Probably because the parents tried to get rid of them so they probably got rid of a bunch enough to not cause redness like some others ive seen where its so bad the scalp is red
Um yeah.. there is. And it’s really sad tbh. I wouldn’t be laughing at it. You never know what vulnerable kids or adults are reading the comments of videos like this.
When I was about 12, I was in class bored and decided I was going to style all of my classmates hairs with my brush; I did about 7 girls’ hair. BIG MISTAKE. My scalp was very infected, it was awful. Sadly I come from a 3rd world country that has nothing, but luckily my mom came up with the idea of dying my hair, surprisingly after only one time, it killed them all (I’m even getting itchy telling this story) I feel for this little girl; thankfully there is people here like you that are able to help her. After I dyed my hair, it never grew back as healthy as it used to be.
It’s not just in her hair… but in the car, bedding, sofa, carpet, pillowcases, EVERYTHING! So you may use medicated shampoo, but you have to do the entire house!!
@@preciousveil3122 actually I couldn't get rid of it once and was told to wash everything in really hot water clothes and bedding and vacuum really good and then finally after about 4 weeks I got rid of it true story
There’s so much more than just getting products from the store. Couches, mattresses, stuffed animals, linens, EVERYTHING needs to be washed, sanitized and heat treated. If all you do is shampoo or foam, they will never go away.
… the car, combs, siblings should be treated, sometimes the parents, too. I’ve been a hairstylist nearly 30 years. It’s a pain in the butt and not cheap to treat, but you’re right. EVERYTHING has to be treated or it’s a never ending cycle.
Lice are parasitic they can not live for long away from a host aka mammal. In 24 hours with nothing to feed on they're dead. No need to throw things away.
Mix one part dish soap with one part vinegar then shampoo the hair every day for 10 days to 2 weeks. It kills adult lice on contact but not the eggs thus the reason for daily washes until you stop the egg cycle. To kill off any in carpet mix Simple Green 50/50 with vinegar. Wash and change bedding daily. No hats, no hoodies. I did this when everything else we tried had failed. My son hated it but after 10 days they were finally done. It was hard work but so worth it.
I would recommend buying this comb. It is amazing. I have three daughters and when they are at the prime age of when kids get lice. I comb through their hair regularly just to be on the safe side. They all have thick long hair. This comb has saved us so much time and it’s not that expensive.
ah I remember when my mum couldn’t get rid of the lice from my sisters’ and my hair and we were all struggling for what felt like eternity. I kept seeing stories saying it’ll end one day but it felt hopeless, it was just never ending lice. I don’t remember how it finally went away, but I was so thankful. I would never wish this on anyone and my sympathy goes out to anyone struggling with a situation like this!
Yup. My four siblings and I had it. It was awful. I think I had it for the entirety of middle school. We did the combs, the shampoos, etc but seven people in a three bedroom meant we were just passing it to each other. They eventually just disappeared. Haven’t had it since and thank god. I also don’t have any kids so I can be confident I won’t have to deal with that again.
I had it too but when my mom was around she took an entire afternoon to just use the meds to kill the lice and pick apart the eggs and killing it. When my mom left and i got lice again yea i coulndt take it and just shaved my head lmfao. Thank god for the pandemics
I had lice on and off growing up so I feel these kids pain 😭 bad enough I had those itches but I was also bullied for it too. Thanks for helping these kids out, you might not know this but you are a hero.
When it happened to my kids, I used Vaseline and combed it in ,then put a plastic bag or cap over the hair, the eggs can't hatch and it smothers the lice👍I would keep it on till the next day.No super lice story, no terrible chemicals,no more lice! No haircuts either!!
go get a flea treatment for ya hair i do it to my kids coke and plastic bag over there head change beds and everything flea bomb my house carpet powder to vaccume i dont even think they did anything to her hair cut the hair short is well and everyday put some oil in the hair nits cant land on the hair cause its oily
I had lice twice in my 14 years of existence and let me tell you, it’s so relaxing for someone to go through your hair and pick out the lice eggs and bugs. My grandma did it both times for me and got every little thing out no matter how long it took. Gotta love grandma and her commitment
My grandma did it for me too when I was younger and sometimes it was annoying af tho🥲. My grandma was gentle, my mom and aunt would yeet my damn hair back😭💀
1. Teatree oil 2. Find a color dye that matches her hair... dye her hair... 3. Use a hair streightner and slowely streighten every strand... you will hear the eggs pop and burn... Continue using teetree oil everyday.
