I called the Lice Aunties after my daughter was infected. We went to the Aunties to get checked out...the Aunties are amazing!!! Wonderful, caring women who understand what stress you and your kids are going through. I wish there were more stars that I could give them because they are truly a class act. Thank you! thank you! Thank you! Myrsini Bedford, MA read more

I went to lice aunties in Newtown with my daughter and we had a bad case of it I went back 3 weeks later to get my hair redone the ladies were very nice and welcoming but my hair is so thick I knew it was to quick to get everything I wish they just took more time looked more closely and had a follow up included for that price. I didn't have a instant relief I still felt itchy afterwards I did everything I was supposed to do I pulled out a bit and a baby bug right after I got out and a week later. read more

Rescued us in a pinch on vacation. Friendly and very informative. If you unfortunately need lice control, go here! They are wonderful!

Found 40+ nits in daughter's hair days after paying $200 and spending 2+ hours with their guaranteed technology. Customer service was horrible. Go to NitWits in Belmont instead. I went there a few years ago and only found 2-5 nits in all the comb-outs. read more

Lice Aunties of Newton should be named Life Savers ! They have saved me a ton of money by giving me an honest advice on the services that I needed vs the ones that I thought I needed ( I thought I needed to buy four combs for whole family but was told that one comb for $15 is enough ) in addition when I wanted to do a $200 treatment for all members of my family I was told that only I needed that treatment and was given other less expensive options for my kids that worked wonders ! Moreover I was shown how to diagnose my teenage daughter and when I frantically tried to call in house service I was rightfully so advised to not waste my money and just try to comb her out myself and bring her in for check up so instead of paying $400 for in house call I ended up paying only $25 for all four affected members ! Huge thank you to Jeannette and her wonderful staff ( I am blanking out on a name I think it was Emily ) . I am sooo grateful for you saving my life , my sleep , sanity and our hair ! From super greatful Mama! read more

They were very professional and offer a soothing atmosphere. Provided lots of information to take home and explained everything. Fantastic experience. Also very responsive post treatment. read more

I work as a nanny in Chestnut Hill and one of the children had been infected. That night the family I work for and I immediately did our research and I discovered Lice Aunties. We put a call in and they returned the call that night with expert advice and came out first thing the next morning. The woman who came over was extremely helpful, calm and effective. I now feel educated on the subject of lice and equipped with the tools to treat/prevent it. I HIGHLY recommend Lice Aunties. Pricey..but peace of mind is priceless. read more

These Aunties are sent from above! I caught lice in the hospital (SALEM,MA FYI) when I went in for a tonsillectomy... I hadn't left the house at all so I know I got it there.. anyways, I did the store bought treatments to no avail and I ended up calling them. They were so sweet and got me in the very same day.. and combed my hair until it was absolutely, no question, CLEAN! I feel like a new person and the peace of mind they gave me is worth triple the price- I highly recommend! read more

Youngest had lice and in a panic we went here and got a boatload on lice knowledge from Jeannie. She definitely made us feel more at ease about the situation and how to handle it. And I got checked as well and luckily did not have any. Highly recommend coming here. read more

This place saves LIVES! No joke. Call the day of and they will totally get rid of lice. The staff is wonderful. Super with kids. Totally worth the money. read more

I can't say enough good things about Lice Aunties. I discovered my daughter's lice this morning and they were able to take us in this afternoon and on a Sunday. They were so nice, professional and funny!! My daughter was totally at ease and I left there feeling so good knowing they got it all!!! THANK YOU!!!! Don't know how I would have done this without you! read more

Five stars for the Lice Aunties. They are professional, friendly and highly competent at their jobs. We noticed lice on our youngest, and within 24 hours, all five of us were treated - including my nanny! I cannot recommend their service enough. I hope we never have to go back - but if we find ourselves scratching again, this will be the first phone call that I make! read more

Late Monday night I noticed my 17 year old daughter with a TON of long thick hair had been infected... I called first thing Tuesday and was thrilled that they could see her that morning. I couldn't be more pleased with the service. read more

I'd heard such glowing reviews of Lice Aunties that I was disappointed with my own experience. Found lice on my daughter and lice-combed her myself, as well as doing the standard cleanup of sheets, clothing, car seat, etcetera. Brought her in to Lice Aunties the next day. Told the woman who took care of us about lice-combing my daughter and finding a bunch of lice on her. She lice-combed us and said she didn't find ANYTHING on my daughter (or myself). The next morning, I lice-combed my daughter again, and found not just nits but a live medium-sized louse! Not happy about paying $50 for two lice checks (less than 20 minutes total), for basically nothing. read more

I had gone to the aunties a year ago. Albeit, they got rid of our lice, I was taken aback at how condescending and snippy the manager was to clients and one of her employees. As a business owner myself, I didn't care to see those dynamics and felt terrible for the woman working there. read more

