Most people don’t call us until the third kit.
Here’s how it usually goes. See if you recognise where you are.
If you’re somewhere on this timeline, you’re not doing it wrong. This is just what lice does when you fight it with a box kit. Almost everyone we treat tried this first.
Why DIY lice treatment fails. Why ours doesn’t.
Most parents try a drugstore kit first. Here’s what goes wrong — and what we do differently.
You’ve spent three weeks in their hair. Has anyone checked yours?
Whoever’s been doing the combing usually turns out to have it too. Hours of close contact with an infested head is precisely how adults catch it — and nobody thinks to look at their own scalp while they’re busy panicking about their kid’s.
We treat adults exactly the same way, in the same visit, under the same 60-day guarantee. And you’ll know the price before you arrive — $199 for short hair, $225 for long. Two numbers, published below. Not a meter that runs while someone combs.
Rather not talk to anyone about it? Book online in about a minute — we’ll call you back to sort the details.
We built this method because nothing else worked.
Lice Charmers is two people who read the research and built a treatment around it. Not a franchise.
In 2016 we went looking for the evidence on head lice and found that surprisingly few lice businesses use methods backed by current research. So we built our own treatment around what the science actually says — and we’ve been doing it ourselves ever since.
Lice is either a one-time ordeal or a curse that stretches on for months.
Which one it turns out to be is mostly decided by what happens next. Here’s what the long version actually costs.
- Days of school and daycare missed
- Days of work missed — often by both parents
- Sleepovers, parties and practices cancelled
- Hours of combing that end in tears, for both of you
- The strain of doing that to your kid night after night, with nothing to show for it
- Worrying about who else you’ve passed it to — classmates, cousins, grandparents
- Following advice from organisations that mean well but haven’t kept up with what works now
- Drugstore kits — one after another. They can’t kill nits, and super lice are resistant to what’s in them.
- Prescription treatments — a chemical route that still leaves every nit attached to the hair. You’re combing them out either way.
- A clinic with a 30-day guarantee — a full lice cycle is about 30 days, so the cover runs out right as the next generation appears.
- A clinic that covers treatment failure but not reinfestation — while it’s still going round your kid’s class, reinfestation is the cover you actually need.
Get treated and the check is free. They never stack — you are not charged for both.
In-home visits are priced by household size and location. Call and we’ll quote you before we come out.
Or: the short version.
One appointment, 30–60 minutes, done. Sixty days of cover — two full lice cycles — for both treatment failure and reinfestation. No second appointment, no aftercare regimen, no products to buy.
FSA and HSA cards accepted. Some insurers reimburse. Discounts for qualifying Medicaid patients — just ask.
In our Renton clinic, or at your kitchen table.
Same technicians, same equipment, same 60-day guarantee. Pick whichever is less of an ordeal today.
If lice come back in 60 days, we retreat free.
The only service in the Seattle Metro Area with a comprehensive 60-day guarantee.
Most clinics cover only “treatment failure” — which gives them a built-in excuse to deny every claim, because once you leave, nobody can prove whether it was a miss or a fresh reinfestation. We cover both. We’d rather fix the problem than argue about whose fault it is.
Why 60 days? A full lice cycle — egg, hatch, mature, lay — takes about 30. Sixty days covers two full cycles, the actual window for confirming every last egg is gone.
- No pesticides — safe for all ages
- One visit, 30–60 minutes, done
- Fewer than 1% ever need a re-treatment
- School clearance letter included
We can offer this guarantee because we almost never need to use it.
Our 60-day guarantee, in full
If lice return within 60 days of your original appointment, we provide one free retreatment — including checks — for every person we treated at the initial visit, at our nearest clinic.
Three conditions apply and every one of them is satisfiable on day one. They are written out below — open them before you book, not after.
Eight questions to ask any lice clinic
Ring around if you want to — you should. Take these with you. They’re the questions that separate a clinic that ends this from one that charges you twice.
Screenshot this before you start calling.
Ask us all eight.
We’ll answer every one on the phone before you book anything, and we’ll tell you straight if we think you don’t need us. If another clinic answers these better than we do, go with them — you’ll have found a good one, and that’s the point.
Families who tried everything else first
Most of our clients come to us after a box kit failed. Here’s what happened next.
