Testimonials
Jill is a saviour. She always makes herself available in an emergency. I have four girls and head lice is an emergency for our family. Jill provides high quality service and her 30 day guarantee is very comforting. She keeps her location very clean and is entertaining for the children on top of all of this. With Netflix and toys, the kids forget about the head lice in a flash. I highly recommend her service to anyone in need.

Look no further, Nit Hunters was absolutely fantastic! Jill's professionalism shone through as soon as we contacted her. As a family of five we were overwhelmed when we realized we had head lice. Jill was calm, professional and unscathed by our anxieties. She promptly returned our enquiry to confirm that we were in fact dealing with lice AND she booked us a same day appointment for all of us to be treated. The Nit Hunters space is welcoming, comfortable and boasts free Wifi, plentiful toys and books, as well as tv to suit the preferences of the person in the chair being treated! We felt relaxed in the space and confident in the treatment provided. The 30-day guarantee is a HUGE bonus. We've been Nit-free since our treatment over one month ago and Nit Busters is the first place we'd call should we be faced with a lice situation again. Thank you Jill for all you do!
- Amy B
This was the most amazing comforting service, very professional and quick! They gave my family piece of mind and never had to return !! Well worth the price and I recommend this business and service to anyone having troubles. If my kids were to get lice again , I would book an appointment right away. Also is ALL NATURAL products !! Can’t say thank you enough :)
- Alexis B
That was the absolute best experience I could have had. Jill was amazing. The place was clean, fun and even our daughter was super happy to get to watch Netflix. No chemicals were used, and we were lice free after the first treatment. We left armed with all the info needed to ensure that we don't have a repeat infestation. We had been trying for several weeks with toxic chemicals and hours upon hours of combing, only to have it come back every time...but Jill treated our entire family within a couple of hours.
I recommend Nit Hunters if you EVER have a lice infestation. Don't even bother trying it yourself, just see Jill and you won't regret it.

My daughter got lice at summer camp and then again at the beginning of the school year. When she got it the first time, I tried (and failed) to get rid of them myself for three days! I also spent about $150-$200 on Nix products and tea tree oil. My friend told me she takes her kids to Nit Hunters when her kids come home with lice. I frantically called them in the afternoon and they were able to fit us in that evening. My daughter is on the autism spectrum and they were wonderful with her and got rid of the lice and eggs 100%! This place is literally a godsend! When she got lice a second time, I called them immediately. No more messing around with expensive products that require multiple treatments and induce tantrums and tears from my kids. Just take them to Nit Hunters for the easiest and most cost effective solution. One of the best parenting hacks I’ve come across so far. You’re welcome! Pass it along!

All my three children were infested with lice. I opted for the chemical treatment sold at the pharmacy. After a month, I was still spending hours daily pulling out nits. The pharmacist told me that the chemical treatments don't work and recommended Nit Hunters. I found Jill and her staff professional and very knowledgeable. Their prices were reasonable. Most important the treatment worked!!! No need to spend hours pulling out nits. The kids loved the time there because of the toys and NetFlix.
- Omar H
I will forever bring my kids here when they get lice . We’ve been twice now and the nit hunters do an incredible job.
Kid friendly, tv for them to watch while getting their hair done, toys, a little play area . Very informative as well, with full responses to questions about lice.
Also you can’t beat the price ! I left there feeling stress free exactly what we needed during this lice situation !
- Kaley B
Lightening fast response, great support, and attentive and helpful. Definitely recommend working with a professional to help resolve lice episodes quickly and without worry.
- Kelsey S
I had the pleasure of dealing with Jill from Nit Hunters who was there for us in a stressful situation. It was around 8:00 pm when I placed the call in a panic as I had once again found lice on my daughters head only 4 weeks after being treated at Lice Squad. She told us to come in right away and she was amazing from start to finish. We had already been through this process four weeks previous to this at Lice Squad and the service, treatment and professionalism was outstanding and not even comparable to one another. The treatment left our hair feeling smooth not like straw as it did from Lice Squad. I would recommend Nit Hunters any day and I hope we will not be in need of this service again, but wouldn’t have to think twice where my family would go. Thanks Jill and team
- Jamie LM
We had a fabulous experience at Nit Hunters! They were just amazing - the space was clean, spacious and professional. My daughter and I felt very comfortable and welcome. My daughter's hair was treated quickly and easily, and then later when we went home rinsing her hair out was no problem. We had no lice or nits return and no spreading in our home! I will definitely go back to Nit Hunters next time instead of trying to tackle this problem alone :)
- Shannon B
Having never dealt with lice before when I came across it in my daughters hair I was absolutely traumatized! Not to mention soon after discovering it was in my own hair I had no idea what to do. After a home treatment that same night I realized I couldn’t deal with this myself. A quick trip to google brought me to Nit Hunters and I wasn’t disappointed. I called first thing in the morning and had an appointment a few hours later. The unit was bright and clean and provided lots of things for kids to do. Cartoons were a good distraction while my nervous toddler got her treatment done. Jill was very pleasant and really does care about her clients. She did not try to oversell us any treatments or products. She was also prompt to respond to my emails and happy to answer any questions I had. The one and done treatment was perfect- saving us so much time and stress. I can’t imagine picking through a toddlers hair or my own so this was the only answer for us! We returned over a week later for a check up nit and lice free. Nit Hunters turned this awful situation for an anxious mom into an ordeal that wasn’t so big after all. That being said I hope not to have to return again! But should we face this in the future this is the first place I will call.
-Colleen S
Nit Hunters is the place to go !!!! I have told everyone in my school that I teach at and also handed out many cards. I was so desperate when I went there!!! Their wonderful is sooo pleasant and their work is simply perfect!!!!
If this happens again to my daughter and I, that is where we are going. They know their stuff and fix everything for you!!!
- Marie-France L
The only place to go if you or your kids have lice. Clean, courteous, friendly and professional. Beats any other establishment in Ottawa.
- Robert D
AMAZING. After our 3rd time with lice, I was so OVER dealing with it on my own and unsure if I got it all. I was able to get in very quickly, and get rid of them 100%. The place was clean, stress-free and great for kids. It was so easy and reassuring. Heaven forbid there will be a 4th time, but if so, I'll be back here for sure.
- Mylene L
Jill took care of us! I went in STRESSED and she made me feel better. More importantly, its been a month and we are completely nit free. This is the place to go when you don't have the time or stomach to spend hours nit-picking! I highly recommended Jill and her child friendly business. ❤
- Emily
Excellent service delivery. Jill is quick to respond to messages and had an appointment available for us within a couple of hours. Her treatment space is clean and kid-friendly. She is knowledgeable and works quickly yet efficiently. We have had to use this service twice over the past couple of years and always leave feeling confident. Highly recommend.
- Tim and Jenny V
What a great service! I was able to get an appointment right away. They were friendly and very thorough with my daughter's treatment. She was only 16 months old and she barely made a fuss. The price was very reasonable given the service! For $50, someone who actually knows what to look for and how to deal with the problem made everything better! And great instructions for what to do when we got home to make sure our home was free of lice.
Thank you sooo much!!
- Liz G
We were recommended Nit Hunters and were not disappointed!
Jill responded to my call right away. It was our first time dealing with lice and I was overwhelmed, but Jill took care of it all in just one visit!!
I loved the space, so bright and clean and kid-friendly. Jill was very informative and calming and took the time to treat my daughter. I loved that all treatments used are chemical free!! Jill got back to me right away if I had any questions after returning home too.
Highly recommend, takes the stress out of a "not so fun" situation!!
- Teresa L
Amazing!! Friendly!! Excellent knowledge!! Jill was excellent!! even when I contacted after hours Jill reached out to me right away and gave me instructions until I could book an appointment with her, which was next day early morning. My daughter loved her, she was very good with her hair given that my daughter has long thick curly hair!! She was able to get everything out!! Area was extremely clean and professional, with a TV and toys to distract the kids even my son keeps asking to go back and play! lol. I totally recommend going to Nit Hunters!! With the added bonus of it being extremely affordable!! Thank you Jill!!
- Veronique R
I can't say enough positive things about this business !!! Owner responded to my Saturday morning frantic text even before official business hours. Myself and my kids got an appointment within a few hours. Hilary was phenomenal !!! Was amazing with the kids. Netflix and the toys kept them entertained. Hilary was so educated on lice and the next steps i needed to take to clean our home. All 3 of us actually had FUN while getting the lice out. Nit Hunters even had us come back for a FREE follow up visit since a lot of lice were found. But all of us were free of lice/eggs (because Hilary did an amazing job !! ) I knew up front what the cost would be since they don't charge by the hour, which relieved my mind. Having lice is stressful but Nit Hunters made it a pleasant experience and it was such a relief walking out of the office knowing we were all lice free !!!
- Sheila M
We used this service after we tried 2 bottles of Nix and failed to get rid of the lice. Once treatment and my daughter was cleared. When I found one adult lice 6 months later we did not bother with the chemical treatment. We came straight back to nit hunters who once again cleared her head and got rid of eggs with a once only natural treatment with no chemical. She also checked my hair and my other Childs hair to make sure we are all lice free. I would also recommend buying the comb that they use. Much better then the plastic once from the nix box. Very happy with the service and would use them again but hopefully not!
- Gill W
When both my kids came home with lice my first stop was the pharmacy. After following all the instructions of the drug store products, I was horrified when I found a live bug in my son's hair a week later. I needed help! I found Nit Hunters online and I am so grateful I did. Jill answered my inquiry very quickly and I had an appointment the same day. There are many great things about Nit Hunters - friendly, knowledgeable staff; clean, welcoming office with lots to keep kids entertained; all natural products (which smell great); 30-day guarantee; and most importantly, the treatment works! It gives me peace of mind knowing Nit Hunters is available if my kids get lice again. I highly, highly recommend Nit Hunters.
- Rachel F
Nit Hunters Ottawa has come to our last minute rescue twice! Each time I called, they accommodated and saw us the very same day. Very professional, knowledgeable and kind service! Definitely recommend Nit Hunters to anyone needing this service.
- P Perla
Nit Hunters saved the day! Found out our kids had lice at 3pm, and by 4pm we were starting treatments. Service and location were amazing! Met all of our expectations and more. THANK YOU!!!
- Melanie H
Short and sweet - Family of five and believe it or not grandma too, headlice! All of us! Within 4-6 weeks of our first child catching it. Nit Hunters was on the ball. We had next day service and within 2 - 2 1/2 hours we were in and out. All of us! Fully treated! Only thing left was was loads of laundry, which unfortunately but understandably, isn't included! 😉
Thank you thank you thank you!
- Joelle SA
After a month of trying to get our daughter`s hair rid of nits this summer, Nit Hunters came to the rescue. Hillary was fantastic, explained her approach, and it`s been a month and no lice! She recommended we didn`t need the full treatment since we were only down to a few nits. She also checked my other daughter`s hair for a small fee and she was all clear. Since then I`ve recommended friends to their services. Highly recommend them - the cost is very reasonable & the service top notch.
- Allan R
I was really impressed with the service me and my daughter received. I called Nit Hunters as soon as the school called to tell me my daughter had lice. I picked her up from school and we headed straight there. The service was friendly and efficient. I left there with confidence that we were rid of it! I also had my head checked just to be sure. I loved the peace of mind that gave me. I would recommend Nit Hunters to anyone. Worth the price!
- Tracey A
Very responsive and thorough! It’s a very welcoming space for families and during our daughter’s treatment we learned a lot. I felt that the price was very reasonable and the service saved us tons of time and stress!
- Alice N
I was having a hard time getting rid of the lice from my daughter hair I went to nit hunters in ottawa.The lady was awesome got rid of the lice and even showed me the processes of the difference of what she was doing.also few days later I was scared my daughter had it back called right away and took me asap to go take a look and redid her hair free of xharge even though their was nothing .. I found it was nice to have tv for kids to watch. Very clean great place and recommend this place to anyone that needs help getting rid of lice..
- Mia C
Jill was beyond professional and knowledgeable. My whole family felt comfortable and confident in her abilities. We drove over 45 mins to see her after a friend recommended her. I would do the same for anyone (especially moms) because her space is kid friendly and comfortable.
- Lo C
Fantastic experience!! Found them through a google search and drove from Brockville with my girls to have the treatment. Great people, great environment and they got the job done. I hope I don't have to come back but if I do this is where I will come.
- Kimberly H
Our daughter came home from school with lice this winter and of course like any first time lice-parents we panicked. Started googling solutions and freaking out about keeping our other kids away from her etc. Fortunately through a referral we came across Jill at Nit Hunters. Within 2 hours of discovering the lice my daughter was lice free. The process couldn’t be easier and more professional. Jill’s shop was clean, well laid-out and easy to find. Her price was very reasonable - especially considering the alternative do-it-yourself shampoos and such that they sell at the drugstore, which don’t guarantee anything and you really don’t know if you’re using right. We hope we never need her service again hahaha, but if we do it’s a no-brainer we will go back to Nit Hunters.
- Nino A
I am so glad Nit Hunters offers this service. Totally pleasant, open, clean and judgement free environment. I felt so at ease getting my hair checked for lice while my daughter got treated. With 2 other kiddos in tow, the toys and TV had them occupied. The lice did not fare as well as us; nits and bugs were banished from hair after one treatment, which is much better than I can say for commercially sold products. Nit Hunters gave us peace of mind and in the end likely saved our time, sanity, pocket books and scalps from multiple at home treatments. Thank you Nit Hunters team!
