Lice...GROSS! How to get rid of it?

Question

I'm fourteen and I think I have lice. I've already found two of them on my head, and it itches like CRAZY! It's really gross...what's an easy way to get rid of it?

I can't tell my mom, or else she will tell everybody else! (I haven't been in contact with anyone else, and she barely has any hair anyways, and she doesn't have it.) What's a quick and easy way to get rid of it? It's so disgusting...

Answer 1

There is no easy answer.  There are over the counter products and I suggest going to the drug store and asking the pharmasist what he/she recommends.  You will need to do exactly what it says and if I not mistaken you will need to give yourself 2 treatment so many days apart and have to use a special comb to comb through your hair to make sure there are no nits left in it.

You will need to wash all  your bedding and what ever your head comes in contact with.  If you have siblings they should be made of aware that you have lice.  Your mother should be told.  Lice can jump and they live off of human blood.  

Another way of ridding them is to saturate your head in olive oil.  You will need to leave it on your hair for at least 30 minutes and then it is hard to get washed out.  Treating with the over the counter is a better idea.

Answer 2

Aww you poor baby I feel so bad for you!! When I was in the 6th grade I got lice from a friend and it was horrifying! Anyway, dye your hair. Get like 2 or 3 bottles of dye. Do it at home. The hair dye kills the lice. There is also stuff you can buy at stores that works too.

Oh its hard to get rid of you need to tell your mom and go get some lice treatment at any pharmacy or store they have it, then you need to do the treatment and go through it with a comb to make sure you get all lice and eggs then you need to wash everything that your head has come in contact with like jackets, clothes, pillows, pillow cases, towels, anything because it gets everywhere. Its a mess to get rid of but def tell your mom. Good luck!!!

Answer 4

Shave your hair off before they spread and start eating your head.

Answer 5

Wash your hair everyday

Answer 6

Go to the store and buy a RID lice removal kit. You shampoo your hair with the special shampoo and then use this special comb to comb out all the bugs. You might need to repeat again in a week or so. After that they should all be gone.
