I know it helps us mothers to not cause so much pain to our child’s head, or at least that’s why I use oil. But it actually makes your job twice as hard. The oil makes it harder for the comb to pull the nits out. Just wanted to let you know in case you didn’t know.
This is a great video if someone wants to get rid of headlice without breaking the bank per say. So many people think they can buy the chemical kits from the store and use it and they no longer have lice and we know that is not what happens. It is work and time consuming and if you stick with it you can get rid of lice. I worked as a Cosmologist (hair dresser) for many years and I give you my stamp of approval :) Great job Mom!
It is a LOT of work! I had no idea is was so time consuming but we just didn’t have $200 to treat both of us at the time. I would have just shaved the boys heads, haha. Thank you.
Wow I put olive oil on just now for lice I didn’t know I’ve had for a week now. Omg I’m freaking out cause it’s infested bad. Like u can actually see it in the light without a magnifying glass. I’m so sad
My parents don’t know I have lice and I’ve had it for months now.. I’m too embarrassed to tell them and I’m in literal tears because I feel like I’ll never get it out
Don’t feel bad!! I’m so sorry, you’re probably miserable. You got them from someone else. They love clean hair so that’s usually why they are attracted to a new head. The sooner you tell them, the better you will feel. It’s NOT your fault! I know it’s scary but the sooner you tell them, they better YOU will feel.
Does the heat from the hair straightener kill the nits & does the olive oil suffocate & kill the lice? Also how long should I keep tea tree oil in my daughters hair without irritation?
The olive oil will help keep the hair dirty and help the nits pull out better. I used all kinds of heat as long as my daughter could tolerate it. The straightener definitely helps. Combine the olive oil and tea tree so it doesn’t irritate the scalp. Let me know if you have more questions.
what if i used a metal comb and the detangling spray too to comb them out after the the RID and after that I used so much conditioner on my hair, comb it, wash it then used normal shampoo too lol i only did this once and i dont see any other eggs so is it entirely gone?
just found out I had lice, now I'm scavenging the internet for help. It sucks too, because I'm a minor and I have to wait till I'm able to go out with an adult and get the proper tools. Life is g r e a t : )
Do your best to keep your hair oily. They don’t like dirty hair. Keep it up and away from others. The hardest part is getting rid of the bits (the white things). Have someone help you go through each piece of your hair to pull them out. It’s tedious but it’s necessary. Good luck. Hope that helped.
I’m not sure why, but it appears my comment was deleted. When a child reaches and says they’re embarrassed about having lice and can’t tell their parents, my response under the creator’s response was the same that it’s not their fault and I only added that they should ask someone they trust to help them since having lice for months is traumatic in itself not to mention the scratching can lead to infection. 🤷🏼♀️
So am I supposed to check for nits and lice before I put the olive oil and tea tree oil in her hair and her hair is supposed to be dried while checking before putting the oils correct
I had a SUPER hard time getting rid of them. The process is very tedious but getting into the hair with a very fine tooth comb is necessary. Putting oil helps to loosen up the nits on the hair. Also applying heat helped us. Honestly if I had the money, I would have had it done professionally. Hopefully that helped.
mayonnaise kills all the bugs but not the egss you have to comb out the eggs but its the best thing i have ever used leave mayonnaise on the hair overnight with a cap.
My mom used acholo and vinegar like a bunch of times and it worked but like u gotta do it until like u see no eggs or lice and this is my second time getting lice..
I’m so sorry you’re going through that. Make sure it’s lice and not just dandruff. If you can shake it out, it’s not lice. Otherwise find someone you trust and ask them to help you tell your parents. I know it’s not a fun situation. ❤️
I don't understand why you do so many steps. If the veg oil and tea tree oil kill them all why do you then go. Thru combing them all out, then using flat iron, then whats the braiding supposed to do?
The braiding, for us, was keeping anything that might have been alive from getting onto anyone else. As long as she wasn’t touching anyone with her hair, she was ok but I had to do my job to keep them from spreading. The flat iron was just extra precaution. Heat kills them so after so many steps, I wanted to add one more. They are TOUGH to get rid of. At least in our case. Hope that answered your questions 😊.

