Tattoo Artist

  In Dallas, we were treating six year old Jillian, While in the chair, she drew a picture, that amazed everyone here at Hair Fairies. I later asked Jillian, what she wanted to be when she grew up. Her answer shocked me, she turned and said, "I want to be a tattoo artist, like Kat Von D!" Her mother then turns to me and says in a joking way, "Well… I guess I'll let your father know so we can stop paying private school tuition. Jillian you're going to break your dads heart!" We all laughed. In the end I told Jillian her possibilities in life are endless!

Head lice vs bed bug

A client came in because she believed she had head lice. She had found a bug on her head the previous day. When she showed me the bug, I told her that this bug was not head lice, but I proceeded to check her. I told her that the bug looked more like a bed bug than head lice. The bug was reddish brown, and looked rounder than a louse. When I checked her, I concluded that she did not have lice. She left happy knowing she did not have head lice, but afraid that what she found  on her head was a bed bug. The difference between head lice and bed bugs is that bed bugs are rounder. While both bugs are brown, head lice is a darker brown, and bed bugs are a lighter brown and red.

Cute little lice quote

A cute lice quote where head lice is compared to family members. Head lice is so common that all we can do is deal with it and try to joke about it to make us feel more at ease.

I Could Kiss You

  I Could Kiss You A frantic mother came to our location in CT because she had treated her daughters for head lice but didn't have anyone to check her and she was afraid of giving it back to them, she was very nervous and tense but after the screening process we gave her the great news that she was clear, and boy did she get happy, she said "I COULD KISS YOU RIGHT NOW, YOU MADE MY DAY". She also took the time to write a great review for us on Yelp!!!

LICE MAN!

3 brothers come in to Hair Fairies to get treated and decided to come up with a villain. His name would be LICE MAN and he would have the powers to "bug" people. He would be able to crawl from person to person and make their scalp itchy. He also had the power to spread to different people with super fast lightning speed. Everyone would want him to stay away, but he would always find a way to get on you by using a brush or a hat from someone who had met LICE MAN. The boys also decided to come up with a superhero to fight LICE MAN, but that will have to wait until they return and meet the Hair Fairies again. To be continued…

Lice checks after camps

Lice Checks after camps, It is very important that kids get their lice checks right before camp and soon after. As was the case of a girl that her mom got her checked before she went to camp and when she arrived home she brought her daughter right off the bus from camp to our Hair Fairies location in CT. The mom couldn't believe that her daughter had gotten lice while in camp for seven weeks but she was very happy that instead of going home she came here and got her treated for lice before her daughter went inside her home. This way it was just one daughter that she had to deal with head lice instead of the whole family, and was able to get rid of the head lice before school started.

Head lice vs body lice

A client who had never had head lice before called frantically and said she found a bug on her head and she believed it was head lice. As we spoke trying to book an appointment, she said she could see some walking on her arm. I then asked her to take a picture of the bug and send it to me. When I saw the picture it was in fact body lice. I told her to call her doctor and unfortunately we do not treat body lice here. She would have to call her doctor. Head lice and body lice have a similar appearance. The major difference between the two is its habitat. Head lice live on the hair, while body lice live anywhere on the body. Head lice put their eggs on the hair shaft while body lice put their eggs on fibers of clothing. We wish her the best of luck and hope the problem gets resolved.

Lice Vacation

Lice Vacation   A Japanese family came to Connecticut on vacation. They were excited to have stumbled across our head lice removal salon. Mom had been struggling for months trying to get rid of her daughters head lice. The school just kept sending her home with notices, mom would treat and this cycle was ongoing. Mom needed a break and decided they were coming to CT to meet with family, relax and try to forget about the lice for a bit. Taking a stroll in Fairfield, going in to all the boutique shops they stumbled upon the salon. They could not believe they had finally found the solution to moms grief. After two treatments daughter was finally lice free. Mom could finally relax. Daughter said " See mom, now you can really have a LICE vacation".