Dude texas has a PROBLEM with lice. They think its normal to get lice regularly here. Its insane. Texans are disgusting and I cannot wait to leave in 10 days. Never take a job here no matter how tempting the pay.
When I was a little kid, I had nits (lice eggs) and loved it when my mum would go through my hair. I’d put my head on a towel and I found it so relaxing. She’d put them on the corner of the sink and I’d pop them all with my thumb nail. Now I’m older, the thought of doing that makes me want to puke.
Sounds like you're lucky to have such a loving and caring mother, one who not just took the time to nurture you but enjoyed it as well. 💕 It is sad to see many parents just cut or shave the hair because they're lazy and don't care. Very sad. But yes, I too have found memories of my mom doing my hair.. even the time I had bugs! Lol. ✌😘
As someone with a lot of very thick curly hair who had lice like 2 times in my life, my mom would spend over 10 hours with a tiny comb in my hair and it was so painfull yet it's so great when they're gone
My mom would go through my hair until they were gone. She was so thorough and washed everything. I hated having to sit there and complained but growing up I realize the last thing she wanted to do was sit and get lice out of my hair. But she still did.
Yesus...my dad combed out my hair...and I have NEVER forgotten it. It was the worst pain to my tender scalp ever. I have curly Filipina/Irish curls from mixed ancestry. I was sat down with a danged near dry head...my mid-back length curls WHEN DRY was the most painful experience. My dad kept saying things like, "How did this section, knot into THIS uncombed section after I just combed it?!?" Also, it called for combing from the scalp down. It took 4 hours while I sat on newspaper in the middle of the dining table and just silently bawled, trying my best to hide it from my poor daddy. It was my wild hair's fault that my head hurt...my poor dad, he looked awful after hours of silent weeping. He wasn't aware of just HOW tender my scalp was. He thought my mom and sister and grandma were all teasing about my head...nope. I remember a CLUMP of dry hair ripping out.
I've never had lice thankfully but I've been checked so many times during school years because I have eczema and my parents never really bothered to do much beyond get a cream that sooths a break out, so there were no prevention measures, and shampoo and conditioner of certain types were a problem but if it was on sale "deal with it" they had four kids and weren't gonna extra stuff for just one kid. So my scalp often itched and you know that always set off the occasional lice check from teachers. My brothers even got lice, but I didn't, it was so strange. I'm thankful though, on top of extra itching I don't think I could have mentally handled the bugs.
My mom did all that sometimes its the classroom the teacher and the kid that gave it to them in the first place because some parents jusy dont care or others can't offered to miss work so it never end. I see it more in elementary kids.
You know that comb felt so good on her itchy little scalp. You’re doing such a wonderful work for these people. I couldn’t do it so I’m really glad there are people like you who can.
I used to be a stylist and I'd get super itchy everytime someone would come in with Lice especially if it was level 10.!! What used to really get me😮 mad was teenagers with long thick hair coming in for a cut and they knew they had an infestation but never said a word then you'd be half way through a cut and see them and discreetly telling them and they already knew!!!!!@@ AaaaRrrrrhhhg😮😮😮😮 This is disgusting not to tell your stylist as they are so contageous so you'd have to then steralise your equipment and all the towels and capes etc FFS PEOPLE THATS NOT COOL!😢
I had lice for 2 years when I was nine after going to camp for the first time. Bless your work, sometimes it’s SO HARD to get them all.. especially when you have thick hair as a child
You're doing such a great job giving relief to the sweet child. As an adult I can confirm the lice irritated me a lot and it was hell lot embarrassing scratching your hair and finding a lice just at the point. 😢😢 This is such a great job indeed ❤❤
Dang you KNOW it's bad when there is a market enough for head lice that you can create a business out of it 🤢 that poor baby. I'm glad she got the help she needed.
Yes there is always an open ad where I live for lice house cleaning services. It pays $30 an hour minimum 3 hours pay. Can't bring myself to do it. Ahhh my head is crawling. This poor baby she had to be so miserable.
