Lice Specialists FAQ in Grapevine, TX

Do lice like dyed hair?

Lice don’t care if hair has been colored. As long as a louse can grab on to a hair strand, it can make its way to the head where its food supply (blood) is. Myth #6: Lice like dirty hair. Head lice actually prefer clean hair since it is easier for the female to attach her eggs.

How do you get rid of lice super fast?

Suffocate the Lice Soak your child’s head in olive oil or coconut oil. Cover with a shower cap for at least 2 hours (or preferably overnight). When ready, remove the shower cap, and separate the hair into small sections, then use a metal nit comb to carefully remove the lice and eggs. Rinse the hair well with shampoo.

Is it better to comb lice out of wet or dry hair?

Make sure hair stays wet with conditioner during combing. Metal or plastic nit combs are available at your local pharmacy. If the comb tugs the hair, use a wide toothed comb first and more conditioner, then try the nit comb again.

What soap kills lice?

If you’ve tried over the counter lice treatments recently and feel it’s not effective, try alternative methods: Apply mineral or olive oil to hair, leave on 30 minutes, wash out with Dawn dish soap. Apply white vinegar, leave on 30 minutes, rinse out.

How do you get rid of lice permanently?

Benzyl alcohol (Ulesfia). This lotion kills active lice, not eggs. Ivermectin (Sklice). This lotion kills most head lice, even just-hatched lice, with just one use. Malathion (Ovide). This very strong lotion paralyzes and kills lice and some lice eggs. Spinosad (Natroba).

How long can lice stay dormant?

Off the host, adult head lice can live about two to four days at 74 degrees Fahrenheit (F) and one to two days at 86 degrees. Nits will remain alive off the host for up to 10 days; they will not hatch at or below room temperature (68 degrees F).

How do you wear your hair when you have lice?

The common braid, a French braid, a fish tail braid, or a crown braid are all excellent hair styles to keep your hair up and out of the way of others. Any braid type that keeps your hair pulled back and contained is perfect for helping to prevent your contact with head lice.

Can you grab lice with your fingers?

Eggs and nits also stick to the hair shaft, so they don’t come off easily. If you try to pull one out of the hair with your fingers, it won’t budge—it will move only if you use your nails to get behind it and force it off.

Where do head lice come from in the first place?

Usually, you would have to be in head-to-head contact with a person who has lice. This can be common in schools or kindergartens, where children are often close together. Sharing combs, brushes, towels, hats, and other personal items can hasten the spread of head lice.

Does hairspray prevent lice?

Hairspray makes it harder for the louse to grab hold. The smell of hairspray and the use of solvents (sad but true) in them can also deter creepy crawlies from finding their way in. Not to mention that if you’re tying longer hair back, you’ve got a double whammy.

What does a dermatologist do for lice?

Your dermatologist may prescribe a medicated shampoo to kill head lice. This product may come with a special comb to run through the hair for removing nits.
