I found out i had lice yesterday. I was flipping out! It freaks me out and I need to get rid of them FAST! Shocked

I would like to do something easy like leaving my hair in a shower cap full of mayonnaise overnight or something but

I need something quick and easy that is 100% effective (I have about a million nits and they are soooo hard to get out by myself)

I need someting that does not do permanent damage to my hair AND is easy to get out of my hair, basically, by the next day (I love my hair)

Please, somebody, help me fast!!!

Go to your local health store and ask them for their Sasafrass oil and the mixture to get rid of lice, and then follow up with tea tree oil in your shampoo

Ive been through three kids with lice.Tried all the OTC products and even took one to the doc for a prescription.NOTHING WORKED! A friend told me about this thick hair conditioner that smothers lice and it worked immediatly.I wanted to call the manufacturer to let them know it conditions hair and kills lice.I bought it at Sally Beauty supply and its called Le Kair Cholesterol plus hair conditioner.Slather and goop it on .wear shower cap and go to bed.Rinse off in shower in morning and no more lice.

Be sure that you wash all of your linens and anything that had contact with your head. All you need is one to survive to have it happen all over again. Good luck.