You're a nice mommy she's a lucky daughter ;)
I slept over at my cousins house for three days and I came back with lice
That is so cool !!! ❤️❤️ it’s Bili my daughter had lice and the heat kills it !!❤️❤️
It was awful but I’m glad I learned these tricks.

Thank you!! My 9 year old went for a sleepover this weekend and came home with head lice. We are freaking out. She’s never had it before! Ugh.
Glad I could help. I was so upset but this method truly worked.
Thanks for helpful tips

Just be careful and go through the hair several times a day. They are sometimes hard to find. Maybe you only had a mild case which would be great ❤️.
Good video worked for me none of the treatments you buy from the store work
I really like ur guys videos
Thank you. I appreciate your feedback.

Well nice to know I have lice now
I’m so sorry. It’s rough.
Hi, great video

I’m so sorry, I don’t know what happened to your comment. This is the first time I have seen it. Yes, a support system is a good thing to have.
So am I supposed to check for nits and lice before I put the olive oil and tea tree oil in her hair and her hair is supposed to be dried while checking before putting the oils correct
Yes check to see if you see any white pieces that don’t flick off. If they are stuck, it’s most likely lice. Then apply the oil and tea tree.
my cousin has a lot of lice like the tiny eggs and my aunt out like lice shampoo and so much stuff and nothing has worked. any ideas?
I had a SUPER hard time getting rid of them. The process is very tedious but getting into the hair with a very fine tooth comb is necessary. Putting oil helps to loosen up the nits on the hair. Also applying heat helped us. Honestly if I had the money, I would have had it done professionally. Hopefully that helped.
Yeah I want to know that works for your hair
This is a good video I will try it for my nits hopefully I do it right 🤞🤞
For how long u kept the oil applied?
Usually overnight but it depends on where you are in treatment.
Are lice visible on wet towels when you dry hair?
I don’t think so. They are really small.
Where do you get the tea tree thing
I use young living tea tree oil. There is a link to my website in my newer videos.
What about BABY OIL? Who has tried?
mayonnaise kills all the bugs but not the egss you have to comb out the eggs but its the best thing i have ever used leave mayonnaise on the hair overnight with a cap.
Does it smell bad after using mayonnaise? Sounds like it would work, but also sounds nasty, lol.
Did you use vegetable oil.?
Yes it was the cheapest oil to use since I use a lot of it.
My daughter has lice and her nits are brown.
I’ve never seen brown nits. That’s wild.
You use Oil And what else ?
Marleny Sotelo tea tree oil
Any tips on killing the nits?
Heat is the best source to kill the nits.
What about avocado oil?
I’m sure any kitchen oil would work, what I used was just the cheapest option for us.
My mom used acholo and vinegar like a bunch of times and it worked but like u gotta do it until like u see no eggs or lice and this is my second time getting lice..
Yes they are VERY difficult to get rid of.
I think I have lice cause I just looked at my hair and there white eggs in it I’m scared to tell my parents
I’m so sorry you’re going through that. Make sure it’s lice and not just dandruff. If you can shake it out, it’s not lice. Otherwise find someone you trust and ask them to help you tell your parents. I know it’s not a fun situation. ❤️
Could I use coconut oil?
Of course, I just used vegetable oils because it’s the cheapest.

Mayonnaise works very good.
Yes, I just didn’t want to use it because I was afraid of the smell, lol.
What about permed hair im a guy i have long permed hair and some girl gave me lice and now i don't know how to get it out
It would be best if you could straighten it first.
Hey so my niece has lice and nits but its not that much and she has financial problems
What is the easiest way I can help her
This is the easiest way. Oil on her hair, comb the nits out and wash the next day.
Even if I brush my hair carefully and use the small metal brush my hair breaks the bush
I’m sorry I can’t help any further. You may need to find a video or research on your hair type. Wishing you luck.
Can hair strighter get rid off nites ?
It won’t get rid of them but it can help kill them. They still need to be removed with your fingers.
Do you have to repeat this method for a week?
Honestly I repeat it until I know they are gone.
Honestly I repeat it until I know they are gone.
Don't forget to soak your combs and brushes in bleachy water
Really good point! I soaked ours in alcohol.
They do not work all the lice shampoos I’ve tried don’t work 😠
I had the same issue. They smelled awful and didn’t work. That’s why I prefer a natural method.
cute!
