Hair Wizard Salon – The Head Lice Masters
Today’s Jens List sponsor offers a wizard of a service to get kids back to school and parents back to their everyday life. In the kids-friendly salon they create a fun atmosphere for the children who might otherwise freak out at the prospect of have their heads treated for lice. For many families, head lice are a private and often time, uncomfortable and embarrassing experience. Head lice are a common affliction affecting millions of Americans each year. It has nothing to do with cleanliness, environment, status or income. In fact, lice are attracted to anyone who has hair on their head, since they need hair for laying their eggs (nits) and scalp to live and feed on. Go to them OR they can come to you! Covered by some insurance companies! Call (818)-501-0101 for an appointment and lice won’t have a chance!

MUSIC Lessons: Flute, Piano and Theory
Research suggests that music lessons may enhance intelligence and academic achievement, build self-esteem and improve discipline. Neuroscientists have found that musicians benefit from heightened brain activity that allows them to process information from their eyes and ears more efficiently than non-musicians. This part of the brain plays a crucial role in reading. Playing an instrument is a great way to learn about problem solving, abstract reasoning, visualization, and spatial relationships. McGill University and Guildhall (England) trained with more than 10 years experience. For a gift that lasts a lifetime, call Debi at (818)783-6146.
