What are 4 symptoms of head lice?
Intense itching on the scalp, body or in the genital area. A tickling feeling from movement of hair. The presence of lice on your scalp, body, clothing, or pubic or other body hair. Lice eggs (nits) on hair shafts. Sores on the scalp, neck and shoulders.
How do salons remove lice from hair permanently?
A mayo-treatment can suffocate and stun the lice, and make them slower, so they can be caught with the comb easily. You can also use hair oil to do the same, and simply comb through with a lice-comb to get rid of the pesky critters. Don’t forget to follow this as many times as necessary, though!
How do you permanently remove lice and eggs from hair?

What causes head lice?
Head-to-head contact with an already infested person is the most common way to get head lice.

What product kills lice eggs?
Nix Ultra® kills lice and, unlike some lice treatments, kills eggs too, by suffocation. Nix Ultra® is specially designed to eliminate hard-to-kill Super Lice, which have developed resistance to many traditional lice treatments.