- Erin N
Very professional and kid friendly all at the same time! Was so happy to have found this place in my time of need and will never go anywhere else! Jill was quick and thorough and made us feel very comfortable! I would highly recommend this company!
- Gina C
Very amazing experience! Jill and her team are extremely friendly and fantastic with kids. They have an awesome setup where the kids can watch a show or a movie while getting their hair treated, which for my kids, made the process more enjoyable for them and kept them distracted so Jill and her team could do their job. I would recommend Nit Hunters 110%. They’re simply awesome.
- Lisa H
Fantastic experience! Not only was Jill proficient and successful at fixing our problem but her facilities were awesome. She has toys, ring pops and Netflix for Paw Patrol....also love the 30 day guarantee!
- Angie O
This company is awesome! I would recommend it to anyone! I went through head lice just after Christmas and it was awful. This is a one treatment thing! Bye Bye lice!😃
- Ashley W
Visiting from out of town and needing a quick solution to finding lice in my child’s hair, Jill at Nit Hunters was super accommodating, nice and helpful in saving the weekend! The Nit Hunters’ space was also pleasant for 2 grandparents and a younger sibling to wait/play in during the treatment. I would highly recommend Nit Hunters (and unfortunately we’ve had experience in multiple lice treatment centres, so the recommendation comes with some knowledge of what else is out there). Thanks again Jill!
- Geoffrey M
My 15 year old daughter came home with lice and it was my first time ever dealing with it. I heard horror stories but was fortunate never to have had to deal with it. I immediately went to the pharmacy and the pharmacist recommended a spray that I had to leave in her hair for 8 hours and repeat it again in 10 days. We only got one treatment and she was still having itching. Went back to pharmacy and got the cream rinse and I had her doing that weekly for 3 weeks. You had to leave the cream rinse for 10 mins which was easier to manage. By this time my younger daughter got the lice! I forgot to mention that both my girls have very long hair!! Someone at her school suggested we contact a lice clinic. I never even knew that lice clinics existed, as I mentioned, I never dealt with lice before. I contacted Jill at Nit Hunters and she was able to book us in right away. The place was very clean, quiet and spacious enough for her to work on their long hair! Turns out my younger daughter had a worse case of lice than my older one. Jill checked my head too while I was there. I didn't think I had any since I was taking precautions, but she found 20 nits (eggs) nonetheless! We got the one time and your done treatment and Jill was very thorough. We watched tv while she worked on us. She offers a 30 day guarantee of no lice after the one time treatment so after about 2 weeks we went back and she checked all our heads and we were lice free!! Now that I know where Nit Hunters is if I ever have a lice reoccurrence I will go straight to Jill at Nit Hunters! Thanks again Jill for your great service!
- Arti J
Owner was very accommodating when we wanted an appointment asap! She was very knowledgeable and helped me recognize what to look for and how to check for myself at home in the future. She was very reassuring and calm throughout the whole process of treating my two teenage daughters who had lice for the first time and a LOT of hair! She talked us through maintenance and taking care of things at home. I felt confident that this was something we could handle. The environment is warm and bright and clean with things for young and older children to do while they are treated and checked. I would recommend to others.
-Angela B
I had spent too much money and time trying to get rid of the buggers in my daughter’s hair. Literally about 6 weeks because I would always miss something. I went to Nit Hunters that was recommended by a friend of mine. One visit and she took care of it all. Amazing service both quality and friendliness. Highly recommend you take your child here. She guarantees the results as well for 30 days.
- Shawna K
The day before we were due to fly from the US to Canada to visit my sister-in-law and her family, I found lice on my daughter's head. Not wanting to be the worst house guests ever, we made an appointment with Nit Hunters the morning after we arrived. Nit Hunters gave everyone peace of mind that the problem had been eradicated. The whole family was grateful!
- Laura T
Called in the evening and had an appointment for the next day in minutes! Jill was reassuring and provided me with excellent directions and instructions. The place was well set up for children, including a big TV and choice of movie while they get combed out. The process went smoothly and the lice are gone. While I hope to not have to use their services again, I would highly recommend them. Having dealt with lice before at home on my own, this was much better and worth the cost.
- Sarah L
Nit Hunters is a clean and welcoming office and Jill was extremely helpful. It was our first time dealing with little pests and our experience was stress free. The One and Done treatment was just that. Thanks Jill!
-LH
Jill was fantastic! Answered my call before 7:30 a.m. and booked us in later the same day. Excellent customer service - hope to not have to use her services again as I'm not a big fan of bugs but highly recommend her.
- Trudy D
As a parent that is dealing with lice for the first time you panic and have no idea what your doing. There is so much false information out there. I was given Nit Hunters contact information by a family member. I called and was able to be squeezed in same day. The place is clean and set up to entertain the children as they get the treatment done. I was educated on facts and myths about lice. My daughter received the full treatment and we bought the repellent spray.
We have not had ANY problems since. It truly is a one time THOROUGH treatment and I wouldn't go any where else.
Also note that it ends up being cheaper and faster to take your kid here than to buy the drug store products.
- Michelle A
I was really impressed by Nit Hunters (Jill). I never thought adults could get lice... Well, all my family did. Jill was very very careful, as I have a lot of hair. A lot! She removed everything and asked me to go back for a review, just to be 100%. When I came back, I was completely lice free. She also gave me many tips for my little one (18 months old) and my 6-year old boy. She sells the best comb and her own products are amazing. Instead of spending $ at the pharmacy, I should have gone there on the first place. She's a very sweet and caring person and I highly recommend her services.
- Eliza B
Jill was so helpful while we were home over the holidays... We had a little scare with a possible 'nitchuation', and she came to our rescue - after hours, to boot! - with her miracle serum and comb.
Thanks to Jill we were clean and clear in no time and even have plenty of serum for future use (not that we're looking for an opportunity!).
Thanks again!
- Ashley M
Having three school aged long haired girls at home I have been on the watch for lice for what seems like forever. Checking is only half the battle I have discovered! When I actually found nits in my child's hair I was a little devastated & immediately overwhelmed as I looked at everything my child's head had come into contact with. After witnessing mom friends who battled with lice for over a month using pharmacy products that cost her as much as a professional treatment I had always said I would go straight to the pro's. Nit Hunters appealed to me based on their location & non-chemical approach. Jill was helpful when I called to book a next day appointment & gave me a few tips on what to do next. As soon as I walked through the doors to Nit Hunters I relaxed. Everything was clean & setup to keep a customer entertained while Jill did her thing. She was a wealth of information and really knows her stuff. I was provided with post-treatment instructions and knew how to use my trusty new nit comb. I truly hope I never have to see Jill again, but if lice ever makes a comeback I know where I am going.
- Renee B
Went here with my 2 young daughters so all of us could be treated for head lice. It was just a few days before Christmas and we were delighted to get an appointment so quickly. The salon was beautiful, very clean and with lots of entertainment options to keep the kids occupied when having their treatment. Jill was also really friendly and informative. A top class experience when you need it the most!
- Emer O
If you find yourself in the dreaded position of having to choose a lice removal service, choose Nit Hunters! This was my first time having to deal with lice; to say I was 'freaking out' was an understatement. Nit Hunters and Jill were everything I needed: they were knowledgeable, skilled, professional and so confident in their one treatment policy. They really helped curb my anxiety over the whole situation. Jill specifically is a mom with young kids and seemed to know exactly what to say to make me feel better and more in control of the situation. I also love that she is a local business owner and often onsite. After the initial shock of finding that first bug, I can honestly say that the whole process was quite smooth. If I ever find myself in this situation again (hopefully never ever!) I wouldn't think of wasting time or money on any drugstore products or calling anyone other than Nit Hunters. Thank you SO much!
- Sandra I
The service at Nit Hunters was nothing short of amazing. Jill is extremely professional and incredibly knowledgeable. She has an amazing way to communicate with her clients to reassure them, make them feel at ease with their situation and dispel any myths they may have heard. I strongly recommend visiting Nit Hunters should anyone you know is dealing with lice.
- Patrick B
We had an amazing experience at Nit Hunters, after almost 2 months of trying to get rid of my daughters lice we finally went to Nit Hunters. The girl who did my daughters treatment was amazing, she was professional and very knowledgable. They have free wifi and Netflix for the kids to watch while the treatment is happening. We have not found a single Nit or live bug since her treatment! Thanks Nit Hunters!
- Kasie G
Jill was amazing! I never thought adults could get lice head... I have a lot of hair - a lot! She patiently removed all the nits and bugs. She also helped me with products for the rest of the family, as my daughter is below 2 and had a reaction when we used over-the-counter products. Her place is clean and very welcoming, with toys and Netflix. She got me an appointment very quickly and the price is reasonable. I strongly recommend her for people of all ages.
- Eliza B
Amazing place!Cheaper than lice squad and great work. A good place. The kids and I were out fast. I recommend way more than lice squad.
- Beth J
As a mom of two young kids, and in the middle of the back to school hustle as a teacher, something like lice can really disturb the flow the the everyday routine. When we discovered it in my daughter's hair (who is in SK), I cried and began to throw everything we owned into the garage. I was tired and overwhelmed and did NOT have a clue what to do. After a useless trip to the drug store, to buy useless product that does not work, I stumbled upon Nit Hunters through a frantic google search. We contacted Jill by telephone at 9:30 at night. She answered and told us to come in at 8am the next morning. I was able to get checked before heading into work, along with my husband, son and daughter. We caught it early and only had to treat my daughter. Let me tell you- it was WORTH EVERY PENNY! It has been a week, and each night I check her hair to ensure its gone. So far, so good! The one and done treatment really does mean one and done. Do NOT waste your time and money on products that do not work. A huge thank you to Jill for restoring my sanity that I believe slowly slipped away when I discovered the lice. You literally are an angel! Bless you for the work you do! But, I hope to never see you again hahahahaha.
- Stacey L
Jill and her team saved my life! My son is mixed and has a very curly afro type of hair - when I saw a visible bug crawling in his hair. I freaked out and called right away.. Jill took me an hour later and got every last one of those buggers out (600 eggs, 25 moms – thanks to kindergarten). My son wont even let me comb his hair on a good and she was able to take care of everything – and just my luck, I too had lice – her assistant took care of me and we were officially lice free. For someone who has never encountered this problem before, Nit Hunters is amazing – I highly recommend them
- Renee R
I am very pleased with the services I received from Jill at Nit Hunters. I showed up with my family of five, she checked us all and treated 3 of us(including one very heavy case of a little girl with long hair, a toddler, and a mom with super thick hair!) and was very thorough and calm about the delousing process. Its been over a week and no sign of the little critters again! I would definitely recommend Nit Hunters and I will be back if ever needed!
- Lindsay H
Great set-up - TVs, toys, lots of space.Excellent service! Lice free since the visit!
- Sylvie V
Called Jill in a panic (of course :-)) and she was able to accommodate us that night... Great service and exceptional attention to detail!
- KL
This service saved my life! Highly recommend going to nit hunters before doing anything else.
- Sarah G
I would come to this place and no other place, even though the building is far from my place, it is well worth the trip.... works really well with kids and is a really good person. Oh and her combs are not $25 like other places I heard of, great comb and great service. My first visit and hopefully the last! (Not that I wouldn't want to come back, but who wants lice) her building is nice and clean, puts away the bugs in a sealed bag, very careful too. And I like the fact that she has plastic toys only and sanitize everything.
- Chrissy C
Jill at Nit Hunters was amazing. I was one week post surgery when my daughter and I went to her for help. My daughter had gotten lice over the summer. I did the R&C treatment according to the instructions and I thought they were gone but within a few weeks they were back. My husband treated her again the same day I was having surgery but we knew we needed help. Jill treated my daughter and checked me as well. Turned out I had nits but no live lice. Jill treated both of us, gave us a family discount, and sent us home with a quality nit comb. She provided a 30 day guarantee and I'm happy to say we are still lice free! I'm so thankful for Jill and Nit Hunters. She was efficient, knowledgeable and friendly. Best of all, her treatments are effective and I have peace of mind that these nasty little bugs are gone. Next time (hopefully it never happens again!) I will skip the R&C and go straight to Nit Hunters!
- Nadia M
Jill was really nice and accommodated my daughter and i for an inspection and de lousing right away. She was gentle and thorough and has a comforting way with both children and parents. Her studio is clean and my daughter appreciated watching netflicks during her session. She has abundant long hair so it took a while. The most important thing is it worked! Jill did such a great job that they did not return at the end of the egg life cycle. We are so pleased and grateful. Highly recommend this service!
- Rachel H
This place is fantastic! Easy to reach and friendly service. They made my daughter feel like she was at the spa! One treatment and they were gone. Highly recommend but hope I don't have to use their services again.
- Bruce B
Jill was so accommodating and helpful. My daughter contacted lice in her university residence and only had the weekend to deal with it. I called Jill on Saturday night and she took us on Sunday. Love the guarantee!
- Elizabeth F
Amazing service. If ever the kids bring these critters home again (Heaven forbid) I would come here again in a heart beat! Never, ever again trying to treat this at home. Ever.
- Sarah G
Thank you to Jill and her team for being so kind, knowledgeable and rid my kids of lice with no chemicals! I really appreciated how fast we could make an appointment and all your helpful tips! Your availability seven days a week is truly customer-service oriented and your pristine work space was hygienic and welcoming.
- Ellen T
The service was incredible! I found lice in my hair on a Saturday and they were able to take me in the very next day. It was very friendly, and they gave instructions on how to clean the house properly. I haven't found any sign of anything left. Definitely recommend going here!!
