SF Halloween Decorations!

Here in SF, we are excited to have our Halloween decorations up!  We have flying bats, grueling ghosts, and a hanging skeleton that will greet our clients each time they come in!  Today, I was loading new creams on the back of the shelves in the basement to put old inventories afront, and I found our missing Halloween decor from year's past!   It is another cartoon witch and this will be a great fit to our Halloween haunt at Hair Fairies.  Her head is detached from her body!  

New movie in SF!

We have a new movie at Hair Fairies! My lead Tech purchased one new movie for our salon and it is Mrs. Doubtfire! We opened it and had a child start watching it, and load and behold, it's not actually the movie but Mrs. Doubtfire behind the seams-which is the behind the scene edition! We couldn't help but to laugh and we will try to get the movie in.

Catching zzz’z in Chicago

"We had a two year old boy in the salon today that was apprehensive about getting treated today! By the end of the 2 hour treatment, he was fast asleep!! Greg held his head for 20 min. while Nancy finished his treatment!! Aww too cute! 🙂 When he woke up… he was all done and even got a treat form the Hair Fairies Treasure chest!! 🙂

Head Lice Trick Kids at Halloween

LOS ANGELES – Sept. 28, 2011 From October 1 through Halloween, Hair Fairies will put the spook on head lice by holding a raffle for a new iphone 5, eligible to clients receiving full treatments in its San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago and New York City salons.  Lice hidden in reused or shared costumes are ready to go treat-or-treating, but Hair Fairies has a safe solution for frantic families.  From super heroes to princesses, headgear on small revelers can carry lice child-to-child. This is where Hair Fairies, full-service clinical salons devoted to lice removal, goes to work to evaluate, treat and eliminate lice with a 100% guarantee. "Kids can bring home more than candy during Halloween," said Maria Botham, CEO of Hair Fairies.  "The lice can lurk in seldom-cleaned or hard-to-clean costumes and spread from children to parents.  About three percent of school children have lice at any given time, so the odds for coming in contact with lice are higher than many parents realize.  As the pioneers in this service, we have perfected both non-toxic products and exclusive techniques that work." To bring the problem top-of-mind this Halloween and in appreciation of its clients, Hair Fairies is offing a potential bonus for full-treatments in its five national salons. One last-name entry per family receiving such treatment may be entered for a drawing on Oct. 31 in each salon.  Each winner will receive a new iphone 5.  Those clients having initial screenings or purchasing products only are ineligible for the raffle. Hair Fairies in-salon treatment includes manual removal of lice.  The company's trained professionals usually treat clients in efficient sessions of one to three hours, depending upon the client's condition.  This eliminates parents' guesswork that usually relies upon over-the-counter shampoos that may not be effective. Hair Fairies has a high success rate because they have a three-step process proven over more than a decade.  They evaluate the stage of infestation, physically "nit-pick" the active lice and eggs from the head and provide treatment to condition the scalp and discourage immediate re-infestation.  This is done based on scientific research and with all-natural, non-toxic shampoos, combs and rinses developed and produced in the company's laboratory in Riverside, Calif. For parents who want to treat their children or themselves at home, Hair Fairies provides its products and instructions, including a "How To" video, purchased online.  They also offer free lice identification from an e-mailed photo.  In addition, the company provides in-school examinations and informational sessions. Most insurance companies approve at least partial payment of Hair Fairies treatments that also qualify for Flexible Spending Accounts, a validation of the treatments' success.  More information about Hair Fairies, including its at-home program, is available at staging.hairfairies.com.

It’s Back to School Time for Head Lice

A Summer of Outdoor Activities Brings Lice to Peak Season (LOS ANGELES — Aug. 17, 2011) New backpacks are not the only thing many students will be carrying on the first day of school.  Head lice attach themselves to children’s heads randomly and often go undetected from summer activities such as camps, playgrounds or sports teams.  But they do not go away on their own and parents often are at a loss for a fix to the vexing problem.  This is where Hair Fairies, national full-service clinical salons devoted to lice removal, goes to work to evaluate, treat and eliminate lice with a 100 percent guarantee of success.  The company is offering a $30 initial screening. “We had wasted time, money and patience on over-the-counter treatments that didn’t work, “said Patricia Caplan, San Francisco mother of two.  “The lice spread from my daughter to my son and me.  Hair Fairies dispelled the myths about lice, gave me a thorough education on how we would be treated and what to expect.  I’m so glad to get this behind us before the kids start a new school year.  I would feel so bad if they were the carriers of lice to their classes.” Kyle Vuong, manager of Hair Fairies’ San Francisco salon, says “There’s no way around it, lice removal is manual work.  And it takes some time.  Our trained salon professionals usually treat clients in efficient sessions of one to three hours, depending upon the client’s condition.  Most parents do not have the bandwidth or training to do that on their own.” Hair Fairies has a high success rate because they have a three-step process proven over more than a decade.  First, they evaluate the stage of infestation, then they physically “nit-pick” the active lice and eggs from the head and, finally, they provide treatment to condition the scalp and discourage immediate re-infestation.  This is done based on scientific research and with all-natural, non-toxic shampoos, combs and rinses developed and produced in the company’s laboratory in Riverside, Calif. “Lice are an epidemic that gets worse each year,” says Hair Fairies CEO Maria Botham.  “About three percent of students have lice at any given time, so the odds for coming in contact with lice are more common than many parents realize.  After the initial denial of their child having lice, parents are perplexed about what to do and the dedication required to eliminate the pesky crawlers.  As the pioneers in this service, we have perfected not only products but also techniques that work.  We are the safe solution for frantic families.” For parents who want to treat their children or themselves at home, Hair Fairies provides its products and instructions purchased online.  They also offer free lice identification from an e-mailed photo.  In addition, the company provides in-school examinations and information sessions.
