A young girl went to the school nurse because her head was itchy. The school nurse checked her hair and said you just have an itchy scalp. The girl tells the nurse "but I have never had an itchy scalp before." The nurse tells her "your scalp is dry, just get a special shampoo for dry scalp." The girl goes home that evening and tells her mom what the nurse had told her. The mom buys a special shampoo, but after 2 weeks, the girl is still complaining that her scalp is still itchy. A month later the school nurse had checked the girl's hair. The girl was looking at her hair in the mirror and saw something crawling. She picked it out her hair and showed it to her mom. The mom immediately went online to research what kind of bug it is. She found a bug who looked like what her daughter found, it was lice. The mom called the pediatrician to find out how to get rid of these bugs. The doctor recommended that she call Hair Fairies The Head Lice Helpers. She called and booked an appointment for lice treatment and for everyone in the house to get screened for lice. The girl had had lice for over a month and a half. The mom became furious that the nurse had not found it. We explained that school nurses most often don't know what they are looking for and that we have free lice screenings every month. So if she knew anyone who may have it to please refer them to us. They were so happy that they were able to get rid of this pesky problem. She was happy that only 2 out of 5 had gotten it. Hair Fairies has free lice screening every month — so take advantage of this and get checked.
