Is Lice Removal Worth it’s Own Salon?

At Clearlice we routinely look through the news on what’s going on in the “head lice world”.  It’s our business so of course we want to know what is going on… :-)

—>  On a side note, we always share the good stuff on our twitter so make sure to give us a follow!

To our surprise, lately there has been a lot of salons opening up that are focused strictly on lice removal.

That made us ask this simple question,

Is lice removal worth it’s own salon?

We have helped thousands of people get rid of their lice situation with our simple treatment kits from the comforts of their own home.

See what this twitter user told us last week…

We’ve been lice free for 6 months now and I never take a non itchy second for granted!!!

- Awesome Clearlice Customer

Right now we have absolutely ZERO intentions toward opening up a “Head Lice Removal Salon”.  We simply don’t see the point.

Instead, we are excited to continuously help our customers remove their pesky lice situation from their own homes.

With our all natural solution, we will turn your house into a temporary lice removal salon!

Enjoy!

Celebrities Get Lice Too: In the Twilight

It should not come to a surprise to you that celebrities get head lice every once in a while just like us mortals!

Celebrity Rbert Pattinson shooting scene

After sporting a new hair style, Robert Pattinson – aka Edward Cullen from Twilight – made a little joke about his situation:

…had quite a lot of nits, and so I had to shave it.

Poor Robert, he really didn’t have to shave it.  He just needed an all natural treatment solution!

We will continue this series at random to remind you…

we all get head lice, sometime…

Have a great weekend,

Lice: Who They Are and What They Are Doing to You

Time to learn who these pesky critters are and what they are doing to you!

There are 3 kinds of lice:

  • Head
  • Body
  • Pubic

what lice do to youWho they are:

Lice are flat-bodied, grayish-black, wingless insects about 1/12 – 1/8 inch long, have six legs adapted for crawling (via claws) through hair or on clothing and are not capable of jumping any distance.

All lice feed on blood and must do so every 24 hours or they will die of starvation very fast.

During their life, they can cause intense itching in affected areas and pink papules (small, solid and elevation of the skin).
Symptoms:

Persistent itching and redness, particularly on the scalp, on the back of the head, or in pubic areas (depending on the kind of louse).

Reproduction:

All life stages are easy to see.

The eggs, which are called nits, can be recognized immediately: they are white to gray and are glued firmly to the base of hairs.

The nits are attached to their host’s hair with specialized saliva which results in a bond that is very difficult to separate without specialized products such as a nit comb – a comb with very fine close teeth, used to scrape nits off the hair.

An adult female louse will lay 8 eggs a night and after only 7 days a young louse, also called a nymph, will emerge and start to feed. In only 10 days, the nympth will reproduce and go on to develop through three stages.

Adult lice can live for 3 or more weeks.

Treatment:

Specific treatment will be determined by your physician based on: your age, overall health, and medical history, extent of the infestation, tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies, and expectations for the course of the infestation.

To avoid any heal related issues, we developed our product as an all natural product.  To give you peace of mind while you are getting rid of the pesky issue.

We are always here for you,

Intersting Lice Jingle…

We found this little lice Jingle on youtube and wanted to share it with you.

On Tuesdays we keep it serious with some helpful information on lice, but on Thursday’s, we like to kick back and share something fun!

This song is getting us interested in a ClearLice jingle contest perhaps?  We will definitely let you know if and when that happens!
Have a great weekend,

Can Pets Get Head Lice?

We are very active on twitter and almost everyday we notice someone tweet something like this…

“Can my cat or dog get head lice?”

@anonymous

The answer to this question is,

No, not entirely…

From this article – “Can My Pet Catch Head Lice From My Kids (Or Vice Versa)?” – lice are species-specific, meaning that there is a different species of lice for each animal species that they depend on.

So your friendly pet cannot catch the lice you have and you can’t catch the type of critter they get.

Either way, they are not pleasant for both humans or pets and should be treated immediately.

