How to Remove Lice and Nits With a Fine-Tooth Comb

Transcript

If your child has head lice, watch this before trying anything else. This simple routine may help loosen lice and nits, making them easier to remove with a fine-tooth comb. Stay until the end to see what the comb catches. First add one teaspoon of table salt. It helps give the mixture a mild cleansing texture. Next add one teaspoon of baking soda. It can help with cleansing and removing buildup from the hair. Now add one teaspoon of shampoo. I'm using Dove shampoo, but use a shampoo that is suitable for your child's hair and scalp. Then add half a fresh lime and squeeze the juice into the mixture. Then add 50 milliliters of white vinegar. Now mix everything thoroughly until it becomes evenly combined. By the way, tell me your country or city in the comments. Transfer the mixture into a clean container so it's easier to apply. Now use a brush to distribute it through the hair. After trying this routine myself, here's my personal review. If you're dealing with head lice at home, this routine may help. Make the removal process easier and potentially save you from spending money on unnecessary treatments. Apply the mixture carefully to the hair. Leave it on only for the time recommended for the specific treatment you're using. Then wash the hair thoroughly with shampoo and use a fine-tooth comb to remove the lice and nits. Now tell me, and if you want more practical home and life hacks, follow me for more.