-Samantha O
After trying at-home treatments (Nix and Plantation Therapy) and them failing to effectively kill off the lice, I decided that I wasn't going to deal with this on my own any longer. My two daughters and myself were treated at Nit Hunters and all the lice and nits were removed. Almost two weeks later and there is no sign of any lice! It was worth every penny and if we are unlucky enough to have this happen again, I will not hesitate to go back. Jill and her staff were very professional and the locale is kid friendly.
- Sara C
Jill and her assistant were truly wonderful and helped us through an unpleasant situation. When I realized we had a problem I reached out for help as I wasn't sure a home remedy would be enough to treat the lice and nits. Jill answered my desperate call late in the evening, and the next day spent an hour and a half on my daughter making sure we had the all clear. I'm so grateful to Jill and her assistant for their help! There's no way I could have gone through this myself. I would highly recommend Nit Hunters to anyone going through the same situation. It's worth it!!! Thank you so much Nit Hunters!! I would give 10 stars if I could!
- Natalie D
Great service ! Jill accommodated my daughters on a holiday Monday. They played with toys and watched tv and she took care of the lice with one treatment.
- Sarah E
Sorry it has taken me so long to write this review! My daughter came home from school crying in January as it was the first time our family has had to deal with lice. The owner was so amazing and caring and stayed open late to fit us in. She even gave me a vacuum while my daughter was being treated and told me to vacuum the car. Luckily my daughter was the only one in our family who had it. If any of our family gets lice again we will be calling Nit Hunters right away! Thanks again soooooo much for your professionalism and the time you gave us to help get rid of lice! xo
- Dawn A
My daughter and I managed to evade lice for a LONG time but when it hit, it hit us hard! Jill and her team were amazing! We lucked out and they had openings the same day. The set up she has is amazing, salon-like with wifi to keep the kids entertained while they have their treatment and the staff is friendly. If I ever find myself in that situation again (and I hope I don't!) I will go straight to Jill at Nit Hunters!
- Melissa J
My son got lice and we went to Nit Hunters - they were excellent!!! The service was very professional and friendly and most importantly - they got rid of the lice in one treatment- well worth it!!! I would definitely recommend!
- Stephane T
Jill did a fantastic job, and most importantly it worked! After treating our children at home, unsuccessfully, with common pharmacy bought treatments, we were left with the mess of live lice still invading their heads! I was desperate! I called Nit Hunters and spoke with Jill, the clinic owner. I explained our situation to her and, hearing my plea, she scheduled appointments for us immediately - she even came in after-hours, along with a staff member, to treat us! The clinic itself was so clean and inviting! Our children were thrilled that they could watch TV during their treatments, and they were each given a candy ring to distract them. This was so much better than the "home treatment" option! Had I know about Jill's service prior to treating our children at home, I would have skipped that step and went straight to Nit Hunters! Thanks so much Jill for helping us rest easy after this nightmare!
- John M
Excellent service. The lice was truly gone after one appointment, they did an awesome job! Lots of other pluses: family discount, immediate availability, clean and nearby location. Just wonderful. I highly recommend it.
- Renata U
Jill offers the best service imaginable and it is a one stop solution. I recommend Nit Hunters 100%. One evening as I was putting my daughter to bed she tells me "mommy my head is very itchy". Didn't take long to figure out she had lice. Went immediately to the store and bought the shampoo. The nightmare began! The washing, the combing and hours of nit picking and one week later my daughter still had lice. Needless to say I was fed up. Looked online to find Nit Hunters so we dropped by. Kind and understanding would be an understatement. Jill offered to pre-check both of us and her assurances put me at ease. Right away we had an appointment for the following morning and we both got the treatment. My daughter didn't flinch or yelp from her hair being brushed! There was a tv for entertainment. Jill guarantees her work for 30 days, although our lice (yes I had it too) was gone forever. A big thank you to Jill and her staff for making this a positive experience and really coming through for us.
- Micheline Alam
Jill and her staff are extremely efficient. Last year when my daughter got lice, it took me months to get rid of lice from her hair. Not wanting to go through the same headache again, I decided to go to a professional this year when she got it again. Nit hunters were recommended to me by a friend. In just one seating, they got rid of all lice from my daughter’s hair and at a very reasonable cost- I probably spend the same amount of money in trying different and useless over the counter products . The setup of the place is also very nice- they put on a movie for my daughter and gave her a treat to keep her entertained during the treatment. I will definitely go to them, if she gets lice again.
- Pallavi G
This is fantastic, efficient and affordable. I will not spend $100 on product ever again!
My daughter was Lice and nit free from the moment we left. Thank you ladies.
- Mia King
Jill at Nit Hunters was amazing. I have four kids and needed assistance with a lice outbreak ASAP. She answered my email immediately and booked my appointment fairly quickly. Her office had toys and kid friendly tv shows set up so my kids weren't bored while they waited for their turns. If we have to deal with lice again I will definitely take my kids back to Nit Hunters.
- Sara P
I had spent 1 month and almost $400 on the product that has been around for way to long! We we're not able to stop the lice at all, my daughter had her school trip in 1 day and the school would not let her attend if she had lice. I found Nit Hunters online, Jill made the appointment instantly for that day! (On a Sunday! ) the customer service, clean, and child friendly atmosphere was perfect!
The knowledge of these pests and the technique to remove them, Jill has mastered, along with breaking down the common myths of this prehistoric insect and using natural harmless products that we don't spray across fields to exterminate pests! Please don't waste time and money at the drug store on a useless product! Call Nit Hunters!
My daughter went on her trip the next day, we have been lice free since our visit with Jill.
- Ryan B
They answered my email at 10 p.m AND took me in after official closing time. Thank you!
- Anonymous
Amazing place. They were quick to book us and no wait time. They were very thorough on my daughter's long and thick hair. I would recommend this place to everyone.
- Amanda
Amazing service. So friendly and made me feel like everything was under control. My daughter was able to watch TV during her treatment which helped her patience through the process. I would 100% recommend Nit Hunters to others!!!
- Josee C
My whole family including my 3 kids, sister and my mom all had lice. I tried for 2 months with drug store products and $300 later I decided to call Nit Hunters. Jill was absolutely amazing. Hopefully we never get lice again but if we do we will go straight to Nit Hunters!!! So grateful that this amazing business is there for us busy working mommies who just need help.
- Carroll W
I love how easy the whole process was, from making the appointment to understanding what to do afterwards.
- Anonymous
Wonderful service and great staff. We really appreciated the extremely flexible scheduling. Thank you to Jill and her team for all of their help.
- T Dunn
Excellent service. Would definitely choose this over the home solutions which ended up being a waste of time and money. Would definitely recommend.
- Ori C
The young lady who help my daughter was superb. I was also able to meet Jill the owner who was very personable and reassuring. 5 star service all the way around and highly recommended.
- Clint C
Jill and Heather were my lifesavers! They stayed way past closing to rid my daughter and myself of nits! Service was above and beyond. Thank you!
- L Wile
The owner Jill was very professional and quick at responding to my call. I called Wednesday very stressed out. Jill answered the phone right away and booked me first thing Thursday morning. Jill is extremely knowledgeable and this is such a fantastic service. I have never dealt with this before and was really relieved that there is a service like this available as I have heard nightmare stories from friends. I would recommend Nit Hunters to anyone who is dealing with Lice. Jill also provided information to me regarding Post Treatment at home and how to get rid of the lice at home. What a relief this was. Thank you Jill for providing this fantastic service.
- Tracy O
My daughter had her first lice infestation and Jill was the first person I contacted through google search. Jill was so thorough, the lice never infected the rest of our family and my daughter only needed the one treatment. She is knowledgeable, extremely patient, professional and just simply very nice. I would highly recommend this business if you are ever so unfortunate to have creepy crawlers on your scalp.
- Rose
Well that was easy!
I only wish I knew about Jill and Nit Hunters when we FIRST realized my daughter had lice. Wasted $80 on treatments from the drugstore for her waist-length hair. Jill was super thorough and best of all an overall lovely person. Thanks so much!!!
- Andrea R
Exceptional services, very friendly and very thorough! The facilities are child and family friendly and the overall experience is very positive. We left feeling happy and 100% nit/lice free. Jill and Heather are wonderful and would recommend their services to anyone!
- Chris K
Jill is AMAZING in her work and oh so personable! Having lice is certainly not a pleasant experience to say the least however knowing that Jill is out there.... guaranteeing a "one treatment" solution makes it all so much better! :) No children (or adult) should have to go through the distressing and ineffective "store bought treatment" experience! Jill is worth every penny....and more!
I add 5 more stars to your excellent ratings!!!!!
Thanks Jill, you are the best!
- Lynne G
I can't say enough about Jill and her staff. Her professional and easy going nature put my children and me at ease right away. She was able to work around my schedule and treat my children on a Sunday.
This isn't our first encounter with head lice. Previously we have used over-the-counter treatments and spent countless hours combing nits. I was amazed that Jill was able to eradicate the all lice and nits in one sitting...and chemical free!!
We followed her post-treatment instructions to the letter, and I'm happy to say that we have been lice and nit free ever since. Be sure to buy her lice comb, it's awesome.
If head lice visits our family again I am definitely going back to Jill. It was worth every penny.
- Pam
We were so fortunate to have found Jill and her amazing services. Within an hour of finding the lice, Jill had set up an appointment with us and we were in her Spa like space. Jill was amazing and was able to remove all the lice and nits from our daughter and did a follow up later in the week to guarantee her work! I highly recommend Nit Hunters Ottawa.
- Kathleen
We highly recommend Nit Hunters! The service was thorough, knowledgeable and attentive + a great room set-up with the television along with plenty of activities to distract the children. The "done in one" treatment is a must. Jill and Heather were fantastic and took great care of our child!
- Mike M
Such a relief to have found this amazing place! I emailed them on Wednesday night in a bit of a panic when I discovered nits in my son's hair after I thought we were rid of them. I woke up Thursday morning to an email saying to call as soon as I woke up. Jill took us at 8am and rid my son and my daughter (who has hip length hair!) of all nits and lice. You have no idea the relief I felt when combing through both their hair and finding nothing a week later! Jill is sweet and really good with kids (especially my squirmy boy!) and so reasonably priced! With my daughter's hair our family use three bottles of Resultz and we bought a Robicomb. we still weren't rid of them. I paid the same price to have Jill painstakingly go through my kids' hair and get rid of it for good. Next time (let's hope there won't be!) I will go right to Jill. So worth it!
- Joa B
After talking with a few other places and trying a home treatment (impossible!) I called Nit Hunters. What a life saver! Very reasonable prices (I'd pay her again and again if it ever returns) . It was so easy to schedule an appointment and the office is nice and clean.
Jill is so kind, informative and knowledgeable! She answered all our questions and was very reassuring.
- Gigi P
We were so pleased to get this recommendation!! Having never had lice before, we were taught what to look for, given a thorough treatment (including a final magnify glass inspection), and provided with helpful tips for cleaning our home as well as preventative advice. The owner is very friendly and the studio is clean and geared towards children (great toys). We hope to never get lice again, but if this occurs, we will go back to Nit Hunters.
- Carol Ann D
Highly recommended! Very professional service and expertise. Extremely accommodating hours on weekends. I wouldn't hesitate to use this service again...but hopefully won't need to! :-)
- Erin M
Excellent experience...didn't hurt and I feel confident the lice is gone after the thorough treatment.
- Margaret C
Strongly recommend the services of Nit Hunters to anyone seeking immediate, efficient, and effective service. Thank you Nit Hunters for swiftly managing our unpleasant situation with confidence and making everyone feel at ease.
- N Guzzo
My daughter has come here twice and both Jill and Heather were fantastic. She's shy, but they were so patient and kind that now my daughter loves it here!
- Maddy K
Jill put our whole family at ease during this stressful time. The education she provided on head lice detection, prevention and treatment was invaluable. She sent us away with the perfect comb to use at home to keep the nits away, and showed us the right way to use it. There was no hard-sell. After thorough checks, thankfully only one of the four of us needed the full treatment, which was perfectly painless and smelled lovely. Toy room and free wifi kept the kids occupied. The place is new and clean and bright. Highly recommended if you have a recurring lice problem.
- Katie KP
When my son came home from school with lice, I instantly felt terrified. I searched online and found this place. It was like a breath of fresh air in the midst of a storm. Super friendly and comforting. After his treatment they were gone without a trace. Highly recommend to anyone in need. Thank you so much for making me feel like I was not alone in this situation.
- Allison T
My daughter got the dreaded lice awhile back I tried 2 treatments and thought I had killed them 😳 Turns out she didn't get rid of them and they had grown into an army . I knew at this point I couldn't get rid of those buggers on my own so my daughter told me she heard of a place called Nit Hunters . I immediately called Jill that morning and was given an app after school that day 🤗 Jill was so kind and informative. She was very thorough and precise in removing all the Nits and Lice 😬 We sat and watched Ellen and had some laughs. We went for a follow up a week later and my daughter was Lice free 🤗 I would recommend her services to anyone trying to rid the bug. Thank you for your service
- Amanda T
My 8 year old daughter was complaining that her head was itchy one Saturday night. After figuring out that it was lice, we tried the home kit of Nix. 5 hours later and then 3 on the Sunday I spent picking through her hair! My back was sore and I was exhausted!!! I was worried that I might have it as well and my husband had trouble looking through my curly black and grey hair. So we called Jill at Nit Hunters and she immediately scheduled us for the first appointment on Monday morning to check me and re-check my daughter. I was glad to hear that I was lice and nit free, but Jill found more nits and lice in my daughters hair! It only took 1.5 hours total and Jill was so amazing with my daughter. Having a large tv in front of the chair helped keep my daughter entertained throughout with no complaint!!! I am happy to say that 10 days later, I have been following the post treatment instructions as listed, and my daughters hair is lice and nit free:)
Thanks so much Jill!
