Did you know head lice can live up to 48 hours off of your scalp? The M family thought that head lice could live in your environment for weeks on end! After finding head lice on their little ones they took the drastic measure of temporarily staying in a hotel while they fixed the problem. After a week they decided to see out the help from the Hair Fairies. Only little L was considered severe and we told mom that she was clear but she needed to come back for a second treatment in 3-4 days. We also told her that it was ok to go back home and mom stopped me before I could finish the sentence: "I am not going to risk it, we're staying in the hotel until it is ALL gone." During L's last treatment, after being confirmed head lice free she exclaimed "Oh good, we can go home now, I was starting to feel a little too fancy." The M family went straight to their 'humble' home that night and little L felt just fancy enough to sleep in her own bed that night.
Lately we have been getting a lot of ad clippings from Bay Area Parent Magazine, We really like to see the return and how happy our clients are when they turn in their free coupons for the free screenings. So please keep them coming and please make sure to check out Bay Area Parent Magazine!
Birthday Girl, When families come to our Hair Fairies lice treatment salon in CT, we tried to calm the parents and have them relax by answering all their questions and concerns, but also we try to take their minds off the whole lice problems that they are going through, by talking to them and sometimes sharing stories and connecting with them, which happened to be the case with a mom that came in tears and left laughing… while talking with her she shared the story of her five year old girl recent birthday party. Apparently when it was time for her Five year old to blow on the candles of her cake her three year old baby sister went ahead and blew the candles instead. The birthday girl was so sad and asked the sister why she did it, the little sister said that she also wanted a birthday. The funny part is that the mom shared with us the picture to prove it, and it was so funny to see their little faces one happy to blow the candles and one surprised to see that she didn't have any candles to blow on. We laughed with the mom and at the end she was happy to have found us!!!
We at Hair Fairies send pediatricians who want, a rack of free screening cards to have at their office. From time to time we will call and ask if they need a refill. I went to take my son to pediatrician, and as soon as they saw my face they told me they needed a refill. They remember I worked for Hair Fairies, and I instantly saw the empty rack at the front desk. I immediately sent them a refill when I got back to the office.
Brenda our employee on her lunch decided to decorate our tip envelopes! So cute and you can check them out in person! We saved the cute looking teddy bear for reference :-)
We truly appreciate the Traubs for stopping by and dropping us some sweet chocolates! What a great way to touch our hearts and welcome the new year with lovely treats!
Chicago is known for it’s extreme weather and drastic change from hot to cold. So schools and buisnesses are closed during the winter season and people are just trying to stay warm. You would think everyone is staying in until it warms up. Not for Hair Fairies and the wonderful people that come to us. No one is turned down and everyone is so appreciative that we are open and ready to service them. Children are out of school and parents are being proactive and getting their children checked. A lot of families took advantage of schools being closed down to have a family screening. That is wonderful and it’s only right that we Hair Fairies are there to screen. Yes, I started cold going into work, wind pushing me down the street but the clients are the reason my heart is warm and I’m ready to work!
Girls usually complain about wearing their hair up, but if head lice is going around the best thing to do is to wear your hair up. A mom was telling her daughter, you're going to have to wear your hair up, and the daughter kept responding but I don't like it. Once I was done with her hair, she absolutely loved it. She told her mom she didn't mind wearing it up like this.
4th Generation, A well traveled, warm and friendly fourth generation family visited our Hair Fairies head lice removal salon in CT. This close family made sure that everyone was checked for lice including grand parents, great grand parents. Luckily the lice just went two generations deep. Talking about being thorough this is a great example.
This time of year everyone wants to start with a clean slate. New goals. New challenges to face! This year the Garcia family wanted to get one thing out of the way for 2015: their ongoing battle with head lice. When Grandma and Grandpa asked them what they wanted for Christmas they all asked them to please bring them to Hair Fairies! The most unusual gift to ask for but, well worth it. They are starting the new year with clean heads and the Hair Fairies guarantee: no more lice! Thank Grandma and Grandpa!
