We were quoted in writing: "a lice treatment & nit removal for her $270 (flat rate)."…read more Once the technician arrived at our home, the price escalated dramatically. The invoice was initially $1,347.39 and was only reduced to about $1,100 after we disputed the charges and removed some products. A "flat rate" quote turning into four figures once someone is already in your home is not transparent pricing. From the moment the technician was in our apartment, the entire experience became high-pressure. We were told various add-ons and products were "mandatory," and the total kept climbing in real time. We also felt pressured because the technician would not leave until payment was received. This is not how a reputable service should operate, especially in a family's home. We were explicitly told that both parents being checked was required as part of the process. We initially refused, because we had already checked ourselves and were confident this was a school exposure and that our daughter had likely picked it up that morning. We were then told they would not proceed with treating our daughter unless we agreed to be checked, and only after that pressure did we eventually reluctantly comply. Both my husband and I were checked. Neither of us had lice. Yet the bill still ballooned from $270 to an initial $1,347.39 (and then about $1,100 after dispute). We also dispute the "severe" classification, but regardless, clarity matters: if there are severity tiers, surcharges, home-visit fees, and "mandatory" products, those need to be disclosed clearly before anyone shows up--not after you are already in a stressful situation. Additional serious concerns: * We specifically requested a female lice expert because we are religious and the patient is a young girl. They sent a man anyway. This should have been clearly communicated in advance so we could make an informed decision, not discovered at the door. * The technician barely spoke English, and whenever we asked a question or needed clarification about what was being done or what we were being charged for, he would suddenly stop speaking English altogether. That made it extremely difficult to understand what we were supposedly agreeing to in real time. Clear communication matters, especially in a stressful situation involving your child. * They do not accept credit cards. We were told payment had to be made via cash, Zelle, or Venmo only. For a New York company with a website and significant marketing, refusing credit cards removes standard consumer protections and makes it much harder to dispute charges. In our case, that payment setup amplified the pressure and left us feeling cornered. This ended up being a day where we were so stressed by the escalating bill and refusal to leave without payment that we were close to calling 911 just to get the situation de-escalated. That alone should tell prospective customers what they need to know. To be clear: our daughter did have lice, and we do not dispute that treatment was necessary. What we do dispute is the lack of upfront disclosure, the bait-and-switch style escalation from a $270 quote to four figures, and the high-pressure tactics used in our home. Parents should be aware that the advertised "flat rate" may have very little relationship to what you are actually charged once someone is in your home.

It sounds like this place is hiring better people now, and the reviews sound pretty good. But I just wanted to warn parents that wherever you go, if the person is making your kid cry, that is not supposed to happen.

Rona came to our house and checked everyone. Rona educated us and gave us clear directions. She used natural products and suggested oils to help prevent this from happening again. I feel relieved and armed with information. I would recommend Rona to anyone dealing with this unfortunate situation. I am going to put her business card in my classroom ;) Thank you Rona. I hope we don't have to meet again, but it was a pleasure working with you and I was highly impressed. I feel so much better about this entire situation after meeting you.

While I'm sure it's not possible to be 100% accurate when checking hundreds of kids in one day - perhaps they should take their time and try to be a bit more careful in the future. Lice Treatment Center is totally unethical and predatory - preying on parents' fears then fleecing them dry. Bottom line: get a second opinion.

It was the most affordable lice removal services this past Fall that I could find that also included a base fee for head checks for the whole family (not per head). If a family member requires treatment- they have everything with them to do so which is all natural and better combs than what you get from the Nix kits. It took a total of 3 hours to do the head checks and to treat one family member but it was totally worth the money. The treatment fee also includes a two week check up. The only thing that is outside of the treatment fee is the two bottles of shampoo and conditioner that is used for post treatment care and the lice comb that they used for treatment (it was like an additional 65 or 75 on top of the treatment fee?) the lice comb is brand new in package before they start the treatment. The ladies were super patient and made sure to show me why we needed treatment. They even offered a letter to bring to school to prove treatment and lice free statement. I would def recommend. They do not offer treatment at this business address- it's just an office address. They come to your home.

They charge by the job (treatment for long hair, treatment for short hair, check, etc.) and not hourly.

I could not be happier with Paula and her work. I called her in the afternoon, and she was able to…read morecome by later in the evening. We first chatted on the phone for about half an hour, and I instantly had a good feeling about Paula. On the phone, she was very patient and listened to my situation and thoroughly answered all my questions. I work in organic skincare and when I read the ingredients of Rid - which is what I purchased two days before seeing Paula / the day I discovered lice in my hair - I was very reluctant to use it. Plus, after reading everything that I could about lice, I found several articles about pesticides now being not as effective and many lice bugs are getting more and more resistant to OTC and prescribed chemicals. After reading article about article, I read about "lice salons" and immediately looked up on Yelp. Lice Out New York was the first to show up. First I called and left a VM and then called Licenders. After getting a rate from Licenders (jaws dropped, no kidding), I immediately called Paula back and was able to get her live on the phone. Anyway, Paula spent 3.5 hours combing out my hair and thankfully no bugs but she found 10 or so nits. Huge relief! She was very patient and carefully combed my scalp in two rounds. We had a nice conversation, too, which is always a plus! I have a very sensitive scalp and skin, and Paula was very gentle. Unlike the big companies / lice salons, Paula charges a flat fee (whew!), and it's worth every penny. So much better and effective + efficient than using toxic chemicals or having a nearby friend or SO (in my case, it was my ex this time, sigh) pick nits out of your hair. I'd recommend Paula in a heartbeat!

If you do find yourself with lice, call Paula immediately!
