Expert / 4 September, 2024 / My Baba
With Easter over and children back at school, there is one thing that parents are really not looking forward to, and that’s battling head lice. But there is no need to pull your hair out (or more to the point your children’s hair out), as we sit down with one of the mums behind award-winning head lice brand Nitty Gritty to get the low down on ‘beating the bugs’.
First things first, if your child comes home with head lice it’s really important to know that there is nothing to feel ashamed or embarrassed about. Almost all children will experience head lice at one point or another during their school years, and it really doesn’t have to be too much of an ordeal to get rid of them. Our award-winning comb has helped everyone from A-list celebrities to Royalty finally free their families from head lice.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW…
What are head lice?
Head lice are small, wingless, greyish-white insects (they turn a darker grey after they have fed on blood) with flattened, elongated bodies with oval heads. They are about 2-3mm and live on the scalp.
Where can head lice be found?
Head lice spend their lifespan in our hair, clinging tightly onto it as soon as they emerge from their eggs. They tend to stay very close to our scalps in order to feed directly from our blood. They often lay their eggs near the temples, behind the ears or at the nape of the neck where it is nice and warm.
