What to Expect During a Professional Lice Removal Appointment in NYC: A Lice Mama’s Guide
A Lice Mamas® Guide for Stressed-Out Parents
When you first hear the words “your child has lice,” it’s instant panic mode. We get it—at Lice Mamas, we’re parents too, and we’ve been there. But here’s the good news: you’re in NYC, and you’ve got Lice Mamas on your side. Whether you’re juggling school pickups, work deadlines, or a toddler tantrum in the middle of it all—this guide will walk you through exactly what to expect when you book with us.
We know how frantic that first moment can be, so we’ve made getting help super simple. Reach out by phone or text. We respond fast (often faster than your group chat!)
When you get in touch, we’ll ask:
We’ll explain our FDA-cleared, non-toxic method and give you a clear breakdown of what to expect—timing, pricing, and how we’ll tackle it head-on.
Clinic Visit: Step into our cozy, modern space in Flatiron. It’s more spa than sterile—think comfy chairs and a calm, judgment-free vibe.
In-Home Visit: Prefer we come to you? No problem. Our discreet, friendly techs show up with everything needed—just clear a couple chairs and we’ll take it from there. (No cleaning required. We mean it.)
Lice are sneaky little travelers. That’s why we recommend head checks for the whole household. Our trained Lice Mamas techs carefully comb through each scalp to spot lice or nits using a professional-grade comb.
We’ll let you know:
We keep it honest, gentle, and drama-free.
If lice or nits are found, we get to work immediately using our FDA-cleared heated air treatment, which dehydrates all their eggs—safely and effectively.
Here’s what that looks like:
This technology-backed approach means no harsh chemicals, no second guessing, and no need for weeks of daily combing at home.
You’ll walk away with a clear plan—no second-guessing or late-night Googling.
We’ll guide you on:
We’re just a text away for any questions after your appointment.
