Hair dye and head lice

Many people believe that dying hair can get rid of head lice because of the chemicals used. This is a common misconception, since no liquid can kill the eggs! All it will do is tint the nit. The only way to treat a lice infestation is to receive our Headwinds heat treatment or have us manually comb out the nits, followed by application of our Treatment Goop to kill the bugs.

You can tell it's unhatched by the end cap and the dark nit growing inside.

The same nit under a microscope.

As you can see, nits are very small.

Tiny pink nit!
