Listerine! Simple as that. The brown stuff. Put on dry hair saturate and let sit for 10 min. Rinse and comb through with a lice comb.
I was 16 and baby sat after school. Found out the hard way that the kids had lice. I have VERY thick and long hair. We tried everything. My parents most have spent at least $200 on the RID and NEX stuff. They even brought me down to the health department. We tried pure alcohol, flee shampoo,… You name it we tried it. I cant tell you how many night I lost sleep b/c I itched so bad. And to be in school trying not to scratch was SO hard. I battled these things for well over 6 months. Even had my head bleached 2 times in one day (unrelated to tiring to remove the lice) and they still lived. Then one day my dad comes home from work with 4 large bottles of Original Listerine. Some guy he worked with told him to try it. So me and my mom when in to the bathroom. I hung my head over the tub and she proceeded to poor two of the bottles onto my head. The rest is history. I never again after that night had any more issues. I hope this helps. It was a life saver for me!
Would the off brand ie: Equate from Walmart; of listerine work?
