Make sure that the product is effective and not only kills the lice, but the eggs. For that you have to check the hair daily to make sure you have removed all the nits and continue removing remaining. Finally you have to keep re-entering the head, and in this case, the most effective product is vinegar. Every time you wash your hair to children with lice shampoo, rinse once the vinegar must bring them, in terms of the amount of vinegar should not be excessive, to get it you can make a mixture of water with a small splash of vinegar, so that the child does not smell like vinegar but if we stick our nose in her hair, not bearing that odor is so striking, it is only for lice. If lice contamination persist throughout the course, is that a child is a carrier and is not covered. To prevent our having them again, it will take this operation for the duration of the classes.
Another good solution is to use a comb or tooth comb close together, but not kill, it can help you maintain control. If used every three days for two months can be exterminated. To use untangle hair, place the hair forward, pouring water into the sink with the cap on and pass the comb back and forth taking care to touch the scalp. Obviously, this must be done especially when we see them much head scratching or when they have had lice. After this operation, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the comb so that it is another source of infection.
One way to prevent that girls with long hair can get lice, is not wearing her hair down. On shortie hair well in children also usually not a good field for the growth of lice. In adults is less frequent occurrence of lice, and under no circumstances appear in dyed hair.
