LICE TIPS

This woman with the long beautiful hair looks happy and even carefree. No way does she have lice, right? Not so fast. There are plenty of people out there with lice who have no idea that they have it.

Many people start out with the expectation that they will be able clean all of the lice out of their child's hair. After all, they reason, how difficult can it be?

How many times have you been told not to rely on the Internet when looking for diagnoses or solutions to medical issues. You probably have disregarded that advice (haven't we all?) and may have even scoured the Internet looking for advice on how to treat head lice; if you have done so then you know there is plenty of conflicting advice about lice.

To quote Mike Myers as Linda Richman, "Can we talk?" Let's be honest...no one wants to find lice in their hair. We really don't like to think about those yucky critters residing on our child's head! The fact is that lice are very common today and many people, including millions of school children, are diagnosed with it each year.

This, of course, is an important question when deciding how to tackle a lice infestation. In fact, Cleveland mom, Lindsey W., called us this morning with that very question. To make is simple, we have compiled a list for you:
