What to Expect at Your Minnesota Lice Lady Appointment

​

Whether you’re visiting for a quick head check or a full lice removal, we want your experience at Minnesota Lice Lady to be as smooth and stress-free as possible. Here’s what you can expect when you arrive at our clinic:

​

​

Head Check Appointments

​

• We typically do not wet the hair unless needed for detangling.

• Our clinicians use professional Terminator combs to check for lice and nits.

• Head checks usually take 10–15 minutes.

• If lice are found, we’ll discuss your treatment options and schedule a removal if we can’t start immediately.

​

​

Lice Removal Treatments

​

• Lice removals usually last 1 to 1.5 hours depending on hair length, severity, and the child’s age.

• We use only water and conditioner—never pesticides or harsh chemicals.

• Kids can relax with movies, snacks, and toys during the process.

• Tip: Arrive with detangled hair to help speed up your appointment.

• Some sensitivity is normal, especially if the scalp is tender.

• We finish with braids or buns, leaving hair neat and ready to go!

​

​

After Your Appointment

​

• A follow-up visit is scheduled within 3–7 days to ensure the lice removal is complete.

• Every household member should be checked to stop lice from spreading or returning.

​

At Minnesota Lice Lady, our goal is to make lice removal efficient, effective, and comfortable for the whole family.
