Policies for Professional Lice Removal Service
At Eagle Mountain Lice Clinic, we prioritize the well-being of our clients and have implemented policies that reflect our commitment to providing the best possible care. Our re-treatment policy ensures your complete satisfaction; in the rare event of lice reappearing within 30 days of our Full Treatment, we’ll re-treat you at no additional cost. We also believe in preventive measures, which is why we offer family screenings to identify and address potential infestations among close contacts. Timeliness is essential, and we encourage clients to be on time for their appointments to avoid any disruptions to the treatment process. While we strive to assist everyone, certain contraindications may prevent us from treating specific patients. These include underage individuals without parental consent, clients with open wounds or injuries on the head or neck, and those who may have medical conditions incompatible with our treatment methods. Our policies ensure a safe and effective lice treatment experience, allowing us to maintain a high standard of care for all our valued clients.
Arrival Timing
Punctuality Matters! Like most appointments, we kindly request that you arrive on time. If you happen to be more than 15 minutes late, we may need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. In the event of an available slot after your original appointment time, we will be delighted to accommodate you. However, if we have another client scheduled, we regrettably won’t be able to proceed with the treatment. Should a reschedule become necessary due to late arrival, a new deposit will be required.
​
Regarding Early Arrivals: Since we operate on an appointment-only basis, arriving early might find the building unoccupied or the door locked. Or if we’re open, we may be tending to other clients and unable to commence your appointment ahead of schedule.
How to Prepare for Your Lice Treatment Appointment
To best prepare for your lice treatment appointment, our professionals recommend following certain guidelines. Please wash your hair prior to your appointment, but ensure it is completely dry when you arrive at our facility. Do not come in with wet hair or apply any products like gels or mousse that could interfere with our inspection and treatment process. Clean, dry hair is necessary so we can perform the treatment effectively. Also, please brush your hair so it is free of tangles. This will reduce the time it takes to prepare your hair and eliminate an additional step. We also advise that our patients not stress about this appointment because we will make it as pleasant and painless as possible. Treat it like a spa day and try to relax as we clean and massage your scalp, ensuring all lice and nits are completely removed. We will also provide several safe and effective ways to clean your home and minimize the chance of re-infestation. It is also a good idea to bring along family members or anyone you live with so they can be checked as well. We want to rule out further infestation and treat anyone who needs our lice treatment. Expect your appointment to last for 1-1.5 hours, so feel free to bring a book or snack or anything else you might want to help you pass the time.