- Stephanie
Great Service and Great people. Very affordable - Don't buy treatments for your kids, go to this place and get it done right the first time.
- Christian G
Jill was amazing! If I ever have to go through this again I will be calling Nit Hunters immediately. I wish I would have known about nit hunters before I put the pesticide on my child's head to try and take care of it myself. The treatment and combing didn't work for me but Jill and her team have this down to a science and had my daughters very long hair clean and clear within no time. I have since referred 5 other people and they all say the same thing. Outstanding service!
- K Martin
When my 7 year old daughter started scratching her head I started to panic. Right away I called Nit Hunters and Jill took us in right away, I was so glad we didn't have to wait to go in or attempt to handle it on our own. Jill was fantastic with my daughter. Jill did an amazing job! :) We went in for a follow-up and my daughter was lice free. Thank goodness! Thanks Jill for the great job you have provided to us. It was a very clean atmosphere, good location and good set up for kids. I will definitely recommend Nit Hunters to friends and family! Excellent :)
- Z Youssef
Friendly staff who are extremely efficient. Loved watching Spongebob while Ticks are destroyed. It may have been an hour and a half but my daughter did not complain at all before, during, or after. Thanks Miranda. You were Great.
- David M
When my four year old started scratch scratch scratching her head and I couldn't find anything I started to panic. Nit Hunters was an educational experience for us. I'm so glad we didn't wait to go in or attempt to handle it on our own. Jill was fabulous with my daughter and the location was amazing, a relaxing and very child friendly room. I learned so much about what to look for, and do at home....but would definitely go back for the help and treatment in the future. Jill even calmed my nerves and checked me out (a couple of times). My daughter has remained lice free, thank goodness! First lice experience couldn't have been handled any better.
- K Popp
Awesome service and highly efficient! It was a struggle with my step daughters daughter and just say I am one happy momma now! Live free :)
-Allison S
When my 4 year old daughter approached me about her head being itchy I started my search for head lice. I called a friend and she recommended Nit Hunters. I originally was just going in to purchase the comb because I was determined to do it alone. I treated my daughter but after a few hours and constant brushing attempts I continued to find live lice and sadly discovered it in my hair as well. That's when I knew I needed help. Jill was so understanding and calm and gave some great helpful tips on how to stop the lice from spreading to other family members. She thoroughly checked my other children while treating us. It's been over a week and we are lice and nit free thanks to Nit Hunters.
- Daniela G
The absolute best way to deal with lice.
Nit Hunters is incredible. I only wish I had known about them earlier. Jill is such a pro, not to mention super friendly, and I always leave with a calm assurance that my family is nit and lice free. Highly recommended.
- Brad S
What a great service! And so accommodating. What a nasty surprise we had with our daughter's lice. We found out at 4:30 pm on a Thursday and by 9 am the next day, she was lice free because of Jill. Clean location and so nice and helpful. I would highly recommend them.
- PP
I discovered my daughter had nits and lice and called Nit Hunters after trying unsuccessfully to treat them myself. It turns out I had them, too. The location was nice and comfy, the staff was super friendly and helpful, and there has not been a single nit in my or my daughter's hair since (knock wood). The process is chemical-free, which is important for me as a mother to a nursing baby. And they went above and beyond in customer service, right down to vacuuming our car seats in the parking lot. I recommend forgetting the drugstore stuff (it honestly doesn't work) and going straight there. It's not super cheap, but if any service is worth the money, it's this one.
- Kim M
We’ve dealt with lice in our family twice, this time I decided to go to a professional, best decision I’ve done! The owner (Jill) called me no more than 5 minutes after I email and was able to accommodate us the next day (which was a holiday). The staff was very professional and VERY through. Their service is guaranteed for 30 days. I also got amazing post treatment service. The place is set up with TVs and toys to make it easy for kids to seat and wait. If lice ever comes back I will definitely return.
- Ines E
I have never had lice in the family until this year!! So I went online and found Nit Hunters, Jill did an amazing job. She was able to remove the lice from our family in one treatment. Jill and her staff are professional, knowledgeable and super kind. Don't waste your money with the pharmacy products, GO SEE JILL IMMEDIATELY!!! Her methods, technique and product, including her own nit comb is better!!Her business is the key to getting rid of the lice!!! YOU NEED TO COME HERE!!! THANKS JILL!!
- Shanon H
Jill did an amazing job of getting our family lice free. We have never had lice in our household before. I attempted to remove the lice but it just seemed to take me forever and I was not getting everything. I called Nit Hunters and Jill was able to get us in the next day. We went in for a follow-up a week later and we were all lice free. Thanks Jill for the great job. I will definitely recommend Nit Hunters to friends and family.
- Kim E.
Jill offers an amazing service! When lice is involved, it's an issue you want to deal with right away. Jill responded to me the same night I emailed, actually within about half an hour! Booked an appointment the next day and I could not have asked for a more phenomenal service. She really walks you through each step and what needs to be done when you get home. I cannot forget, Jill even went to the office on Christmas Eve! Not sure any other company would have done the same. She really puts your hair first and wants to make sure it's gone! I would recommend NitHunters to anyone, forget the pharmacy treatment, this company is totally worth the piece of mind.
- Bailey M
Don't waste your money or your time with anything else. Only wished I had known about them as soon as we found the lice. Expert service saved my teenage daughter's very long hair and ended the stress and frustration. Worth the detour and every penny!
- Bianca P
Brought my daughter after the first at home treatment failed miserably. the stuff you purchase at the drug store are expensive and there combs suck. We went here and we spend two hours and she was done. I no longer had to worry about lice and if I needed to treat again. They also checked my head and found a few babies so I got a treatment as well. I highly recommend going here. It would have been cheaper had I not bothered with the at home treatment and just gone here to begin with.
- Martine M
Jill was very friendly and professional, making us feel right at home! We had our whole family treated after suffering for 6 months +. We tried every treatment on the market and nothing worked! Our frustration was gone in one day when we met Jill! The treatment is very thorough and it works!!! Thank-you so much Jill!
- Anne-Marie Stargratt-Robinson
I highly recommend Nit Hunters. On a lazy Sunday morning while innocently brushing my 5 year olds long beautiful hair I saw it run. Ahhh head lice! No need to panic, when lice happens just call Nit Hunters. Jill and her team turn chaos into calm. The inviting atmosphere and all-natural products made our ordeal feel more like a trip to the spa. My daughter was pampered while one of her favourite cartoons played on the television. Her siblings busiest themselves with the toys, puzzles, games and books on offer in the play area.
- Sara Anne Wilson
Our whole family had our heads checked by the experts at Nit Hunters and Jill provided instructions after our appointment ensuring our home, car and family were footloose and lice-free! Jill expertly resolved our nit issues, and we are so grateful. The clinic is clean and welcoming with a fantastic set up to keep kids and adults alike preoccupied while getting treatments. We were able to get in the same day as calling. Jill clearly knows her stuff and is worth every penny. Highly recommend.
- Nancy Ceresia
I can't speak highly enough of Jill and her services at Nit Hunters. She is professional, knowledgeable, reassuring and thorough. I was lice free in one visit and it was well worth the reasonable price. I am so glad I found this service and would highly recommend it to anyone struggling with lice removal.
- Meredith Blogg
This place was great and I would (and have) recommend it to anyone who finds lice and does not have the time or skill to get rid of it on their own. When I found out both my children had lice I had no idea what I would do. There was no way I could get them both to sit for hours while I tried to remove all the eggs. The Nit Hunters were able to keep my kids entertained and happy while quickly and effectively removing all the live lice and nits from their heads. I found the price to be very reasonable for the service provided. Although I hope to never have to go back - I wont think twice about returning if I have to!
- Leanne
When your kids come home with Lice it is a horrible experience. The staff at Nit Hunters literally eliminated the problem and counselled the best way to ensure the problem would not re-occur. Advice I would give to anyone is if your kids get lice do not bother with drug store solutions. Go see the professionals. You do not want to deal with missing an egg and dealing with this over and over. The staff are literally the best. Kids loved going! They watched tv while they were treated.
- Chad S.
Words can not describe the experience I had at Nit Hunters. You are treated like royalty. Nit Hunters is super clean, comfortable, cozy and welcoming. Jill is very knowledgeable, very informative, and thorough. She makes you feel right at home by offering you coffee or water and you get to watch tv while getting your hair done.
- Stephanie G.
I am very grateful my friend recommended you. You were fantastic with my daughter and gentle. She barely lets me comb her hair without crying. Thank you for being kind and non-judgemental to this very anxious mom. I'm happy to report day 4 post treatment and haven't found a single egg!
- Mary L.
Nit Hunters Ottawa was great and solved our lice issues in one family visit. Well worth it as many families spend weeks or months trying to get rid of lice. Staff were really friendly and helpful with my little kids and the location is clean and bright. Definitely recommend it!
- Emily W.
Like so many parents who discover lice on their child; I treated my 6yrs old thoroughly with a treatment bought at the drug store. After 2 treatments I thought I got every last one. I then got a call from the school informing me that my other child had lice. I then decided to call Nit Hunters and Jill took us that evening. Not only did my other child have a lot of lice and nits but my 1st child STILL HAD THEM! To make matters worse I had them too. I have long and very thick hair and Jill at Nit Hunters got every single last one of those pesky nuisance lice and nits. Jill was amazing with my 4yrs old and 6 yrs old and we have been lice/nit free since. I truly believe that if every family would just skip the home treatments and leave it to the professional Nit Hunter then we could stop spreading them. Thank you Jill at Nit Hunters for taking such great care of me and my family.
- Tanya W.
Jill at Nit Hunters is very patient and reassuring. When my family came across lice, it was a first for us so we were a little stressed. Jill was available for immediate help and consultation. I cannot convey how nice it was to receive professional help so quickly! Jill offers a free follow up a week later - peace of mind is worth every penny. Thank you again, Jill!
- LCL
Lice happens. When we got lice recently I decided to have a professional check us over. I landed on Nit Hunters and am so glad I did. Jill is beyond professional and so kind. She was very understanding and put all my fears to rest. Not an easy thing to do when I am freaking out about bugs crawling all over us! Her space is clean and very kid friendly. Also nice were the comfy chairs she has for people to sit in while she deals with the nasties in your hair. I will never consider dealing with lice by myself after going to Nit Hunters. So worth the money.
- Sydny B.
After discovering lice in my daughters hair only days before our summer holiday, I needed a solution ASAP. I called Nit Hunters straight away. Jill was able to see my daughter first thing the next day, and also perform head checks on our whole family. She was knowledgeable, professional and extremely thorough. Her treatment involved a comprehensive comb out to remove all lice and nits. This process was a lengthy one, but we really appreciated the fact that her salon had a TV, some colouring supplies and children's toys to provide ample entertainment for my other two kids. Her location is convenient, clean and bright, and close to costco (always a bonus in my books!). She provided follow-up instructions for the post treatment combing, but because she did such a great job the first time we did not find anything. We are so thankful for Jill and Nit Hunters. With 3 kids, I'm sure we will be back at some point - it's nice to know there is a place we can go that makes dealing with lice so quick and painless. Thank you!!!
- Shannon B.
I have never got lice before in my life! I was in a public school with tons of live outbreaks and worked in a daycare for 3 years- never ever caught it!
So when I ended up with a lice infestation I was so happy to go to nit hunters.
Again, I had SO many. But Jill got them all! I went back for a check and sure enough they were all gone! She is amazing and does so much to make sure her clients are okay. My mom and I (we share a house) were pretty freaked out about me having lice- but she did so much and said so much to give us complete peace of mind.
Thank you Jill of nit hunters! You're awesome!
- Ilyena and Ronda
I contacted Nit Hunters (Jill) when I noticed my daughter had head lice. It was over the weekend and I called her Monday morning, I was panicking and wanted it gone! She was able to see us that day and did a great job!
She's kind and cares about her clients, she even booked an appointment a week later just to double check my daughters hair. (my daughter has extremely curly hair and it's not easy to remove) We went back for the check up and she spent time going through the entire head patiently for a second time!!
I would definitely recommend Nit Hunters to anyone needing their services.
YOU ROCK JILL!!! :)
- Keana W.
After several people, including a pharmacist, telling me that there was nothing on my head, a friend finally confirmed what I knew to be true. I found Jill doing a google search for the product that she told me to go to the pharmacy to get. I was going to go to her house later for her to do the treatment for me. Right below the link for the other product I saw nit hunters. I called right away. Jill gave me an appointment that afternoon. She also checked my son who I brought along with me and then explained later how to check the other two.
I was well taken care of. Jill put my mind at ease immediately. Knowing that she knew what she was doing and that the products she uses are not only incredibly effective, but non-toxic to me, I was relaxed. The atmosphere is welcoming, but that has more to do with Jill herself than her space, which is also great!
I left about 90 minutes later bug-free and feeling better physically because I no longer had to scratch every 5 seconds.
Thank you, Jill! If I ever have the misfortune of getting lice again, or know a friend who has, I know where to go. Worth every penny.
- Tiffany C.
Just amazing experience! Save yourself a lot of Time and money. Don't go to the pharmacy, stop combing and cleaning. You Go there once you Clean well when you get back and that's the END! Not weeks or months of doing this!!! She is also very flexible for booking appointments. We called at night, I was there at 8am the next day.
- Caroline V.
Jill is amazing. Awesome service! Thanks for a great session and conversation!!
