If you ever actually have to get rid of them, here is my recipe for lice free hair(which has worked every time)...<br />First, use Listerine mouth wash. Start with dry hair and saturate the entire head with plain brown Listerine. Then twist hair up and cover with a plastic shower cap for about 30 minutes.<br />Second, rinse out Listerine. You can wash the hair.<br />Third, use a pointed tip squeeze bottle and completely cover the scalp and hair with olive oil. You must get the scalp where the little bugs live!! Then twist up hair, wrap with saran wrap and cover with a new(clean) shower cap. Leave on over night.<br />The next morning wash hair. You may need to use dish soap to get all the oil out of the hair.<br /><br />I do this every 7 days until I have completed it 3 times.<br />Now for prevention...<br />Tea Tree Oil shampoo, lice hate the smell. All of my family uses this.<br />I also use a lice repellent hair spray on my elementary aged children. You can find a whole line of products at Ulta.<br />Hope this helps :)Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07875337259263476400noreply@blogger.com
