commit to a penalty when you fail. >> reporter: it's called the pavlok wristband. a bracelet that has one primary job, to send an electrical shock to your body every time you find yourself doing something wrong. >> there's a real power in using a little bit of pain to help you break your bad habits. >> reporter: watch as the inventor tests it out. >> that kind of hurt. >> reporter: here's how it works. the device is designed to give yourself a shock any time you give in to temptation. but other people can also use an app to remotely send you a jolt to keep you in line if they catch you misbehaving. you can even program it to shock you if you don't stick to your healthy plan. it's not the sort of shocking pain a taser delivers or your the jolt your pet gets from its dog collar but 350 volts isn't nothing. the first time is always the worst. ha. >> feels kind of like if you

were to touch a doorknob after rubbing your socks on the carpet. >> reporter: the internet packed with testimonials from people who have used the pavlok to help quit biting their nails, eat less, even stop smoking. >> i'm just more aware of what i'm doing. >> reporter: while some experts say the device is likely safe, it's not a science. >> devices like this don't really work. unless these are locked on to people's wrists, they're going to take them off. >> reporter: but some psychologists say it might work as a temporary fix for ill-fated resolutions. for "good morning america," kendis gibson, abc news, new york. >> how does it know when you're eating french fries? >> i think you give the app to your friend. and they buzz you. >> otherwise you're doing it to yourself. >> right. >> you guys going to zap me. >> you should try it. >> do you know how to do it? >> i don't know. i thought they were going to do it by remote control. >> this is fascinating tv. >> when it works it'll be available starting in april. >> we'll get back to you on that

but right now it's time for "the morning stir" and a growing stir we read about in "the new york times" talking about spas for kids. more and more of them are popping up across the country offering everything from massages to manicures but some parents are wondering if it's too much. abc's reena ninan is here with the story. good morning to you, reena. >> good morning to you. some say it's kind of like going to the dentist, get them while they're young but others question princess facials and pedicures before potty training? really? ♪ manis, makeover, even a fashion runway, child spas giving the business of beauty a much younger face. at the nationwide chain sweet & sassy salon and spa, a team of cosmetologists cater specifically to your kids. >> we do theme birthday parties for little girls. they're treated like the little princesses that they are. >> reporter: salons for tweens across the country growing faster than their pint-sized patrons. according to the international spa association, about 25% of spas in the united states offer

treatments for children under 13. with 51% offering them to teens. some moms say it's a great way to teach their children about personal hygiene and relaxation. >> it's something for them to feel special. i want them to have that occasion because it doesn't happen every day. >> reporter: 33-year-old carrie arushman threw her a 7-year-old daughter paige's birthday party complete with updos, a princess crowning ceremony and even a pink limo. but it can be costly. her bill $400, a pretty penny. >> beauty, while it's not something we need to judge each other by, it is a way to boost your confidence so if you're feeling good about yourself outwardly, you feel good about yourself inwardly. >> reporter: but some parenting experts say there is a big difference between bonding over mommy/daughter manis and turning your little girl into a pampered princess. >> every parent has the right to

pamper their little kid but they have to also weigh that against the message they're sending. is this putting too much on the way they look or being pretty or perfect. >> reporter: no question, these girls love it. >> do you feel good when you're all dressed up and pretty? >> yeah. >> reporter: a day full of glitter and glam sealed with a princess wave. oh, but it makes some of those little girls so happy. remember when mom would take you to the skating rink and have pizza afterwards to celebrate your birthday. the year was 1985. apparently the bar just keeps going up. >> i remember so well going to get a manicure thinking it was such a special treat as a little girl but to go get massages together, a lot of people say this is going to spoil this next generation. >> some other people say it's like doing something that mommy would do so it gives the girls a sense of empowerment. but i say, teach them how to put their sippy cup in the dishwasher. >> yes. that's empower. >> there you go. >> agreed agreed. reena, thank you so much. coming up, the new trend in hair care. why you may never shampoo again? and then "american horror