Yes it's bad down south. I grew up in Florida and we literally had head lice season where flyers would go home from school with safety tips and a nurse would ✔ u otw in every day
bro.. this reminds me of a time where i found out i had lice, in the middle of math class. I'll give a shorter version of the story for the people who don't want to read a long, detailed one. Here it is: I was in 4th grade, math class when I scratched my hair - looked at my hands, and found a bug on it. Freaked out, screamed like hell, ran to the bathroom and washed my hands. After getting back home i told my mom, we quickly rushed to the pharmacy and bought a special lice shampoo. Truly a scary experience. Here's the longer, detailed version of the story: I, was always really afraid of really any type of bug. I would even scream and freak out if I saw an ant near me. Still am, and still do yo this day. Except now, I die silently on the inside instead of screaming on the outside. Skipping forward to 4th grade, elementary school, math class. I was feeling very itchy and couldnt stop scratching my head - but at that time I knew NOTHING of lice. I didn't know there was a type of bug that goes into your hair like that. So, I thought it was probably because I didn't take a shower in a while. I scratched my head, feeling comforted after that scratch. Until I looked at my hands, and saw LICE on my hands. As you would guess, I ABSOLUTELY FREAKED OUT. I literally kicked my chair back, screamed, told the teacher "AASGDHHDFB GET IT AWAY FROM ME!!!". My poor math teacher was trying to figure out why the hell I was screaming. I OPENED the door and ran all the way to the bathroom WHICH BY THE WAY was nowhere near my class. I then washed my hands as good as i could and I remember checking myself everywhere to make sure there wasnt any other bug on me - not knowing that the 'bug' (aka lice) came from my HAIR. after I got back home, I told my mom everything, describing the lice as a 'bug'. And when she told me to repeat the story, I said again, "I scratched my head, then I found a bug on my finger." She then quickly came over to me and checked my hair, and there it was. Lice. We quickly drove to our local pharmacy to buy lice shampoo, lice formula, and a special comb (just like the one they used in the video). I remember I wouldn't even want to TOUCH my hair. The thought of small tiny creatures crawling my hair was enough to make me freak out. And also, to all of those people wondering "oh wow, this person really has some extra time to write entirely 2 versions of the story" it's 3 am in the morning, got nothing to do. thats why. lol. enjoy the rest of ur day ok bye now
We had 3 girls in foster care and they all had level 10 lice. My mom freaked out but didnt let them know. They were super sweet girls i wish thier father cared for them more
This gurl I went to middle school with had 3 inch long real hair corn rowed with 3 foot braided weave. Man, her friends called me over freaking out that she had baby spiders in her hair, she was trying to hit them out of her hair, bugs were falling everywhere. I was like, "Shit, those aren't spiders, that's lice." They all got offended and started yelling at me that "blk people can't get lice!!!". The teacher went to check it out (she didn't believe me) 5 second later she was yelling, you need to go home now, you have lice. The classroom had to be cleaned. She ended up getting rid of the braids and just staying natural. But because she had knocked lice all over the place, other kids got lice later. Everyone had to get their hair checked repeatedly. Our school was over 70% blk, everyone on that side of the room that got lice from her were blk girls with long hair extensions. So the type of hair doesn't matter. The length of it does. If you have long hair, your hair touches chairs and desks. The lice climb up it. Because lice don't care what hair they get in, that is why schools do not allow any children to share headphones anymore. LoL
When i was about age 6 to 12 i grew up with 4 siblings and after we all got it, it took over. I couldnt go to school or get my hair trimmed without being shamed and sent home. My mom at the time had so much on her plate but wish she didnt have to make us go through that. I love seeing grown woman support and help get rid of lice because those who had it severely know it makes you want to hide into a shell. And no child should have to go through that.
It's sad that any kid is teased or stigmatized for something so common. Lice like a clean head, so it's not because of a lack of hygiene. In fact the only way we finally rid my daughter's of it was by using tons of hair gel and hairspray and by not washing their hair as often. My oldest had lice 12 times with long golden locks that went past her butt. I refused to cut her hair and spent countless hours with her laying on my lap picking nits. My grandma used to say, "there is no shame in getting lice, just a shame to keep them." Anyone can get them (Kings and Queens were lousy.
