[quote=Anonymous]Great thread.  Thanks, OP!

Just wanted to add my experience that heavy conditioner (left in the hair) plus careful combing (to pick out each nit!) did the trick when DD got lice earlier this year.

The combing took about an hour, but really wasn't awful.  Having the conditioner in the hair while I combed and picked made it easy.  DD usually hates brushing her hair, but this was really smooth.  And we put on a TV show that we both liked, sat on the floor on towels, and just chilled out.  Repeated it again a week later (to get any new nits we may have missed) and that was that.  No RIT or pesticides.  Just conditioner and a Licemeister comb.

I learned this from my brother, whose son had lice a few months earlier.  His advice was to buy a Licemeister comb ASAP so it's at home, ready to go if you need it.  Very good advice.  Once you discover lice or nits, you won't want to wait another second before getting rid of them!  :-)

P.S.  Just thinking about this ALWAYS makes my head itch . . . . ugh.[/quote]