Clearlice Reviewed | Directly From Our Customers Part 2

On Tuesday we published part 1 of this customer review series.

We have so many reviews and testimonials coming in that we had to make this a two part piece.

Without further ado,

*We did NOT make these up, change ANYTHING. These are simply our customers telling of their ACTUAL experiences.

THIS CAME IN LAST THURSDAY:

“Clearlice worked great. My daughter got lice from a girl at school when when she borrowed her jacket, then I got it, and also my son. I was so frustrated and embarrassed, that I didn’t know what to do. I went to the doctor, and they treated me like I had the plague or something. They gave me a perscription which did not work, then we tried over the counter stuff, and that didn’t work either. I finally did some research online and found clearlice. It worked great, I could see the dead lice coming out of our hair while rinsing the product out. Give this stuff a try, it works better than anything else out there!”

A PERSONAL FAVORITE…

“This product is AMAZING! I have used the two popular products in the stores, but it cannot compare to Clearlice. The line of products has a very pleasant smell, but most of all this product WORKS!! At first I was skeptical, but I was tired of buying the same product over and over again until my daughter came upon this website so I decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did. To see the actual dead lice after the first shampoo? It just shocked me. It was unbelievable. The conditioner is awesome. It made my daughter’s hair smooth and easy to comb out the nits too. There were a few nits that the comb couldn’t get to because it was in a hard to reach area for the comb, but it was not a problem since they were very easy to remove with my fingertips. I slept better last night knowing that the lice weren’t in my duaghter’s head.

I will HIGHLY recommend buying this product to family nd friends”

OR, LAST BUT NOT LEAST…

“I have been a hairstylist for 24 years…Imagine my nightmare when I looked across the room and saw my 11 year old daughter scratching her head uncontrollably….i thought NO!!!! and as I split her hair open behind her ears I started to cry….I realized that my days ahead were going to be filled with my hands in a lice filled head….Now I have 3 other kids too and If i get them I am not allowed to work because i work with the public on their hair….I immediately drove to the pharmacy and bought everything on the shelf and used everything on the shelf….We went into lice crack down….with my husbands help we pitched alot washed what we couldnt and bagged swept everything only to find them in my other daughters hair….nothing would stop this rampage on my home no matter hours of picking and midnight cleanings……I researched late into the evening and found CLEARLICE…..I immediately treated everyone in the house….recleaned….kept things bagged that should be and that s the end……the lice were gone….No harsh chemical on my babies heads…..I Tell all my customers about clearlice!!! We are now lice free…thank you”

Again, we did NOT make these up, change ANYTHING.

These are simply our customers telling of their ACTUAL experiences using our tried and true Clearlice Treatment Formula.

Yours truly,

Howard From Clearlice

Clearlice Reviewed | Directly From Our Customers Part 1

We know what you are going through, because the founder of our company went through the SAME thing!

That is exactly how Clearlice came about!

In his family’s frustration dealing with the same nightmare you have been dealing with, he sought out to find natural, effective ingredients that have been used worldwide, that were yet undiscovered in the US, AND had to find ingredients that would eliminate even the toughest lice and nits.

But – how do you know we are not making this up?

Well… read what our customers are saying.

All of these customers ordered the complete kit and followed the instructions. That’s it! No special dances, no chants to the lice gods.

READ THIS LETTER WE JUST GOT IN YESTERDAY!!

*We did NOT make these up, change ANYTHING. These are simply our customers telling of their ACTUAL experiences.

“Clearlice most definitely stopped my nightmares. I was beginning to wonder if we would ever get rid of them! The family pack we purchased had enough products that we are still using the conditioner. It’s been awhile since we’ve seen any new nits, but we had enough shampoo to do “spot” treatments anytime we found a few stray nits. It was SO nice to just keep on treating and not have to worry about toxicity!

Thank you so much for sharing this amazing product! I can’t say enough good things :)

WE RECEIVED THIS ONE LAST SATURDAY!!