- Dhilal A.
Jill is a saviour. She always makes herself available in an emergency. I have four girls and head lice is an emergency for our family. Jill provides high quality service and her 30 day guarantee is very comforting. She keeps her location very clean and is entertaining for the children on top of all of this. With Netflix and toys, the kids forget about the head lice in a flash. I highly recommend her service to anyone in need.
- Gayle T
Look no further, Nit Hunters was absolutely fantastic! Jill's professionalism shone through as soon as we contacted her. As a family of five we were overwhelmed when we realized we had head lice. Jill was calm, professional and unscathed by our anxieties. She promptly returned our enquiry to confirm that we were in fact dealing with lice AND she booked us a same day appointment for all of us to be treated. The Nit Hunters space is welcoming, comfortable and boasts free Wifi, plentiful toys and books, as well as tv to suit the preferences of the person in the chair being treated! We felt relaxed in the space and confident in the treatment provided. The 30-day guarantee is a HUGE bonus. We've been Nit-free since our treatment over one month ago and Nit Busters is the first place we'd call should we be faced with a lice situation again. Thank you Jill for all you do!
- Amy B
This was the most amazing comforting service, very professional and quick! They gave my family piece of mind and never had to return !! Well worth the price and I recommend this business and service to anyone having troubles. If my kids were to get lice again , I would book an appointment right away. Also is ALL NATURAL products !! Can’t say thank you enough :)
- Alexis B
That was the absolute best experience I could have had. Jill was amazing. The place was clean, fun and even our daughter was super happy to get to watch Netflix. No chemicals were used, and we were lice free after the first treatment. We left armed with all the info needed to ensure that we don't have a repeat infestation. We had been trying for several weeks with toxic chemicals and hours upon hours of combing, only to have it come back every time...but Jill treated our entire family within a couple of hours.
I recommend Nit Hunters if you EVER have a lice infestation. Don't even bother trying it yourself, just see Jill and you won't regret it.

My daughter got lice at summer camp and then again at the beginning of the school year. When she got it the first time, I tried (and failed) to get rid of them myself for three days! I also spent about $150-$200 on Nix products and tea tree oil. My friend told me she takes her kids to Nit Hunters when her kids come home with lice. I frantically called them in the afternoon and they were able to fit us in that evening. My daughter is on the autism spectrum and they were wonderful with her and got rid of the lice and eggs 100%! This place is literally a godsend! When she got lice a second time, I called them immediately. No more messing around with expensive products that require multiple treatments and induce tantrums and tears from my kids. Just take them to Nit Hunters for the easiest and most cost effective solution. One of the best parenting hacks I’ve come across so far. You’re welcome! Pass it along!

All my three children were infested with lice. I opted for the chemical treatment sold at the pharmacy. After a month, I was still spending hours daily pulling out nits. The pharmacist told me that the chemical treatments don't work and recommended Nit Hunters. I found Jill and her staff professional and very knowledgeable. Their prices were reasonable. Most important the treatment worked!!! No need to spend hours pulling out nits. The kids loved the time there because of the toys and NetFlix.

I will forever bring my kids here when they get lice . We’ve been twice now and the nit hunters do an incredible job.
Kid friendly, tv for them to watch while getting their hair done, toys, a little play area . Very informative as well, with full responses to questions about lice.
Also you can’t beat the price ! I left there feeling stress free exactly what we needed during this lice situation !
- Kaley B
Lightening fast response, great support, and attentive and helpful. Definitely recommend working with a professional to help resolve lice episodes quickly and without worry.
- Kelsey S
I had the pleasure of dealing with Jill from Nit Hunters who was there for us in a stressful situation. It was around 8:00 pm when I placed the call in a panic as I had once again found lice on my daughters head only 4 weeks after being treated at Lice Squad. She told us to come in right away and she was amazing from start to finish. We had already been through this process four weeks previous to this at Lice Squad and the service, treatment and professionalism was outstanding and not even comparable to one another. The treatment left our hair feeling smooth not like straw as it did from Lice Squad. I would recommend Nit Hunters any day and I hope we will not be in need of this service again, but wouldn’t have to think twice where my family would go. Thanks Jill and team
- Jamie LM
We had a fabulous experience at Nit Hunters! They were just amazing - the space was clean, spacious and professional. My daughter and I felt very comfortable and welcome. My daughter's hair was treated quickly and easily, and then later when we went home rinsing her hair out was no problem. We had no lice or nits return and no spreading in our home! I will definitely go back to Nit Hunters next time instead of trying to tackle this problem alone :)
- Shannon B
Having never dealt with lice before when I came across it in my daughters hair I was absolutely traumatized! Not to mention soon after discovering it was in my own hair I had no idea what to do. After a home treatment that same night I realized I couldn’t deal with this myself. A quick trip to google brought me to Nit Hunters and I wasn’t disappointed. I called first thing in the morning and had an appointment a few hours later. The unit was bright and clean and provided lots of things for kids to do. Cartoons were a good distraction while my nervous toddler got her treatment done. Jill was very pleasant and really does care about her clients. She did not try to oversell us any treatments or products. She was also prompt to respond to my emails and happy to answer any questions I had. The one and done treatment was perfect- saving us so much time and stress. I can’t imagine picking through a toddlers hair or my own so this was the only answer for us! We returned over a week later for a check up nit and lice free. Nit Hunters turned this awful situation for an anxious mom into an ordeal that wasn’t so big after all. That being said I hope not to have to return again! But should we face this in the future this is the first place I will call.
-Colleen S
Nit Hunters is the place to go !!!! I have told everyone in my school that I teach at and also handed out many cards. I was so desperate when I went there!!! Their wonderful is sooo pleasant and their work is simply perfect!!!!
If this happens again to my daughter and I, that is where we are going. They know their stuff and fix everything for you!!!
- Marie-France L
The only place to go if you or your kids have lice. Clean, courteous, friendly and professional. Beats any other establishment in Ottawa.
- Robert D
AMAZING. After our 3rd time with lice, I was so OVER dealing with it on my own and unsure if I got it all. I was able to get in very quickly, and get rid of them 100%. The place was clean, stress-free and great for kids. It was so easy and reassuring. Heaven forbid there will be a 4th time, but if so, I'll be back here for sure.
- Mylene L
Jill took care of us! I went in STRESSED and she made me feel better. More importantly, its been a month and we are completely nit free. This is the place to go when you don't have the time or stomach to spend hours nit-picking! I highly recommended Jill and her child friendly business. ❤
- Emily
Excellent service delivery. Jill is quick to respond to messages and had an appointment available for us within a couple of hours. Her treatment space is clean and kid-friendly. She is knowledgeable and works quickly yet efficiently. We have had to use this service twice over the past couple of years and always leave feeling confident. Highly recommend.
- Tim and Jenny V
What a great service! I was able to get an appointment right away. They were friendly and very thorough with my daughter's treatment. She was only 16 months old and she barely made a fuss. The price was very reasonable given the service! For $50, someone who actually knows what to look for and how to deal with the problem made everything better! And great instructions for what to do when we got home to make sure our home was free of lice.
Thank you sooo much!!
- Liz G
We were recommended Nit Hunters and were not disappointed!
Jill responded to my call right away. It was our first time dealing with lice and I was overwhelmed, but Jill took care of it all in just one visit!!
I loved the space, so bright and clean and kid-friendly. Jill was very informative and calming and took the time to treat my daughter. I loved that all treatments used are chemical free!! Jill got back to me right away if I had any questions after returning home too.
Highly recommend, takes the stress out of a "not so fun" situation!!
- Teresa L
Amazing!! Friendly!! Excellent knowledge!! Jill was excellent!! even when I contacted after hours Jill reached out to me right away and gave me instructions until I could book an appointment with her, which was next day early morning. My daughter loved her, she was very good with her hair given that my daughter has long thick curly hair!! She was able to get everything out!! Area was extremely clean and professional, with a TV and toys to distract the kids even my son keeps asking to go back and play! lol. I totally recommend going to Nit Hunters!! With the added bonus of it being extremely affordable!! Thank you Jill!!
- Veronique R
I can't say enough positive things about this business !!! Owner responded to my Saturday morning frantic text even before official business hours. Myself and my kids got an appointment within a few hours. Hilary was phenomenal !!! Was amazing with the kids. Netflix and the toys kept them entertained. Hilary was so educated on lice and the next steps i needed to take to clean our home. All 3 of us actually had FUN while getting the lice out. Nit Hunters even had us come back for a FREE follow up visit since a lot of lice were found. But all of us were free of lice/eggs (because Hilary did an amazing job !! ) I knew up front what the cost would be since they don't charge by the hour, which relieved my mind. Having lice is stressful but Nit Hunters made it a pleasant experience and it was such a relief walking out of the office knowing we were all lice free !!!
- Sheila M
We used this service after we tried 2 bottles of Nix and failed to get rid of the lice. Once treatment and my daughter was cleared. When I found one adult lice 6 months later we did not bother with the chemical treatment. We came straight back to nit hunters who once again cleared her head and got rid of eggs with a once only natural treatment with no chemical. She also checked my hair and my other Childs hair to make sure we are all lice free. I would also recommend buying the comb that they use. Much better then the plastic once from the nix box. Very happy with the service and would use them again but hopefully not!
- Gill W
When both my kids came home with lice my first stop was the pharmacy. After following all the instructions of the drug store products, I was horrified when I found a live bug in my son's hair a week later. I needed help! I found Nit Hunters online and I am so grateful I did. Jill answered my inquiry very quickly and I had an appointment the same day. There are many great things about Nit Hunters - friendly, knowledgeable staff; clean, welcoming office with lots to keep kids entertained; all natural products (which smell great); 30-day guarantee; and most importantly, the treatment works! It gives me peace of mind knowing Nit Hunters is available if my kids get lice again. I highly, highly recommend Nit Hunters.
- Rachel F
Nit Hunters Ottawa has come to our last minute rescue twice! Each time I called, they accommodated and saw us the very same day. Very professional, knowledgeable and kind service! Definitely recommend Nit Hunters to anyone needing this service.
- P Perla
Nit Hunters saved the day! Found out our kids had lice at 3pm, and by 4pm we were starting treatments. Service and location were amazing! Met all of our expectations and more. THANK YOU!!!
- Melanie H
Short and sweet - Family of five and believe it or not grandma too, headlice! All of us! Within 4-6 weeks of our first child catching it. Nit Hunters was on the ball. We had next day service and within 2 - 2 1/2 hours we were in and out. All of us! Fully treated! Only thing left was was loads of laundry, which unfortunately but understandably, isn't included! 😉
Thank you thank you thank you!
- Joelle SA
After a month of trying to get our daughter`s hair rid of nits this summer, Nit Hunters came to the rescue. Hillary was fantastic, explained her approach, and it`s been a month and no lice! She recommended we didn`t need the full treatment since we were only down to a few nits. She also checked my other daughter`s hair for a small fee and she was all clear. Since then I`ve recommended friends to their services. Highly recommend them - the cost is very reasonable & the service top notch.
- Allan R
I was really impressed with the service me and my daughter received. I called Nit Hunters as soon as the school called to tell me my daughter had lice. I picked her up from school and we headed straight there. The service was friendly and efficient. I left there with confidence that we were rid of it! I also had my head checked just to be sure. I loved the peace of mind that gave me. I would recommend Nit Hunters to anyone. Worth the price!
- Tracey A
Very responsive and thorough! It’s a very welcoming space for families and during our daughter’s treatment we learned a lot. I felt that the price was very reasonable and the service saved us tons of time and stress!
- Alice N
I was having a hard time getting rid of the lice from my daughter hair I went to nit hunters in ottawa.The lady was awesome got rid of the lice and even showed me the processes of the difference of what she was doing.also few days later I was scared my daughter had it back called right away and took me asap to go take a look and redid her hair free of xharge even though their was nothing .. I found it was nice to have tv for kids to watch. Very clean great place and recommend this place to anyone that needs help getting rid of lice..
- Mia C
Jill was beyond professional and knowledgeable. My whole family felt comfortable and confident in her abilities. We drove over 45 mins to see her after a friend recommended her. I would do the same for anyone (especially moms) because her space is kid friendly and comfortable.
- Lo C
Fantastic experience!! Found them through a google search and drove from Brockville with my girls to have the treatment. Great people, great environment and they got the job done. I hope I don't have to come back but if I do this is where I will come.
- Kimberly H
Our daughter came home from school with lice this winter and of course like any first time lice-parents we panicked. Started googling solutions and freaking out about keeping our other kids away from her etc. Fortunately through a referral we came across Jill at Nit Hunters. Within 2 hours of discovering the lice my daughter was lice free. The process couldn’t be easier and more professional. Jill’s shop was clean, well laid-out and easy to find. Her price was very reasonable - especially considering the alternative do-it-yourself shampoos and such that they sell at the drugstore, which don’t guarantee anything and you really don’t know if you’re using right. We hope we never need her service again hahaha, but if we do it’s a no-brainer we will go back to Nit Hunters.
- Nino A
I am so glad Nit Hunters offers this service. Totally pleasant, open, clean and judgement free environment. I felt so at ease getting my hair checked for lice while my daughter got treated. With 2 other kiddos in tow, the toys and TV had them occupied. The lice did not fare as well as us; nits and bugs were banished from hair after one treatment, which is much better than I can say for commercially sold products. Nit Hunters gave us peace of mind and in the end likely saved our time, sanity, pocket books and scalps from multiple at home treatments. Thank you Nit Hunters team!