I have three kids in elementary school and Lice Aunties was referred by the school nurse. Jeannie was just incredible. She put my children at ease while patiently and meticulously taking care of our problem. She was sweet and professional and made this nightmare issue much more manageable. She was accessible for follow up and questions which we also appreciated. Absolutely worth the price. read more

Back in February (on Valentines Day) we went to Lice Aunties for help. I have a two year old and a five year old that both have the energy of puppies. Jeannie and her band of aunties took care of us and made us feel at home. I felt so relieved to have someone help us. It's such an awful feeling and then these ladies swoop in and save the day. The salon is immaculate and these ladies know exactly what they're doing. They have this down to a science! Once treated it is sometimes hard to shake that feeling of creeping fear that they've been reinfected. Jeannie is there by phone/text so you can send pics and she will reassure you if your worries are unwarranted. Thanks Jeannie, you guys are the best! read more

I visited Lice Aunties for a check, they were so helpful showing me how to properly check my kids and they had all the proper tools that aren't easy to find in stores. I highly recommend Lice Aunties - they were super friendly and prompt and the facilities were very clean. If you are going through a lice trauma, it brings piece of mind and very useful suggestions to further combat this extremely annoying bug! read more

Having your child get lice can be embarrassing and you can feel defeated. These women make your life so much easier and they are wonderful! I have three kids and when they all got it at once I was overwhelmed. These women made me feel relieved and took care of the problem with empathy and professionalism. I highly recommend them and would never deal with the situation again without them! read more

I had heard about Lice Aunties from a local friend who'd had an amazing (and successful) experience with them. When I suspected lice on my daughter, I called them right away and they actually offered to stay open late for us to come in that very afternoon. Once we got there, they were warm and friendly and professional, putting both my young daughter and me at ease immediately. Having the full treatment is pricey, but worth the peace of mind that comes with it (and when weighed against the cost of home remedies, which would likely need to be repeated multiple times, for weeks if not months, it really seems more than reasonable). They were very knowledgeable and I feel confident recommending them to anyone in the area that finds themselves in the middle of a lice crisis. read more

I just wanted to say what an amazing experience we had at Lice Aunties yesterday. That's right - we had lice, and it was still an amazing experience. My 2 children (aged 4.6 years and 20 months) were sent home from school because one child had lice and they checked everyone and sure enough...my kids were the lucky ones. Our daycare owner slipped me a piece of paper with some numbers on it as I was running out the door and I left a frantic VM for every lice removal service in Boston. About 30 minutes later, Lice Aunties had texted me back and could see us immediately in their Newton location. I loaded up my two kids and off we went - While there, I also had them check me, which is a good thing because mommy had it too! We were there for about 2.5 hours and all of us received the gold star treatment and I got all sorts of information on what to do around the house when we got home, as well as how to keep up our treatment so the lice doesn't come back. I walked in there in a panic, and I left with a smile on my face. They were so nice, super reassuring, and made me laugh (which is not easy when you are an adult woman with actual bugs on your head). Not to mention, they were amazing with my two children, especially my youngest who is a bit of a handful and was l wreaking havoc all over the salon. I honestly hope we never see them again of course, but if we do, next time around I don't think I'll be as nervous as I was yesterday since I now realize that while it's a nuisance, it's nothing to freak out over, and it's easy to address with the right plan of action. I highly recommend Lice Aunties if you find yourself in my situation (which you will, if you have children). Don't try to do it yourself - call them!! read more

My husband and I were horrified the other day when we took our kids in to the pediatrician for their routine physical and were told that both of them were infected with lice and nits! Never having had lice/nits previously, we did not realize how tiny and hard to spot they could be. We felt overwhelmed and didn't know whether to use chemicals, see a nitpicker, or what. Based on a recommendation from a neighbor, I contacted Lice Aunties. Jeanne was incredibly helpful on the phone. I had offered to come in so they could check me (for a fee), but Jeanne instructed and encouraged me how to check myself, so as not to unnecessarily waste time or money. I checked myself and, sure enough, found some itty bitty flakes that might be nits. Again, instead of letting me rush right in, Jeanne asked me to send her a picture of what I found so that she could make sure it was really nits and not dandruff, etc. Finally, after confirming it was nits, my whole family came in for a same-day appointment. Jeanne and the rest of the staff were incredibly warm, funny, and helpful. The salon was clean and comfortable and stocked with toys and magazines, etc. The ladies did individual treatments for each family member according to their needs. They charged a very reasonable price for my husband and boys, who have very short hair and didn't need much combing. For me (long, thick hair), they checked me thoroughly first and said the infestation really wasn't too bad and that they could just do the $95 comb+oil treatment instead of the $200 hot air+comb+oil treatment. They weren't trying to up-sell me at all. After a little hemming and hawing, I decided to go with the more expensive treatment anyway, just to be conservative, but I really appreciated that it was my choice and that they didn't AT ALL pressure me to spend more money. These ladies were wonderful. I would definitely recommend them and, while I hope we'll never have to go back, we definitely would do so if faced with the same situation! Thank you, Lice Aunties! read more