“Your product earns 5 stars with us! We were fighting head lice from October until we bought your product in early December. Both my daughter and son were treated with Rid and then two different (and incredibly foul smelling) prescriptions. Nothing worked! We threw away all stuffed animals, spent a ton of time washing and rewashing clothing and bedding and spent a fortune to have the whole house steam cleaned. There was an epidemic at their school and they kept bringing home more. My daughter got sent home four times, missing valuable schooling time. Not until we used Clearlice did the madness finally stop! Thank you for your terrific product!”

Like I said…

All these people did was order the treatment kit and follow the instructions.  Nothing else and look how quick clear lice solved their issue!

Reviews are coming in so fast we decided to make a 2 part post for this!  Check in Thursday to see what other Clearlice customers have to say!

Tips for a Lice Free Winter

Winter is the season of the louse!

It is their main season, in which lice can be transmitted via clothing layers, hats, gloves, scarves, as well as during travel

Summer brings a smaller season of lice outbreaks thanks to camps, increased play dates, hats, road trips and other travel.  We’ll worry about that in a few months…

For now, as kids return from their holiday vacation to daycares, preschools, public schools and indoor extracurricular activities, here are a few tips to help prevent lice from ruining your winter.

  • Peppermint is a deterrent scent to lice. Buying shampoos and conditioners with this ingredient may help.  *As a bonus, it feels great on the scalp!
  • Once a week, throw backpacks, hats and jackets in the dryer for 20 minutes.
  • Educate children on the importance of not sharing hats, hair bows, jackets, gloves, pillows during sleepovers and other cloth-type items.
  • Check your children frequently for head lice. Perhaps set up a calender to check off once a week.

These tips will help, but frequent checks are the best thing you can do.  It is always easier to stop at the beginning.

So at the first site of lice… Be sure to get rid of them and their eggs with an effective treatment kit.

Enjoy a fabulous, louse-free winter weekend,

Clearlice

The Beatles Got Lice Too!!!

This video is absolutely hilarious!  Especially if you are already a Beatles fan…

Surprisingly, it is actually very informative as well.

Wish we could have sneaked a bottle of Clearlice into it as a prop.

Enjoy!

p.s.  If you enjoyed this, we would appreciate you share it with your networks :-)   It is how the good stuff spreads!

A New Year = A Fresh Start at Home Part 2 | Inside the Home.

With the feelings of resolutions and starting over in the air; for the first week of the new year, Clearlice is sharing tips on giving your home a Fresh Start as well.

In Part 1, we shared tips on freshening up the outside of your home.  In this post – Part 2 – we will share tips to help you freshen up the inside of your home.

Here is to your Fresh Start in 2012!

A Fresh Look

Inside the Home

 

  • Hold a garage sale! De-clutter the house and garage to turn trash into cash.
  • Changing seasons = changing clothes. Hold a family wardrobe check as you bring out warm-weather clothing.
  • Sort winter clothing for discards and donations before you store.
  • Pick a weekend and enlist the family for Spring cleaning. Many hands make light work! Reward the team with dinner at a pizza parlor.
  • Wash windows inside and out.
  • Treat any wood furniture/flooring/shelves inside the house.
  • While at the window area, check drapes and window treatments. Vacuum any dust; send dirtier drapes to the cleaners.
  • Move furniture and vacuum beneath it.
  • Dust, EVERYTHING!
  • Arrange for a spring inspection of cooling systems.  Air conditioning firms will give better service when they’re not busy so don’t wait for the first hot day!
  • Drain sediment from hot water heaters.

Following these tips will not only help keep the feeling of a fresh start going into the New Year, but it will also ensure your spring – fall goes smoothly as well!

Happy 2012!  To a clean year…

p.s.  For the best in freshness and the surest way to be lice/nit/bed-bug free in 2012…  Start the year with fresh linens as well!