- Erin N
Very professional and kid friendly all at the same time! Was so happy to have found this place in my time of need and will never go anywhere else! Jill was quick and thorough and made us feel very comfortable! I would highly recommend this company!
- Gina C
Very amazing experience! Jill and her team are extremely friendly and fantastic with kids. They have an awesome setup where the kids can watch a show or a movie while getting their hair treated, which for my kids, made the process more enjoyable for them and kept them distracted so Jill and her team could do their job. I would recommend Nit Hunters 110%. They’re simply awesome.
- Lisa H
Fantastic experience! Not only was Jill proficient and successful at fixing our problem but her facilities were awesome. She has toys, ring pops and Netflix for Paw Patrol....also love the 30 day guarantee!
- Angie O
This company is awesome! I would recommend it to anyone! I went through head lice just after Christmas and it was awful. This is a one treatment thing! Bye Bye lice!😃
- Ashley W
Visiting from out of town and needing a quick solution to finding lice in my child’s hair, Jill at Nit Hunters was super accommodating, nice and helpful in saving the weekend! The Nit Hunters’ space was also pleasant for 2 grandparents and a younger sibling to wait/play in during the treatment. I would highly recommend Nit Hunters (and unfortunately we’ve had experience in multiple lice treatment centres, so the recommendation comes with some knowledge of what else is out there). Thanks again Jill!
- Geoffrey M
My 15 year old daughter came home with lice and it was my first time ever dealing with it. I heard horror stories but was fortunate never to have had to deal with it. I immediately went to the pharmacy and the pharmacist recommended a spray that I had to leave in her hair for 8 hours and repeat it again in 10 days. We only got one treatment and she was still having itching. Went back to pharmacy and got the cream rinse and I had her doing that weekly for 3 weeks. You had to leave the cream rinse for 10 mins which was easier to manage. By this time my younger daughter got the lice! I forgot to mention that both my girls have very long hair!! Someone at her school suggested we contact a lice clinic. I never even knew that lice clinics existed, as I mentioned, I never dealt with lice before. I contacted Jill at Nit Hunters and she was able to book us in right away. The place was very clean, quiet and spacious enough for her to work on their long hair! Turns out my younger daughter had a worse case of lice than my older one. Jill checked my head too while I was there. I didn't think I had any since I was taking precautions, but she found 20 nits (eggs) nonetheless! We got the one time and your done treatment and Jill was very thorough. We watched tv while she worked on us. She offers a 30 day guarantee of no lice after the one time treatment so after about 2 weeks we went back and she checked all our heads and we were lice free!! Now that I know where Nit Hunters is if I ever have a lice reoccurrence I will go straight to Jill at Nit Hunters! Thanks again Jill for your great service!
- Arti J
Owner was very accommodating when we wanted an appointment asap! She was very knowledgeable and helped me recognize what to look for and how to check for myself at home in the future. She was very reassuring and calm throughout the whole process of treating my two teenage daughters who had lice for the first time and a LOT of hair! She talked us through maintenance and taking care of things at home. I felt confident that this was something we could handle. The environment is warm and bright and clean with things for young and older children to do while they are treated and checked. I would recommend to others.
-Angela B
I had spent too much money and time trying to get rid of the buggers in my daughter’s hair. Literally about 6 weeks because I would always miss something. I went to Nit Hunters that was recommended by a friend of mine. One visit and she took care of it all. Amazing service both quality and friendliness. Highly recommend you take your child here. She guarantees the results as well for 30 days.
- Shawna K
The day before we were due to fly from the US to Canada to visit my sister-in-law and her family, I found lice on my daughter's head. Not wanting to be the worst house guests ever, we made an appointment with Nit Hunters the morning after we arrived. Nit Hunters gave everyone peace of mind that the problem had been eradicated. The whole family was grateful!
- Laura T
Called in the evening and had an appointment for the next day in minutes! Jill was reassuring and provided me with excellent directions and instructions. The place was well set up for children, including a big TV and choice of movie while they get combed out. The process went smoothly and the lice are gone. While I hope to not have to use their services again, I would highly recommend them. Having dealt with lice before at home on my own, this was much better and worth the cost.
- Sarah L
Nit Hunters is a clean and welcoming office and Jill was extremely helpful. It was our first time dealing with little pests and our experience was stress free. The One and Done treatment was just that. Thanks Jill!
-LH
Jill was fantastic! Answered my call before 7:30 a.m. and booked us in later the same day. Excellent customer service - hope to not have to use her services again as I'm not a big fan of bugs but highly recommend her.
- Trudy D
As a parent that is dealing with lice for the first time you panic and have no idea what your doing. There is so much false information out there. I was given Nit Hunters contact information by a family member. I called and was able to be squeezed in same day. The place is clean and set up to entertain the children as they get the treatment done. I was educated on facts and myths about lice. My daughter received the full treatment and we bought the repellent spray.
We have not had ANY problems since. It truly is a one time THOROUGH treatment and I wouldn't go any where else.
Also note that it ends up being cheaper and faster to take your kid here than to buy the drug store products.
- Michelle A
I was really impressed by Nit Hunters (Jill). I never thought adults could get lice... Well, all my family did. Jill was very very careful, as I have a lot of hair. A lot! She removed everything and asked me to go back for a review, just to be 100%. When I came back, I was completely lice free. She also gave me many tips for my little one (18 months old) and my 6-year old boy. She sells the best comb and her own products are amazing. Instead of spending $ at the pharmacy, I should have gone there on the first place. She's a very sweet and caring person and I highly recommend her services.
- Eliza B
Jill was so helpful while we were home over the holidays... We had a little scare with a possible 'nitchuation', and she came to our rescue - after hours, to boot! - with her miracle serum and comb.
Thanks to Jill we were clean and clear in no time and even have plenty of serum for future use (not that we're looking for an opportunity!).
Thanks again!
- Ashley M
Having three school aged long haired girls at home I have been on the watch for lice for what seems like forever. Checking is only half the battle I have discovered! When I actually found nits in my child's hair I was a little devastated & immediately overwhelmed as I looked at everything my child's head had come into contact with. After witnessing mom friends who battled with lice for over a month using pharmacy products that cost her as much as a professional treatment I had always said I would go straight to the pro's. Nit Hunters appealed to me based on their location & non-chemical approach. Jill was helpful when I called to book a next day appointment & gave me a few tips on what to do next. As soon as I walked through the doors to Nit Hunters I relaxed. Everything was clean & setup to keep a customer entertained while Jill did her thing. She was a wealth of information and really knows her stuff. I was provided with post-treatment instructions and knew how to use my trusty new nit comb. I truly hope I never have to see Jill again, but if lice ever makes a comeback I know where I am going.
- Renee B
Went here with my 2 young daughters so all of us could be treated for head lice. It was just a few days before Christmas and we were delighted to get an appointment so quickly. The salon was beautiful, very clean and with lots of entertainment options to keep the kids occupied when having their treatment. Jill was also really friendly and informative. A top class experience when you need it the most!
- Emer O
If you find yourself in the dreaded position of having to choose a lice removal service, choose Nit Hunters! This was my first time having to deal with lice; to say I was 'freaking out' was an understatement. Nit Hunters and Jill were everything I needed: they were knowledgeable, skilled, professional and so confident in their one treatment policy. They really helped curb my anxiety over the whole situation. Jill specifically is a mom with young kids and seemed to know exactly what to say to make me feel better and more in control of the situation. I also love that she is a local business owner and often onsite. After the initial shock of finding that first bug, I can honestly say that the whole process was quite smooth. If I ever find myself in this situation again (hopefully never ever!) I wouldn't think of wasting time or money on any drugstore products or calling anyone other than Nit Hunters. Thank you SO much!
- Sandra I
The service at Nit Hunters was nothing short of amazing. Jill is extremely professional and incredibly knowledgeable. She has an amazing way to communicate with her clients to reassure them, make them feel at ease with their situation and dispel any myths they may have heard. I strongly recommend visiting Nit Hunters should anyone you know is dealing with lice.
- Patrick B
We had an amazing experience at Nit Hunters, after almost 2 months of trying to get rid of my daughters lice we finally went to Nit Hunters. The girl who did my daughters treatment was amazing, she was professional and very knowledgable. They have free wifi and Netflix for the kids to watch while the treatment is happening. We have not found a single Nit or live bug since her treatment! Thanks Nit Hunters!
- Kasie G
Jill was amazing! I never thought adults could get lice head... I have a lot of hair - a lot! She patiently removed all the nits and bugs. She also helped me with products for the rest of the family, as my daughter is below 2 and had a reaction when we used over-the-counter products. Her place is clean and very welcoming, with toys and Netflix. She got me an appointment very quickly and the price is reasonable. I strongly recommend her for people of all ages.
- Eliza B
Amazing place!Cheaper than lice squad and great work. A good place. The kids and I were out fast. I recommend way more than lice squad.
- Beth J
As a mom of two young kids, and in the middle of the back to school hustle as a teacher, something like lice can really disturb the flow the the everyday routine. When we discovered it in my daughter's hair (who is in SK), I cried and began to throw everything we owned into the garage. I was tired and overwhelmed and did NOT have a clue what to do. After a useless trip to the drug store, to buy useless product that does not work, I stumbled upon Nit Hunters through a frantic google search. We contacted Jill by telephone at 9:30 at night. She answered and told us to come in at 8am the next morning. I was able to get checked before heading into work, along with my husband, son and daughter. We caught it early and only had to treat my daughter. Let me tell you- it was WORTH EVERY PENNY! It has been a week, and each night I check her hair to ensure its gone. So far, so good! The one and done treatment really does mean one and done. Do NOT waste your time and money on products that do not work. A huge thank you to Jill for restoring my sanity that I believe slowly slipped away when I discovered the lice. You literally are an angel! Bless you for the work you do! But, I hope to never see you again hahahahaha.
- Stacey L
Jill and her team saved my life! My son is mixed and has a very curly afro type of hair - when I saw a visible bug crawling in his hair. I freaked out and called right away.. Jill took me an hour later and got every last one of those buggers out (600 eggs, 25 moms – thanks to kindergarten). My son wont even let me comb his hair on a good and she was able to take care of everything – and just my luck, I too had lice – her assistant took care of me and we were officially lice free. For someone who has never encountered this problem before, Nit Hunters is amazing – I highly recommend them
- Renee R
I am very pleased with the services I received from Jill at Nit Hunters. I showed up with my family of five, she checked us all and treated 3 of us(including one very heavy case of a little girl with long hair, a toddler, and a mom with super thick hair!) and was very thorough and calm about the delousing process. Its been over a week and no sign of the little critters again! I would definitely recommend Nit Hunters and I will be back if ever needed!
- Lindsay H
Great set-up - TVs, toys, lots of space.Excellent service! Lice free since the visit!
- Sylvie V
Called Jill in a panic (of course :-)) and she was able to accommodate us that night... Great service and exceptional attention to detail!
- KL
This service saved my life! Highly recommend going to nit hunters before doing anything else.
- Sarah G
I would come to this place and no other place, even though the building is far from my place, it is well worth the trip.... works really well with kids and is a really good person. Oh and her combs are not $25 like other places I heard of, great comb and great service. My first visit and hopefully the last! (Not that I wouldn't want to come back, but who wants lice) her building is nice and clean, puts away the bugs in a sealed bag, very careful too. And I like the fact that she has plastic toys only and sanitize everything.
- Chrissy C
Jill at Nit Hunters was amazing. I was one week post surgery when my daughter and I went to her for help. My daughter had gotten lice over the summer. I did the R&C treatment according to the instructions and I thought they were gone but within a few weeks they were back. My husband treated her again the same day I was having surgery but we knew we needed help. Jill treated my daughter and checked me as well. Turned out I had nits but no live lice. Jill treated both of us, gave us a family discount, and sent us home with a quality nit comb. She provided a 30 day guarantee and I'm happy to say we are still lice free! I'm so thankful for Jill and Nit Hunters. She was efficient, knowledgeable and friendly. Best of all, her treatments are effective and I have peace of mind that these nasty little bugs are gone. Next time (hopefully it never happens again!) I will skip the R&C and go straight to Nit Hunters!
- Nadia M
Jill was really nice and accommodated my daughter and i for an inspection and de lousing right away. She was gentle and thorough and has a comforting way with both children and parents. Her studio is clean and my daughter appreciated watching netflicks during her session. She has abundant long hair so it took a while. The most important thing is it worked! Jill did such a great job that they did not return at the end of the egg life cycle. We are so pleased and grateful. Highly recommend this service!
- Rachel H
This place is fantastic! Easy to reach and friendly service. They made my daughter feel like she was at the spa! One treatment and they were gone. Highly recommend but hope I don't have to use their services again.
- Bruce B
Jill was so accommodating and helpful. My daughter contacted lice in her university residence and only had the weekend to deal with it. I called Jill on Saturday night and she took us on Sunday. Love the guarantee!
- Elizabeth F
Amazing service. If ever the kids bring these critters home again (Heaven forbid) I would come here again in a heart beat! Never, ever again trying to treat this at home. Ever.
- Sarah G
Thank you to Jill and her team for being so kind, knowledgeable and rid my kids of lice with no chemicals! I really appreciated how fast we could make an appointment and all your helpful tips! Your availability seven days a week is truly customer-service oriented and your pristine work space was hygienic and welcoming.
- Ellen T
The service was incredible! I found lice in my hair on a Saturday and they were able to take me in the very next day. It was very friendly, and they gave instructions on how to clean the house properly. I haven't found any sign of anything left. Definitely recommend going here!!
