Reviews
Daughter brought lice from kindergarten. I noticed that she began to scratch her head often, and this is a clear lice symptomwhich, alas, was confirmed. Hair is medium length, but not thick. I am an opponent of all shampoos, because they contain insecticides, albeit in small quantities. The skin of children is too sensitive, often there is an allergy. Folk remedies also not credible. I decided to fight with a comb. I bought AntiV. Nothing special in it, but combing parasites well. Planted a girl, pre-processed hair acetic solution. Chesala about an hour, then my daughter began to spin, could not stand it. Found a few adults, not very many nits. Repeated every day, but for 20 minutes. Looking through the hair through a magnifying glass. So got rid without chemistry, did not have to change my hair.

Daughters was 13 years old when she began to complain about lice bites. Disposed of using hair dye based hydrogen peroxide. Nits combed her with a LiceGuard comb. Did not want to overpay for a regular comb. Completely arranged a set at a more affordable price.First used with short teeth. Then, for prophylaxis with long. I remember my mother as a child lice infused with dust soap, head scratching the usual comb with fine teeth.
