How To Get Rid of Lice

Getting rid of head lice can seem daunting, but with the right approach, it can be done effectively. Here are proven steps to eliminate these pesky parasites:

  1. Diagnosis and Identification
  2. Before diving into treatment, ensure that you're dealing with head lice. Adult lice are small, wingless insects that are grayish-brown and move quickly. Nits (lice eggs) are tiny, oval, and firmly attached to hair shafts close to the scalp. A magnifying glass and fine-toothed comb can aid in detection.

  3. Use Jamie's Lice Angels' Natural Enzyme Treatment
  4. Stay away from the uncertainty of OTC treatments and instead opt for our all-natural enzyme spray. Crafted from natural ingredients, this spray works wonders by loosening the glue that keeps nits adhered to the hair, setting the stage for an easier and more effective removal.

  5. Complete Comb-Out for Nit Removal
  6. After allowing the enzyme treatment to sit for 20 minutes, meticulously comb through the hair using a fine-toothed Nit Terminator lice comb. This will effectively remove the loosened nits, ensuring a thorough cleansing of the scalp. As you work through the hair, you'll find that the nits slide off effortlessly, all thanks to our specialized formula.

  7. Apply Our Louse Oil for Final Protection
  8. For that added layer of assurance, finalize the treatment by applying our louse oil to the hair. This acts as a barrier, suffocating any potential live lice that might have eluded the combing process, ensuring that your hair remains lice-free.

  9. Clean Your Environment
  10. Lice can't survive long without human contact, but to be thorough:

    • Wash bed linens, stuffed animals, and clothing. Dry eveything on high heat
    • Vacuum carpets and upholstered furniture.
    • You can bag things up for 2 weeks if you are unsure
  11. Tell People In Your Circle.
  12. It is most likely that you got lice from someone you are close with. It is always suggested to tell every one you are close with so they can check their families and prevent you from getting it back from them.

  13. Regular Checks and Preventative Measures
  14. For the next 2-3 weeks, frequently check the infested person's hair for lice and nits. To prevent future infestations:

    • Avoid head-to-head contact.
    • Don't share items that touch the head like combs, hats, and headphones.
    • Teach children about the risks of sharing these items.
  15. Seek Professional Help
  16. If home treatments fail, or if you're unsure about the diagnosis, it might be time to seek assistance. The professionals at Jamie's Lice Angels, use specialized techniques and treatments that are often more effective than traditional over-the-counter solutions.

    Remember, having lice isn't a sign of poor hygiene or an unclean living environment. It's merely a part of life that affects many families. However, with diligence and the right approach, lice can be effectively treated and prevented.

The Common Missteps in At-Home Lice Treatments

  • User error: Not following directions properly.
  • Overuse: Lice have built up resistance to the pesticides.
  • Failure to remove all nits: Eggs hatch and the infestation starts over.

Over the years, head lice have evolved to become increasingly resilient to common over-the-counter treatments. This phenomenon, known as "resistance," occurs when a small population of lice survives after being exposed to treatments that once killed them. These survivors, possessing a genetic makeup that allows them to withstand the treatment, then reproduce. Over time, and with repeated exposure to the same treatments, a larger portion of the lice population inherits this resistance. As a result, many traditional treatments that were once effective now struggle to eradicate these "super lice," leading to increased infestations and frustrated individuals seeking solutions.

Why Our Approach is Different (and Effective)

We have discovered that the most effective approach for eliminating lice is to meticulously remove all live lice and eggs from the infected individual. However, the process of removing eggs from the hair shaft can be challenging. To address this, we utilize a non-toxic enzyme that effectively loosens the glue binding the eggs to the hair. This makes it significantly easier to comb out all the eggs and lice from the hair.

One of the key advantages of our method is that it eliminates the need for exposing the person being treated to insecticides, which are commonly used in other lice treatments. By avoiding the use of insecticides, we prioritize the well-being and safety of the individual undergoing treatment.

It is important to note that our method focuses the on thorough removal of lice and eggs, ensuring a comprehensive solution to the infestation. By adopting this approach, we prioritize both the effectiveness and the health of our clients.