-Samantha O
After trying at-home treatments (Nix and Plantation Therapy) and them failing to effectively kill off the lice, I decided that I wasn't going to deal with this on my own any longer. My two daughters and myself were treated at Nit Hunters and all the lice and nits were removed. Almost two weeks later and there is no sign of any lice! It was worth every penny and if we are unlucky enough to have this happen again, I will not hesitate to go back. Jill and her staff were very professional and the locale is kid friendly.
- Sara C
Jill and her assistant were truly wonderful and helped us through an unpleasant situation. When I realized we had a problem I reached out for help as I wasn't sure a home remedy would be enough to treat the lice and nits. Jill answered my desperate call late in the evening, and the next day spent an hour and a half on my daughter making sure we had the all clear. I'm so grateful to Jill and her assistant for their help! There's no way I could have gone through this myself. I would highly recommend Nit Hunters to anyone going through the same situation. It's worth it!!! Thank you so much Nit Hunters!! I would give 10 stars if I could!
- Natalie D
Great service ! Jill accommodated my daughters on a holiday Monday. They played with toys and watched tv and she took care of the lice with one treatment.
- Sarah E
Sorry it has taken me so long to write this review! My daughter came home from school crying in January as it was the first time our family has had to deal with lice. The owner was so amazing and caring and stayed open late to fit us in. She even gave me a vacuum while my daughter was being treated and told me to vacuum the car. Luckily my daughter was the only one in our family who had it. If any of our family gets lice again we will be calling Nit Hunters right away! Thanks again soooooo much for your professionalism and the time you gave us to help get rid of lice! xo
- Dawn A
My daughter and I managed to evade lice for a LONG time but when it hit, it hit us hard! Jill and her team were amazing! We lucked out and they had openings the same day. The set up she has is amazing, salon-like with wifi to keep the kids entertained while they have their treatment and the staff is friendly. If I ever find myself in that situation again (and I hope I don't!) I will go straight to Jill at Nit Hunters!
- Melissa J
My son got lice and we went to Nit Hunters - they were excellent!!! The service was very professional and friendly and most importantly - they got rid of the lice in one treatment- well worth it!!! I would definitely recommend!
- Stephane T
Jill did a fantastic job, and most importantly it worked! After treating our children at home, unsuccessfully, with common pharmacy bought treatments, we were left with the mess of live lice still invading their heads! I was desperate! I called Nit Hunters and spoke with Jill, the clinic owner. I explained our situation to her and, hearing my plea, she scheduled appointments for us immediately - she even came in after-hours, along with a staff member, to treat us! The clinic itself was so clean and inviting! Our children were thrilled that they could watch TV during their treatments, and they were each given a candy ring to distract them. This was so much better than the "home treatment" option! Had I know about Jill's service prior to treating our children at home, I would have skipped that step and went straight to Nit Hunters! Thanks so much Jill for helping us rest easy after this nightmare!
- John M
Excellent service. The lice was truly gone after one appointment, they did an awesome job! Lots of other pluses: family discount, immediate availability, clean and nearby location. Just wonderful. I highly recommend it.
- Renata U
Jill offers the best service imaginable and it is a one stop solution. I recommend Nit Hunters 100%. One evening as I was putting my daughter to bed she tells me "mommy my head is very itchy". Didn't take long to figure out she had lice. Went immediately to the store and bought the shampoo. The nightmare began! The washing, the combing and hours of nit picking and one week later my daughter still had lice. Needless to say I was fed up. Looked online to find Nit Hunters so we dropped by. Kind and understanding would be an understatement. Jill offered to pre-check both of us and her assurances put me at ease. Right away we had an appointment for the following morning and we both got the treatment. My daughter didn't flinch or yelp from her hair being brushed! There was a tv for entertainment. Jill guarantees her work for 30 days, although our lice (yes I had it too) was gone forever. A big thank you to Jill and her staff for making this a positive experience and really coming through for us.

Jill and her staff are extremely efficient. Last year when my daughter got lice, it took me months to get rid of lice from her hair. Not wanting to go through the same headache again, I decided to go to a professional this year when she got it again. Nit hunters were recommended to me by a friend. In just one seating, they got rid of all lice from my daughter’s hair and at a very reasonable cost- I probably spend the same amount of money in trying different and useless over the counter products . The setup of the place is also very nice- they put on a movie for my daughter and gave her a treat to keep her entertained during the treatment. I will definitely go to them, if she gets lice again.
- Pallavi G
This is fantastic, efficient and affordable. I will not spend $100 on product ever again!
My daughter was Lice and nit free from the moment we left. Thank you ladies.
- Mia King
Jill at Nit Hunters was amazing. I have four kids and needed assistance with a lice outbreak ASAP. She answered my email immediately and booked my appointment fairly quickly. Her office had toys and kid friendly tv shows set up so my kids weren't bored while they waited for their turns. If we have to deal with lice again I will definitely take my kids back to Nit Hunters.
- Sara P
I had spent 1 month and almost $400 on the product that has been around for way to long! We we're not able to stop the lice at all, my daughter had her school trip in 1 day and the school would not let her attend if she had lice. I found Nit Hunters online, Jill made the appointment instantly for that day! (On a Sunday! ) the customer service, clean, and child friendly atmosphere was perfect!
The knowledge of these pests and the technique to remove them, Jill has mastered, along with breaking down the common myths of this prehistoric insect and using natural harmless products that we don't spray across fields to exterminate pests! Please don't waste time and money at the drug store on a useless product! Call Nit Hunters!
My daughter went on her trip the next day, we have been lice free since our visit with Jill.
- Ryan B
They answered my email at 10 p.m AND took me in after official closing time. Thank you!
- Anonymous
Amazing place. They were quick to book us and no wait time. They were very thorough on my daughter's long and thick hair. I would recommend this place to everyone.
- Amanda
Amazing service. So friendly and made me feel like everything was under control. My daughter was able to watch TV during her treatment which helped her patience through the process. I would 100% recommend Nit Hunters to others!!!
- Josee C
My whole family including my 3 kids, sister and my mom all had lice. I tried for 2 months with drug store products and $300 later I decided to call Nit Hunters. Jill was absolutely amazing. Hopefully we never get lice again but if we do we will go straight to Nit Hunters!!! So grateful that this amazing business is there for us busy working mommies who just need help.
- Carroll W
I love how easy the whole process was, from making the appointment to understanding what to do afterwards.
- Anonymous
Wonderful service and great staff. We really appreciated the extremely flexible scheduling. Thank you to Jill and her team for all of their help.
- T Dunn
Excellent service. Would definitely choose this over the home solutions which ended up being a waste of time and money. Would definitely recommend.
- Ori C
The young lady who help my daughter was superb. I was also able to meet Jill the owner who was very personable and reassuring. 5 star service all the way around and highly recommended.
- Clint C
Jill and Heather were my lifesavers! They stayed way past closing to rid my daughter and myself of nits! Service was above and beyond. Thank you!
- L Wile
The owner Jill was very professional and quick at responding to my call. I called Wednesday very stressed out. Jill answered the phone right away and booked me first thing Thursday morning. Jill is extremely knowledgeable and this is such a fantastic service. I have never dealt with this before and was really relieved that there is a service like this available as I have heard nightmare stories from friends. I would recommend Nit Hunters to anyone who is dealing with Lice. Jill also provided information to me regarding Post Treatment at home and how to get rid of the lice at home. What a relief this was. Thank you Jill for providing this fantastic service.
- Tracy O
My daughter had her first lice infestation and Jill was the first person I contacted through google search. Jill was so thorough, the lice never infected the rest of our family and my daughter only needed the one treatment. She is knowledgeable, extremely patient, professional and just simply very nice. I would highly recommend this business if you are ever so unfortunate to have creepy crawlers on your scalp.
- Rose
Well that was easy!
I only wish I knew about Jill and Nit Hunters when we FIRST realized my daughter had lice. Wasted $80 on treatments from the drugstore for her waist-length hair. Jill was super thorough and best of all an overall lovely person. Thanks so much!!!
- Andrea R
Exceptional services, very friendly and very thorough! The facilities are child and family friendly and the overall experience is very positive. We left feeling happy and 100% nit/lice free. Jill and Heather are wonderful and would recommend their services to anyone!
- Chris K
Jill is AMAZING in her work and oh so personable! Having lice is certainly not a pleasant experience to say the least however knowing that Jill is out there.... guaranteeing a "one treatment" solution makes it all so much better! :) No children (or adult) should have to go through the distressing and ineffective "store bought treatment" experience! Jill is worth every penny....and more!
I add 5 more stars to your excellent ratings!!!!!
Thanks Jill, you are the best!
- Lynne G
I can't say enough about Jill and her staff. Her professional and easy going nature put my children and me at ease right away. She was able to work around my schedule and treat my children on a Sunday.
This isn't our first encounter with head lice. Previously we have used over-the-counter treatments and spent countless hours combing nits. I was amazed that Jill was able to eradicate the all lice and nits in one sitting...and chemical free!!
We followed her post-treatment instructions to the letter, and I'm happy to say that we have been lice and nit free ever since. Be sure to buy her lice comb, it's awesome.
If head lice visits our family again I am definitely going back to Jill. It was worth every penny.
- Pam
We were so fortunate to have found Jill and her amazing services. Within an hour of finding the lice, Jill had set up an appointment with us and we were in her Spa like space. Jill was amazing and was able to remove all the lice and nits from our daughter and did a follow up later in the week to guarantee her work! I highly recommend Nit Hunters Ottawa.
- Kathleen
We highly recommend Nit Hunters! The service was thorough, knowledgeable and attentive + a great room set-up with the television along with plenty of activities to distract the children. The "done in one" treatment is a must. Jill and Heather were fantastic and took great care of our child!
- Mike M
Such a relief to have found this amazing place! I emailed them on Wednesday night in a bit of a panic when I discovered nits in my son's hair after I thought we were rid of them. I woke up Thursday morning to an email saying to call as soon as I woke up. Jill took us at 8am and rid my son and my daughter (who has hip length hair!) of all nits and lice. You have no idea the relief I felt when combing through both their hair and finding nothing a week later! Jill is sweet and really good with kids (especially my squirmy boy!) and so reasonably priced! With my daughter's hair our family use three bottles of Resultz and we bought a Robicomb. we still weren't rid of them. I paid the same price to have Jill painstakingly go through my kids' hair and get rid of it for good. Next time (let's hope there won't be!) I will go right to Jill. So worth it!
- Joa B
After talking with a few other places and trying a home treatment (impossible!) I called Nit Hunters. What a life saver! Very reasonable prices (I'd pay her again and again if it ever returns) . It was so easy to schedule an appointment and the office is nice and clean.
Jill is so kind, informative and knowledgeable! She answered all our questions and was very reassuring.
- Gigi P
We were so pleased to get this recommendation!! Having never had lice before, we were taught what to look for, given a thorough treatment (including a final magnify glass inspection), and provided with helpful tips for cleaning our home as well as preventative advice. The owner is very friendly and the studio is clean and geared towards children (great toys). We hope to never get lice again, but if this occurs, we will go back to Nit Hunters.
- Carol Ann D
Highly recommended! Very professional service and expertise. Extremely accommodating hours on weekends. I wouldn't hesitate to use this service again...but hopefully won't need to! :-)
- Erin M
Excellent experience...didn't hurt and I feel confident the lice is gone after the thorough treatment.
- Margaret C
Strongly recommend the services of Nit Hunters to anyone seeking immediate, efficient, and effective service. Thank you Nit Hunters for swiftly managing our unpleasant situation with confidence and making everyone feel at ease.
- N Guzzo
My daughter has come here twice and both Jill and Heather were fantastic. She's shy, but they were so patient and kind that now my daughter loves it here!
- Maddy K
Jill put our whole family at ease during this stressful time. The education she provided on head lice detection, prevention and treatment was invaluable. She sent us away with the perfect comb to use at home to keep the nits away, and showed us the right way to use it. There was no hard-sell. After thorough checks, thankfully only one of the four of us needed the full treatment, which was perfectly painless and smelled lovely. Toy room and free wifi kept the kids occupied. The place is new and clean and bright. Highly recommended if you have a recurring lice problem.
- Katie KP
When my son came home from school with lice, I instantly felt terrified. I searched online and found this place. It was like a breath of fresh air in the midst of a storm. Super friendly and comforting. After his treatment they were gone without a trace. Highly recommend to anyone in need. Thank you so much for making me feel like I was not alone in this situation.
- Allison T
My daughter got the dreaded lice awhile back I tried 2 treatments and thought I had killed them 😳 Turns out she didn't get rid of them and they had grown into an army . I knew at this point I couldn't get rid of those buggers on my own so my daughter told me she heard of a place called Nit Hunters . I immediately called Jill that morning and was given an app after school that day 🤗 Jill was so kind and informative. She was very thorough and precise in removing all the Nits and Lice 😬 We sat and watched Ellen and had some laughs. We went for a follow up a week later and my daughter was Lice free 🤗 I would recommend her services to anyone trying to rid the bug. Thank you for your service
- Amanda T
My 8 year old daughter was complaining that her head was itchy one Saturday night. After figuring out that it was lice, we tried the home kit of Nix. 5 hours later and then 3 on the Sunday I spent picking through her hair! My back was sore and I was exhausted!!! I was worried that I might have it as well and my husband had trouble looking through my curly black and grey hair. So we called Jill at Nit Hunters and she immediately scheduled us for the first appointment on Monday morning to check me and re-check my daughter. I was glad to hear that I was lice and nit free, but Jill found more nits and lice in my daughters hair! It only took 1.5 hours total and Jill was so amazing with my daughter. Having a large tv in front of the chair helped keep my daughter entertained throughout with no complaint!!! I am happy to say that 10 days later, I have been following the post treatment instructions as listed, and my daughters hair is lice and nit free:)
Thanks so much Jill!
