#12: Scared of battling lice and dealing with an itchy, irritated scalp?

Lice bites trigger inflammation and allergic reactions, causing persistent itching and discomfort.

Continuous scratching can lead to wounds, making your scalp prone to bacterial or fungal infections.

Lice lay eggs close to your hair roots, thereby weakening follicles and causing excessive hair breakage. 

Lice and nits trap dirt and dead skin, leading to dandruff and unpleasant scalp odour.

Frequent scratching and visible nits can make you self-conscious in public or social situations. 

Choose a gentle formula with natural ingredients like neem, tea tree, or camphor to eliminate lice without harming your scalp. 

Lightly massage with tea tree, eucalyptus or neem oil after blending with carrier oils — it suffocates lice and nourishes your scalp naturally. 

After each cleanse, apply a mild, nourishing mask to restore moisture and strengthen hair weakened by scratching and irritation. 

Use a fine-tooth lice comb on damp hair to remove eggs and prevent reinfestation. 

Wash hair regularly in every 2–3 days with lukewarm water to maintain scalp hygiene and prevent lice breeding. 

Don’t share combs, pillows, towels or hair accessories with others. 

Wash and sun-dry bed linens, scarves and clothes used during lice infestation to stop the spread.
