Sklice Don't Bug Out Imagery
Live head lice and nits (eggs and shells) may be visible to the naked eye at the back of your child’s neck and/or behind their ears. Nits attach firmly to hair follicles within one fourth of an inch from the scalp.<strong>Step 1:</strong> Wet your child’s hair with water or oil. Head lice can move quickly and will avoid light; wet hair will slow them down.<strong>Step 2:</strong> After wetting, part your child’s hair into sections so that you can see their scalp clearly.<strong>Step 3:</strong> Use a magnifying glass and a light as you check your child’s hair and scalp, section by section. Nit combs aren’t required when treating head lice with Sklice Lotion, but a special nit comb is an effective searching tool.* <br/> *A fine-tooth comb or special nit comb may be used to remove dead lice and nits.<strong>Step 4:</strong> If you spot just one live louse, you have an infestation. Ask your doctor about Sklice Lotion, a head lice treatment that can treat the infestation.
