how to use lice in the hair

Question

Accepted Answer

hi...Wash your child’s hair and scalp with ordinary shampoo. Then massage a generous amount of oil or hair conditioner. (If you have an infant, wet her hair with warm water and apply just conditioner).
Detangle her hair with a wide-tooth comb and then comb her hair with the lice-comb. Part her hair into as many sections as possible and make sure you comb all the sections properly. Start combing from scalp to the tip of the hair. Conditioner-coated as well as wet lice and eggs will stay still and hence will easily get caught while you are combing. Wash the comb properly before you start combing another section. If not, use a cloth to wipe it clean and then continue combing.
Once you have finished combing all the sections, rinse her head again. Use the same procedure to get rid of any remaining lice.
Try weaving a piece of thread in the lice-comb and using it to comb your child’s hair. This will help in eliminating the small lice as well. For the remaining, you will have to use your hands.
Make your child sit on a piece of a newspaper while you are combing her hair. If you see any lice falling on the paper, flush them down the toilet or the drain.
Repeat this procedure 4 times leaving a gap of three days in between two sessions. This will eliminate all lice in your child’s hair and your child will be lice-free within 17 days.
