First of all, if you think you or your child has been exposed to head lice, and is showing any symptoms, like itchy scalp or red bite marks, you can get a lice head check from your doctor or professionally trained lice removal service provider, such as Heartland Healthy Heads. You can also use specially formulated shampoo, conditioner, and hair spray products as a preventative measure. I prefer to use safe, non-toxic personal care products and the good news is that there are natural products on the market.
I think it is a great idea for every family to have a lice preparedness kit in their home. We have a great giveaway for the ultimate lice prevention kit from our sponsor Heartland Healthy Heads. This package is valued at over $180! Here is what one Macaroni Kid JoCo reader will win:
