Head lice is stressful! Our professional lice removal technicians take the worry out of a lice diagnosis. Lice is inconvenient but doesn’t have to take over your life! Please read the options below to select the best removal options for your family. Cost will vary based on the treatment option.
Our classic method of combing and manual nit removal ensures you will be back in school the next day depending on individual school policy. We average an hour a head for shoulder length hair with moderate infestations.
Please have hair brushed. Please remove all oil, products and any gel or soap from hair before treatment. A little dishwashing liquid mixed in your shampoo can remove most oil from hair.
We guarantee our work for 14 days from the recheck. Once we have combed you a second time, unless its an extreme case, you should be lice free for 14 days.
If you find anything in that time period, please save it and send us a picture of what you are finding.
In some instances, clients with over a 100 eggs may need three visits.
Combing is still the best hair lice removal practice. Using a patented oil, our technicians will comb through your child in a specific pattern with the only lice comb on the market that has grooves in the teeth for thorough lice and egg removal. We recommend a follow up visit and suggest 5 to 10 minutes of combing a day between visits. We average an hour a head for shoulder length hair with moderate infestations.
For those of you who don’t want to worry about a recheck, please ask about our peace of mind appointment! Stop struggling or trying to deal with lice on your own, call us at (310) 990-1654, or click the Contact Us button now to send our team a message!

The National Pediculosis Association stated that the mechanical (manual) removal is the safest and most effective way to remove nits and lice. Over-the-counter shampoos containing permethrin may kill live lice, but not always. Strains of permethrin-resistant lice are becoming more and more common. Children under the age of two, people with asthma, allergies, seizures, pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their physician before applying these shampoos to treat lice. These shampoos do not kill eggs under the age of four days, so manual removal of head lice is still the most effective treatment.
According to Harold George Scott, Ph.D., Board Certified Entomologist, "Resistance is a reflection of populations undergoing selection to produce survival of the fittest. Resistance does not occur all at once. It develops over time in louse populations, so, in any particular location, both resistant and nonresistant populations may exist. This can cause much confusion, because pediculicides that work one day fail to work the next." Therefore, relying on pediculicides alone may fail to eliminate head lice.
