Let's talk about lice. You're probably already itching and I have to say that I am itching writing this and thinking about it. LOL
When one has a child in elementary school, chances are, that child will have exposure to lice at some point. I was lucky enough to escape it when my boys where in grade school, but no such luck with Reese.
About 5 months ago, the letters first started to come home from school that lice was a problem. Reese has long, beautiful thick hair and I noticed she was itching her head a little bit. I immediately went and bought the box lice product and treated her. It took 2 hours to comb through her hair, after the shampooing, cream rinsing and putting the gel into in for the the comb out.
I waited 2 days and then I treated her again and I treated my other daughter. This time I bought more box product and saturated both of them and did the process again. I felt pretty good that I got everything and just started to watch her after that.
She seemed good. She was not itching and my other daughter seemed to be good too. Things went on well for a while, but then I noticed she was itching again so I bought MORE box product and treated her again. All along, I was washing linens, spraying furniture and losing my mind.
Again. It looked like I got everything out. THEN about 6 weeks ago she started itching again and I bought more product AGAIN. Went through the process again. Finally a couple weeks ago, I started to see her itching AGAIN and I saw what I thought were nits in her hair at a photo shoot just this last week. I was at my wits end... I was exhausted from it and was DESPERATE to find something that would REALLY work. The box treatments are full of pesticides and it was getting into her blood stream. I noticed her skin was looking odd.
Reese is very involved with pageants, dance, cheer and other things that put her with children all the time. I was literally LOSING IT. I looked up online to find an extreme treatment that would work once and for all... AND THAT IS WHEN I FOUND THE LICE CLINICS OF AMERICA AND THEIR OFFICE IN TEMECULA.
I almost started crying when I read the website. I was so happy that ONLY ONE TREATMENT IS NEEDED TO GET RID OF EVERYTHING. AND... everything is ALL NATURAL. NO PESTICIDES!! I called immediately and got Reese and myself in, because at this point, now I was itching too. We were treated and we feel great. AND... The oil they use at the end not only gets rid of any lingering pests, it makes the hair, smooth, shining and beautiful! I am going to use it monthly just for that. Reese looks like she belongs in a hair commercial now. LOL
We brought my other daughter in to the center to get checked yesterday. She was not itching a lot, but Kailey said that sometimes a person may not itch a lot, and she was an extreme case. There were so many that she was there for over 3 hours getting treated. Kailey, our tech, was patient, went that extra mile and stayed until her hair was clean and rid of everything.
We all had Kailey! She is awesome! She is professional and excellent at her job. The prices may seem a little high at first, either $125 for the shorter treatment or $185 for the more extreme cases, but let me tell you... It's worth EVERY PENNY. It's A LOT of work to rid our children of these little nuisances. They educate and prep one with the tools to be rid of them forever.
I can't say enough. If Reese EVER gets even a hint of anything again, I will immediately go to LCA. They know what they are doing. The peace of mind I get and the fact that I can have my sanity back... priceless
Please get rid of the stigma about lice. Check your kids and get treated. They can't hurt you but they sure are a big PAIN IN THE A$$. read more
