Head lice sometimes go away on their own because there are not enough insects to maintain the infestation, or they may persist for an indefinite period without treatment. With treatment, the infestation usually goes away within about two weeks.

Answer 22

u have to get the over the counter lice shampoo at the drugstore, like walgreens or cvs..its the only thing that gets rid of them, plus you gotta bag everything like pillows and stuffed animals in double trashbags and leave them in there for a week at the least so that the lice suffocate in it, then you have to vacuum the enitre house and wash everything in hot water in the washer, and spray everything down with special lice killing spray that u buy at the drugstore as well...lice are hard to get rid of and spread like crazy...the lice themselves live in your hair forever until you treat it and they hatch thousands of eggs every day that hatch and then you have more and more and more of them.... and even more difficult to get rid of are the lice eggs they stick to your hair like glue u have to pick them out with a special comb..

its terrible!! but get the shampoo and supplies asap! cus the longer you wait the harder it is to get rid of

Answer 24

Lice live in your hair, until you get rid of them. They lay eggs over and over, and they're babies lay more eggs. There are store brand items that you can use, but they are pretty expensive. Here are some cheaper alternatives.

Coconut or Tea Tree Oil (It kills lice, destroys them from the outside in)

Mayonnaise (Put it on your hair, cover with plastic wrap, and leave on for SEVERAL hours. DO NOT ingest it after it's been on your hair, don't l**k your fingers, mayonnaise will make you very sick if it's been left out of the refrigerator too long)

There is a battery operated lice comb you can buy at most drugstore type stores (Rite Aid, CVS, Sav-On, etc...) It basically electrocutes the lice.

Have someone look through your hair, and remove all the lice eggs that are attached close to the roots of your hair. If you find any live lice, get matches, or a lighter, and burn them.

Get Suave Coconut Shampoo and Conditioner. This contains the coconut oil in it. After you've removed all the lice from your hair, use this daily. It will help stop an infestation.

Good Luck!

Answer 25

Answer 27

Let me tell you how to get rid of lice, because they are very hard to get rid of. They lay 8-10 eggs per day.

You need to get a jar of coconut oil from the health food store. Pile it on just as you would a hair treatment. This will not only suffocate the lice, but the eggs as well. You need to do this for 10 days, and leave the treatment in for an hour. Its not an easy task, but when you get done you will be lice free, unlike many of the unlucky people on the internet with their stories.

Use your lice combs, go through your childs (assuming) head every day and remove what you can see.

As far as the bed linens, put all the pillows in garbage bags for the entire 10 days, change bedding each night and vacuum the mattress regularly. Lice cannot live past 3-4 days out of the head. Some recommend freezing the pillows, but I doubt thats neccessary. All this worked for my child and my friends daughter, the one that gave them to her, had it for a good month longer because she didn't believe in my remedy. I had no problems the way I did it.
