Making a Difference
What a difference a week can make and what a big difference
one or two people can make in the lives of others. Not everyone is called to head lice removal
as a career choice which is why I am always excited to meet people interested
in lice removal as ‘a calling’. I am
spending the week with two such people who have that calling. Mary and Gracia, sisters from Halifax, are
the newest super heroes to join our Lice Squad Canada team and are spending the
week at our head office for new franchise training.
Mary and her family had quite the battle with head lice this
past summer and after struggling with it for weeks finally got relief by using
Lice Squad products and services. She
and her sister have quite a head lice story to share and it is a familiar one
that I hear over and over again. Having
experienced the trauma personally, they saw an opportunity to become part of
the solution and get involved in something bigger in an effort to help others.
And, joining an established head lice removal franchise system makes good
business sense.
I know these ‘Lice Ladies’ will succeed faster and better
with our mentorship, help and support vs. starting from scratch. I wish them good luck and look forward to
following their progress and sharing more of their story. If you have a great
‘lice story’ to share, I’d love to hear from you.

We love Lice Squad's Face Book fans
What a wonderful day it is when I read a testimonial from a
client about how thrilled they were with our head lice removal services. Thank you for taking the time to reach
out. I love Lice Squad Canada's face
book fans and thank you for sharing this feedback.
"So very grateful to have had your services suggested
to us!! We have two children, both of whom are severely Autistic, and our first
experience with lice was yesterday when our daughter was sent home from school
with a pretty bad infestation. After calling our local Lice Squad (Toronto), we
made an appointment for this morning.
Our daughter has extreme hypersensitivity with everything to
do with her head (it took over two years for her to become OK wearing a winter
hat!), and we were all pretty anxious about how she'd react to any sort of
treatment, let alone the caustic shampoos we wanted to avoid if at all
possible. Your technician Lisa spent several hours treating us, and she was
exceptionally kind, patient, and determined to ensure we all had what we needed
to feel educated and equipped to maintain the high-level of care she provided
to my family. Our daughter has already mentioned Lisa several times since she
left today: "I did it! I saw my Lisa! I had my hair! Hooray!".
Thank you for providing such special services to our
special-needs family. ♥
We will recommend you to everyone, always!"

HEAD LICE EDUCATION
HEAD LICE EDUCATION
I am well into my second week of the Nice Lice Lady blog and
I hope the New Year is treating you well.
I thought I would write on the importance of head lice education this
week. After all it is what most of my
clients crave and what seems to be lacking around the topic of head lice. You can Google head lice and get a plethora of
information. Some helpful and some just
plain wacky. What I find are a lot of inconsistencies
when it comes to head lice education.
This causes a great deal of confusion and stress.
Knowing the Facts of Lice is half the battle so here is my best lice
advice and what I feel is a good start on your head lice education
journey.
LICE FACTS
• Female head lice lay lice eggs.
• One female louse lays 3 to 5 eggs
per day on the hair shaft.
• To succeed at eliminating a head
lice infestation, one must remove all lice eggs and lice from the hair.
• The lice eggs are tear-shaped,
usually brown in colour, and are attached to only one side of the hair shaft.
Lice egg look-alikes, are white, they surround the hair shaft and are often
misdiagnosed as lice eggs. Nits are
empty or dead lice eggs. They are
see-through and will stick to the hair shaft on one side.
• Most mothers waste both time and
energy doing countless washing of bed sheets and clothes. Lice are not living
in your environment. They are living on
your head. See our 3 easy steps to
cleaning your environment in the Free Head Lice Help Kit on our home page.
• Pesticide sprays & treatments
should be used with caution or in our opinion, not at all.
• Don’t rely on products that claim
to kill nits. Lice eggs must be removed
by hand.
• We provide a Free Nit Diagnosis
Service, and a free head lice help kit including the facts of lice and easy
environmental care tips. Click here to

What are Head Lice?
I am happy to be starting the first entries into the Lice
Lady Blog. I think one of the first things people want to know is what are head
lice? All too often people do not know what to look for and many are
misdiagnosed and treated unnecessarily. Head lice are small black to brown bugs
1 to 4 mm in length with six legs. They feed off the human scalp and do not
hop, jump or fly. Their eggs are brown when viable and are attached to one side
of the hair shaft on an angle and cannot be blown or flicked off. They are
never white and will not move on the hair shaft unlike other hair debris. If
you want to know the facts of lice visit the home page and click on the Free
Head Lice Help Kit. There you will find pictures and other helpful education. I
am also including a great video here for you. I hope this has been helpful and
please feel free to contact us anytime is you have further questions about head
lice and treatment options. Have a great day.
