So, Have You Had Lice Yet?

I have never had lice. I can remember childhood checks in the nurse’s office when an outbreak would start, and I’m sure my mother had a huge sign of relief every time us kids came home clean. Now that Jonas is in school, we’ve already had two lice breakouts. Lice has always freaked me out a bit because, well, EW BUGS, but also because most of the treatments out there either don’t have very good reviews when it comes to being effective, or the treatment is so chemical laden I really don’t want my children or myself near it! I’ve heard of some parents who are so desperateto get rid of the lice they wash children’s hair in gasoline! I’ve seen a few kids at Jonas’ school arrive with freshly shaved heads too.

I was recently asked to share a blog post on this new treatment that is out for lice called LiceMD. Now, they gave me a sample, and I cannot tell you how perfectly it works because THANK HEAVEN WE DON’T HAVE LICE, but I am hearing very, very positive things about it actually working. I am also really liking it because it is pesticide free, odorless, you can reapply it as often as you need to, and it conditions the hair while killing lice in ten minutes. Compared to the current brands, that is all very happy news indeed.

  1. Thank goodness I have never had to deal with lice. When my kids came home with the notes about it going around I would FREAK but they never got it. I know some parents here were slathering their kids hair in mayo. because the box stuff wasn’t killing them.
