things can run rampant in middle…read moreschoolers. My daughter came home with them residing on her scalp and hair. She was mortified and I was horrified. I never had lice, my sisters never had lice, my two other kids never had it. I notified the moms of my daughter's besties out of courtesy. Two of the moms recommended I go to the live salon in Naperville. After doing an over the counter treatment I called the salon and made an appointment. I got in the next day. I got checked for $35 and had nothing. My daughter required treatment for two hours. They charge $100 per hour. It was worth it for me. Peace of mind. The salon was clean and the employees were nice. I recommend them for your lice evictions.

    Well, this is the type of place no one wants to have to visit but sure happy they exist when you…read moreneed it! Thanks to a lice outbreak at our school we discovered a couple of nits in my daughter's hair. This was our first lice experience and Shiny Strands took great care of us, bit of a combo lice removal/therapy session. I left having instructions on how to do combing maintenance and check for future lice. Went home that night and checked my son and unfortunately found a couple in his head. But thanks to the comb and the instructions I gave him a good comb out and when I brought him in for a check they said I'd gotten all of them, so the instructions were great! Would definitely recommend.

    Shiny Strands - Very cozy- has a salon feel, not a "clinic" feel- made the kids feel so much more relaxed.
