[quote=Anonymous]I went through this with my son a few years ago. You can do the same thing that any clinic or any "treatment" does, for free. It just takes time and commitment. Douse the hair with olive oil and put a cap or plastic wrap over the head for a about 20 minutes. This slows them down, so you can comb them out. Then, comb and comb and comb until you are sure there none left. One time I combed for probably about 2 hours or more. Just sat him in front of the TV and we were just very very patient. Then, I sent him to school and told him to just stay away from "Michael" and "Johnny" until the school gets this thing under control. After about 4 or 5 bouts of this, this last round and staying several feet away from the kids who just couldn't get rid of their own until the school really came down on them, was the last time he ever had it. Those clinics are rackets, just use your elbow grease and patience.[/quote]
