Scheduling: for fastest scheduling, please Call or Text

Late Arrivals: Please note that late arrivals may not been be accepted because of the impact late arrivals have on subsequent appointments. We understand that sometimes being late is unavoidable. However, depending on circumstances and availability, we may be forced to shorten or reschedule your appointment. Clients who arrive late will be charged in full for their appointment if forced to reschedule.

Appointment Duration: If you are confident that you have lice please book a Full Treatment. If only a Lice Screening is booked I cannot ensure that I will have the time to perform a Full Treatment in the event that Lice is discovered

Cancellation Policy: We respectfully ask that you give us 24 hours notice to cancel or reschedule appointments. Appoints canceled at shorter notice (including no-shows) than 24 hours will will be subject to a fee of 100% of the scheduled service costs (Appointments booked on the day of treatment are subject to these policies as well).

Please note a credit card is required at the time of booking to make your appointment. A non-refundable deposit will be taken upon booking the appointment; should you cancel your appointment your deposit will not be refunded.

Potomac Lice Lady provides removal of lice for children and family members in a stress free, family friendly environment. As a business we feel that children who have an appointment MUST be able to sit still so that the technician can fully perform her job without fear of harming the child or themselves. Please understand that our concern is for the safety of your child. If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact us.
