When the dreaded nits word enters your house there's not a lot you can do except go out and get something to get rid of them. As my eldest daughter was growing up, she was frequently catching head lice at school. The fact she had long thick hair didn't help much at all. As there were so many products on the market it was difficult to know what to buy, and with all the claims that the head lice were becoming immune to the products as we as a population were using products too much, it was even more confusing. I went through a phase of treating the head lice daily with a wet conditioned hair and ... more

Head Lice, more often referred to as ‘Nits!’ are part of every day life and affect most of us at some stage in our lives and more often than not they’ll strike during childhood. Unfortunately for my daughter she has given refuge to these irritating little so and so’s quite a few times since starting school and now that she’s 9 I can say that I’ve had a fair amount of practise at the nit-combing technique (aren’t you just jealous?) along with a fair few products on the market that ‘claim’ to either deter or better still eliminate either the head lice, the eggs or bingo BOTH!

So to say that i was happy that there was a product out there that, was extremely effective and quick and easy to use, would be a slight understatement!!!! First some information on the little blighters!!!! >> Headlice come out of the air or from out of the ground. They are human parasites and have probably been here since the beginning of time and have even been found on the scalp and ... more

"ELIMINATES HEAD LICE AND THEIR EGGS" After years of teaching and watching these little creatures crawl about children's heads while they (the children), scratch uncontrollably, I am ever prepared for the onslaught of the head lice. With this in mind, my hair is always tied back and I try very hard not to go "head to head". My two boys managed to get them once each, probably because they had very short hair, but Little Miss has managed to get head lice within 3 months of being at school. Normal day, come home to see her writhing at her head and yes, there was the little army…small but ... more
