Help please!!! 1 week away from wedding day!!!

Question

My bridesmaids recently found out they have lice and i'm am afraid that I might get it before me wedding day!!! One of them has gotten rid of it but the other one apparently still has it bad.

Any ideas how I can keep it way from me without being mean/rude.....

Can I use the lice shampoo even though I dont have it?? I've checked my head over and over because i've been itchy but havent found anything....Any ideas??

Help please....This would be a nightmare :(

Answer 1

Surely she will try to have it gone by then.  Who wouldn't try to get rid of it asap?  See your doctor for proper advice.

Those shampoos can be dangerous.  They can cause reactions.  They are actually a pesticide.  Don't use it unless you know for sure. I'm a nurse.  Have somebody check your head.

Lice like it behind the ears.  Also, they attach to the hairs and are shaped like tear drops. (i think that is their eggs) I haven't seen it, but other nurses have described it to me.

One nurse said, "It isn't a sin to get head lice.  It is a sin to keep it."      lol  I'm itching now.  Maybe  if you tell a nurse at your doctor's office, they will check you for free and give you advice.  Please don't be embarrassed to ask.

Answer 2

god bless your heart, even it you think you might not have it, you should really go ahead and use the shampoo, these bugs can live for hours off the warm body. good luck.

Answer 3

just use the lice shampoo just in case ....but that is the best you can do i believe for now. just make sure you hair and your head are clean. :D  

Answer 4

OMG that stinks.  I would go ahead and use the shampoo and just be EXTRA hygienic.  Congratulations!
