Sweets From The Sweetest

  Sweets from the Sweetest, A very sweet mom came to our Hair Fairies location in CT to have her daughter treated for head lice and she had such a great experience with us and was so grateful for such a wonderful job that we at Hair Fairies did. So pleased that she passed by to bring us a Thank You card and a bag full of Jelly Beans!!! This definitely was the highlight of our day. We always get happy to see the apreciation that many of our clients show.

“What Makes a Fairy”

Hair Fairies are more than workers! We are teachers, who educate. Care givers who nurture. A friend who says, "Let me help". Above all Hair Fairies are like family, Always there when you need us!

What Are Friends For!

We recently had a mom and her two boys come in to Hair Fairies for lice removal.  Mom didn’t know what to do when her son got sent home from school with lice so she kept searching for at home treatments that were not working. She asked her friend very coyly, “My friend’s kid has lice and she doesn’t know what to do.” The friend replied, “Well my friend told me to go to Hair Fairies.” One mom didn’t want to admit she was the one who needed lice removed and the other mom didn’t want to admit she was the one who went to Hair Fairies. Well in the end they both found it was each other that needed Hair Fairies when they saw each other at the salon. They both had a laugh and made plans to have lunch after they left Hair Fairies lice free. Both moms agreed not to be embarrassed about lice if it ever happened again. Remember just one hug can spread the bug.

“My Fairy”

"My Fairy"   Being that I reside in Dallas, TX my recent trip to Hair Fairies Los Angeles has been incredible. I will forever remember a darling five year old, who was so happy I removed all the lice she didn't want to leave! She even said she missed me when I came back from lunch. She will forever be my fairy!  

It’s finally here

Spring Break is here! Want to wish everyone a fun, safe spring break vacation, overall I wish everyone a lice free vacation. But in the event that you suspect you may have head lice, stop by Hair Fairies, and we will be happy to help. Enjoy your spring break.

A Story that deserves your attention – Great Samaritan needs your help!

This week we had a client come in for a check and with a story that caught us by surprise. On March 4th she connected with a homeless man she had passed by every day to and from work. As she tells it, she was moved to help this man who looked like Santa Clause and never asked for anything, just standing in the same spot all morning and evening with a cup out. He was clean, well kept, and only had a briefcase with him. As she spoke with him she found out he is a Vietnam Vet and Alaskan Bush Pilote who had become homeless and was scheduled to have a leg amputation the following Monday. His wife of 35 years, passed away five years ago to Lymphoma Cancer and they chose not to have children. To pay the bills for her treatment everything was sold, leaving him homeless and alone. At 65 with diabetes so bad he's loosing his left leg and possibly his right foot, he is unemployable in the current job market (tons of young, healthy, available overqualified labor). As he says, "My life has been wonderful and I am so grateful. At the same time this third chapter is sucks!" Moved to want to help make his Fourth Chapter awesome, she started a fun to raise money to help with his medical expenses and help set up a stable living environment for him. On the following Tuesday she saw him in his spot. Apparently when he went in the day before for the amputation they told him they were going to take his right leg too and he checked himself out to get another opinion. Without hesitation she brought him home to live with her and has been supporting him finding the enthusiasm for life again. In the past month his pain level has dropped dramatically, he is eating much better and more consistently. The second medical opinion has paid off and it looks like they can keep his right leg. In the coming days he will go in for the amputation and has 12 weeks of recovery and physical therapy.

Young Love

Recently, we had one of the cutest stories occur at our Chicago location. While a technician wasworking on a child, this is the conversation the two had. Girl- I have a boyfriend. Technician- Oh yeah, how long have you two been together? Girl- 5 years. Technician- 5 years?!? You're only 7. You guys met when you were 2? Mom- (laughing) She isnt joking, they have been together for 5 years. They even stayed together when he switched from a 1/2 daycare to full day. He was gone for a year, and they still stayed together.

KEEP CALM

Keep Calm, One of our loyal clients came in with her triplets and this time around weren't so lucky since the triplets ended up having head lice. They were ok since they had been to our Hair Fairies head lice treatment salon in CT and know that they can rely on us to take care of their lice problem. One of the triplets wrote on our board "KEEP CALM AND CALL HAIR FAIRIES" This being said by a 8 year old means a lot to us as a company that mainly works with kids.

Educating is Key

Here at Hair Fairies, our motto is "Care, Nurture, and Educate." So while you are being treated, we go over ways to clean your environment, prevention, and also discuss the facts vs myths when it comes to head lice. Recently, we were working on a child when a frantic mother came in with head lice. The first thing she said when she came in was, "I need to get this treated ASAP, I have a work meeting later and I don't want the lice to jump onto one of my coworkers." Before the technician could answer, the little girl said, "Head lice do not jump or fly."

Spring Break

Many people are getting ready for spring break. Want to wish everyone a fun and safe time. Make sure to keep the head lice away. Only way to make sure to avoid this is to use Hair Fairies Prevention kit to keep the lice away.