- Stephanie
Great Service and Great people. Very affordable - Don't buy treatments for your kids, go to this place and get it done right the first time.
- Christian G
Jill was amazing! If I ever have to go through this again I will be calling Nit Hunters immediately. I wish I would have known about nit hunters before I put the pesticide on my child's head to try and take care of it myself. The treatment and combing didn't work for me but Jill and her team have this down to a science and had my daughters very long hair clean and clear within no time. I have since referred 5 other people and they all say the same thing. Outstanding service!
- K Martin
When my 7 year old daughter started scratching her head I started to panic. Right away I called Nit Hunters and Jill took us in right away, I was so glad we didn't have to wait to go in or attempt to handle it on our own. Jill was fantastic with my daughter. Jill did an amazing job! :) We went in for a follow-up and my daughter was lice free. Thank goodness! Thanks Jill for the great job you have provided to us. It was a very clean atmosphere, good location and good set up for kids. I will definitely recommend Nit Hunters to friends and family! Excellent :)
- Z Youssef
Friendly staff who are extremely efficient. Loved watching Spongebob while Ticks are destroyed. It may have been an hour and a half but my daughter did not complain at all before, during, or after. Thanks Miranda. You were Great.
- David M
When my four year old started scratch scratch scratching her head and I couldn't find anything I started to panic. Nit Hunters was an educational experience for us. I'm so glad we didn't wait to go in or attempt to handle it on our own. Jill was fabulous with my daughter and the location was amazing, a relaxing and very child friendly room. I learned so much about what to look for, and do at home....but would definitely go back for the help and treatment in the future. Jill even calmed my nerves and checked me out (a couple of times). My daughter has remained lice free, thank goodness! First lice experience couldn't have been handled any better.
- K Popp
Awesome service and highly efficient! It was a struggle with my step daughters daughter and just say I am one happy momma now! Live free :)
-Allison S
When my 4 year old daughter approached me about her head being itchy I started my search for head lice. I called a friend and she recommended Nit Hunters. I originally was just going in to purchase the comb because I was determined to do it alone. I treated my daughter but after a few hours and constant brushing attempts I continued to find live lice and sadly discovered it in my hair as well. That's when I knew I needed help. Jill was so understanding and calm and gave some great helpful tips on how to stop the lice from spreading to other family members. She thoroughly checked my other children while treating us. It's been over a week and we are lice and nit free thanks to Nit Hunters.
- Daniela G
The absolute best way to deal with lice.
Nit Hunters is incredible. I only wish I had known about them earlier. Jill is such a pro, not to mention super friendly, and I always leave with a calm assurance that my family is nit and lice free. Highly recommended.
- Brad S
What a great service! And so accommodating. What a nasty surprise we had with our daughter's lice. We found out at 4:30 pm on a Thursday and by 9 am the next day, she was lice free because of Jill. Clean location and so nice and helpful. I would highly recommend them.
- PP
I discovered my daughter had nits and lice and called Nit Hunters after trying unsuccessfully to treat them myself. It turns out I had them, too. The location was nice and comfy, the staff was super friendly and helpful, and there has not been a single nit in my or my daughter's hair since (knock wood). The process is chemical-free, which is important for me as a mother to a nursing baby. And they went above and beyond in customer service, right down to vacuuming our car seats in the parking lot. I recommend forgetting the drugstore stuff (it honestly doesn't work) and going straight there. It's not super cheap, but if any service is worth the money, it's this one.
- Kim M
We’ve dealt with lice in our family twice, this time I decided to go to a professional, best decision I’ve done! The owner (Jill) called me no more than 5 minutes after I email and was able to accommodate us the next day (which was a holiday). The staff was very professional and VERY through. Their service is guaranteed for 30 days. I also got amazing post treatment service. The place is set up with TVs and toys to make it easy for kids to seat and wait. If lice ever comes back I will definitely return.
- Ines E
I have never had lice in the family until this year!! So I went online and found Nit Hunters, Jill did an amazing job. She was able to remove the lice from our family in one treatment. Jill and her staff are professional, knowledgeable and super kind. Don't waste your money with the pharmacy products, GO SEE JILL IMMEDIATELY!!! Her methods, technique and product, including her own nit comb is better!!Her business is the key to getting rid of the lice!!! YOU NEED TO COME HERE!!! THANKS JILL!!
- Shanon H
Jill did an amazing job of getting our family lice free. We have never had lice in our household before. I attempted to remove the lice but it just seemed to take me forever and I was not getting everything. I called Nit Hunters and Jill was able to get us in the next day. We went in for a follow-up a week later and we were all lice free. Thanks Jill for the great job. I will definitely recommend Nit Hunters to friends and family.
- Kim E.
Jill offers an amazing service! When lice is involved, it's an issue you want to deal with right away. Jill responded to me the same night I emailed, actually within about half an hour! Booked an appointment the next day and I could not have asked for a more phenomenal service. She really walks you through each step and what needs to be done when you get home. I cannot forget, Jill even went to the office on Christmas Eve! Not sure any other company would have done the same. She really puts your hair first and wants to make sure it's gone! I would recommend NitHunters to anyone, forget the pharmacy treatment, this company is totally worth the piece of mind.
- Bailey M
Don't waste your money or your time with anything else. Only wished I had known about them as soon as we found the lice. Expert service saved my teenage daughter's very long hair and ended the stress and frustration. Worth the detour and every penny!
- Bianca P
Brought my daughter after the first at home treatment failed miserably. the stuff you purchase at the drug store are expensive and there combs suck. We went here and we spend two hours and she was done. I no longer had to worry about lice and if I needed to treat again. They also checked my head and found a few babies so I got a treatment as well. I highly recommend going here. It would have been cheaper had I not bothered with the at home treatment and just gone here to begin with.
- Martine M
Jill was very friendly and professional, making us feel right at home! We had our whole family treated after suffering for 6 months +. We tried every treatment on the market and nothing worked! Our frustration was gone in one day when we met Jill! The treatment is very thorough and it works!!! Thank-you so much Jill!
- Anne-Marie Stargratt-Robinson
I highly recommend Nit Hunters. On a lazy Sunday morning while innocently brushing my 5 year olds long beautiful hair I saw it run. Ahhh head lice! No need to panic, when lice happens just call Nit Hunters. Jill and her team turn chaos into calm. The inviting atmosphere and all-natural products made our ordeal feel more like a trip to the spa. My daughter was pampered while one of her favourite cartoons played on the television. Her siblings busiest themselves with the toys, puzzles, games and books on offer in the play area.
- Sara Anne Wilson
Our whole family had our heads checked by the experts at Nit Hunters and Jill provided instructions after our appointment ensuring our home, car and family were footloose and lice-free! Jill expertly resolved our nit issues, and we are so grateful. The clinic is clean and welcoming with a fantastic set up to keep kids and adults alike preoccupied while getting treatments. We were able to get in the same day as calling. Jill clearly knows her stuff and is worth every penny. Highly recommend.
- Nancy Ceresia
I can't speak highly enough of Jill and her services at Nit Hunters. She is professional, knowledgeable, reassuring and thorough. I was lice free in one visit and it was well worth the reasonable price. I am so glad I found this service and would highly recommend it to anyone struggling with lice removal.
- Meredith Blogg
This place was great and I would (and have) recommend it to anyone who finds lice and does not have the time or skill to get rid of it on their own. When I found out both my children had lice I had no idea what I would do. There was no way I could get them both to sit for hours while I tried to remove all the eggs. The Nit Hunters were able to keep my kids entertained and happy while quickly and effectively removing all the live lice and nits from their heads. I found the price to be very reasonable for the service provided. Although I hope to never have to go back - I wont think twice about returning if I have to!
- Leanne
When your kids come home with Lice it is a horrible experience. The staff at Nit Hunters literally eliminated the problem and counselled the best way to ensure the problem would not re-occur. Advice I would give to anyone is if your kids get lice do not bother with drug store solutions. Go see the professionals. You do not want to deal with missing an egg and dealing with this over and over. The staff are literally the best. Kids loved going! They watched tv while they were treated.
- Chad S.
Words can not describe the experience I had at Nit Hunters. You are treated like royalty. Nit Hunters is super clean, comfortable, cozy and welcoming. Jill is very knowledgeable, very informative, and thorough. She makes you feel right at home by offering you coffee or water and you get to watch tv while getting your hair done.
- Stephanie G.
I am very grateful my friend recommended you. You were fantastic with my daughter and gentle. She barely lets me comb her hair without crying. Thank you for being kind and non-judgemental to this very anxious mom. I'm happy to report day 4 post treatment and haven't found a single egg!
- Mary L.
Nit Hunters Ottawa was great and solved our lice issues in one family visit. Well worth it as many families spend weeks or months trying to get rid of lice. Staff were really friendly and helpful with my little kids and the location is clean and bright. Definitely recommend it!
- Emily W.
Like so many parents who discover lice on their child; I treated my 6yrs old thoroughly with a treatment bought at the drug store. After 2 treatments I thought I got every last one. I then got a call from the school informing me that my other child had lice. I then decided to call Nit Hunters and Jill took us that evening. Not only did my other child have a lot of lice and nits but my 1st child STILL HAD THEM! To make matters worse I had them too. I have long and very thick hair and Jill at Nit Hunters got every single last one of those pesky nuisance lice and nits. Jill was amazing with my 4yrs old and 6 yrs old and we have been lice/nit free since. I truly believe that if every family would just skip the home treatments and leave it to the professional Nit Hunter then we could stop spreading them. Thank you Jill at Nit Hunters for taking such great care of me and my family.
- Tanya W.
Jill at Nit Hunters is very patient and reassuring. When my family came across lice, it was a first for us so we were a little stressed. Jill was available for immediate help and consultation. I cannot convey how nice it was to receive professional help so quickly! Jill offers a free follow up a week later - peace of mind is worth every penny. Thank you again, Jill!
- LCL
Lice happens. When we got lice recently I decided to have a professional check us over. I landed on Nit Hunters and am so glad I did. Jill is beyond professional and so kind. She was very understanding and put all my fears to rest. Not an easy thing to do when I am freaking out about bugs crawling all over us! Her space is clean and very kid friendly. Also nice were the comfy chairs she has for people to sit in while she deals with the nasties in your hair. I will never consider dealing with lice by myself after going to Nit Hunters. So worth the money.
- Sydny B.
After discovering lice in my daughters hair only days before our summer holiday, I needed a solution ASAP. I called Nit Hunters straight away. Jill was able to see my daughter first thing the next day, and also perform head checks on our whole family. She was knowledgeable, professional and extremely thorough. Her treatment involved a comprehensive comb out to remove all lice and nits. This process was a lengthy one, but we really appreciated the fact that her salon had a TV, some colouring supplies and children's toys to provide ample entertainment for my other two kids. Her location is convenient, clean and bright, and close to costco (always a bonus in my books!). She provided follow-up instructions for the post treatment combing, but because she did such a great job the first time we did not find anything. We are so thankful for Jill and Nit Hunters. With 3 kids, I'm sure we will be back at some point - it's nice to know there is a place we can go that makes dealing with lice so quick and painless. Thank you!!!
- Shannon B.
I have never got lice before in my life! I was in a public school with tons of live outbreaks and worked in a daycare for 3 years- never ever caught it!
So when I ended up with a lice infestation I was so happy to go to nit hunters.
Again, I had SO many. But Jill got them all! I went back for a check and sure enough they were all gone! She is amazing and does so much to make sure her clients are okay. My mom and I (we share a house) were pretty freaked out about me having lice- but she did so much and said so much to give us complete peace of mind.
Thank you Jill of nit hunters! You're awesome!
- Ilyena and Ronda
I contacted Nit Hunters (Jill) when I noticed my daughter had head lice. It was over the weekend and I called her Monday morning, I was panicking and wanted it gone! She was able to see us that day and did a great job!
She's kind and cares about her clients, she even booked an appointment a week later just to double check my daughters hair. (my daughter has extremely curly hair and it's not easy to remove) We went back for the check up and she spent time going through the entire head patiently for a second time!!
I would definitely recommend Nit Hunters to anyone needing their services.
YOU ROCK JILL!!! :)
- Keana W.
After several people, including a pharmacist, telling me that there was nothing on my head, a friend finally confirmed what I knew to be true. I found Jill doing a google search for the product that she told me to go to the pharmacy to get. I was going to go to her house later for her to do the treatment for me. Right below the link for the other product I saw nit hunters. I called right away. Jill gave me an appointment that afternoon. She also checked my son who I brought along with me and then explained later how to check the other two.
I was well taken care of. Jill put my mind at ease immediately. Knowing that she knew what she was doing and that the products she uses are not only incredibly effective, but non-toxic to me, I was relaxed. The atmosphere is welcoming, but that has more to do with Jill herself than her space, which is also great!
I left about 90 minutes later bug-free and feeling better physically because I no longer had to scratch every 5 seconds.
Thank you, Jill! If I ever have the misfortune of getting lice again, or know a friend who has, I know where to go. Worth every penny.
- Tiffany C.
Just amazing experience! Save yourself a lot of Time and money. Don't go to the pharmacy, stop combing and cleaning. You Go there once you Clean well when you get back and that's the END! Not weeks or months of doing this!!! She is also very flexible for booking appointments. We called at night, I was there at 8am the next day.
- Caroline V.
Jill is amazing. Awesome service! Thanks for a great session and conversation!!