I had them so often as teen around 14 that I still have an anxious tic where I run my fingers in a massaging motion through my hair without even thinking about it. I had them 4 times back to back. We tried everything to get rid of them. I even got them once as an adult and had tried everything to get them to go. We had to put minced garlic in my hair and they finally left me alone but my hair smelt like garlic for a month no matter how much I washed it. Even after apple cider vinegar rinses. Lice can be traumatizing for some people. Sweet little baby. I hope she never has to deal with them again.
@Spookyghostkitten1031 for future reference, try a parsley mask and cover your hair and scalp with it for like 30 min to an hr and wash it out with a clarifying shampoo (preferably mint scented or put peppermint essential oil drops in it). It may cancel out the Sulphur in the garlic (the "volatiles") because consuming parsley cures the garlic breath smell after eating a ton of garlic. And peppermint also effects it as well.
@@briathomas5310 Thank you so much for sharing this with me. I didn't even think about that. I was so happy the lice were gone that I didn't even think about other ways to fix it. I just gave up getting the smell out because I was so glad they were gone. Hopefully I won't need this information in the future but it's good to know for my kids. Thank you again. 😊
This is so amazing that y’all do this ❤ last time I got it boxes was not getting rid of it I even got a abscess that made my face drop I was so thankful when the doctor helped this I wish that no kids could get this. Y’all are so wonderful for helping her
My sister never dealt with her son's lice, she didn't like seeing him cry. After leaving him at my mother's for the upteenth time, I grabbed that kid and shaved his head. She never said a word! His father did, I just reminded him he was an adult version of his son. I love that kid, he knows it and was happy his nits were gone. Shit like this happens because some parents are lazy. ☹️
When i was younger,mom didn't care about my lice,not just mine but my siblings too, everyone was infected including her,i was embarrassed at school,i always smelled bad,i lost friends,no one was my friend,they knew. They got so much to the point (at home "treatments") that she used BLEACH LITERAL CLEANING BLEACH in our hair and it damaged it BADLY. I've gotten infected 3 times in my life,the other 2 times were from her other kids (my half siblings) and they also had A HUGE infestation problem. We were visiting her and I almost threw up because you could see them all,the kids smelled awful and it's not their fault,it's hers. When we confronted her she just said "it's okay it's a family thing". She's extremely toxic, she doesn't care,it's abuse,i literally hated myself when I was a kid because I felt disgusting,i was never clean, I'll never forgive her for letting this happen, when my siblings found out that we got infested again they just were considering shaving our heads. Thankfully it was not a major problem and we got rid of them quickly.
@@balls4582 Sorry that happened to you. Lazy parents hate cleaning anything! With some it's mental illness, others have an abiding hatred of cleaning and have no cares it's affecting everyone in their orbit ☹️
As a stylist I can say you guys are absolute saints!! I feel so bad when I have to tell a child and parent I can’t do the hair they were looking forward to getting due to lice!! I wish we had a place like this closer to where I’m at!!
I feel so bad. Watching this video I can feel them crawling in my head. I used to have a level 10 case of lice when I was little too and my parents tried absolutely everything and nothing worked. So they took me to get it professionally done and oh my god the feeling of even one sweep with that comb through the hair felt sooooooo good. I’m so glad you guys were able to help. I know she will feel sooo amazing after! God bless y’all.
I can imagine the hard time this kid is experiencing. I got lice from elementary to secondary, it's itchy that i wanna shave my hair. Good thing it got lessen when I'm in college then suddenly, it's gone
How did you have it for so long? We’re you cleaning your home thoroughly? Including all clothing and bedding. As a parent of three girls I became super diligent to make sure it was gone and didn’t come back. Did your parents not help you? I’m sorry you had to deal w that for so long as a child. That’s not fair
My mom solved me and my sister lice problem by matching our natural hair color with a hair dye and literally trashing everything she could. Bedding,towels,hair brushes etc. I remember she spent a full year obsessing over the cleaning and our scalp. God bless every momma for dealing with every type of issue
I have always used hair die to get ride of it the cheapest one has always worked best! Had a friend her grand had it and they had done everything they even went to a shop but she had the thickest hair I've ever seen ! I had to talk her into doing it but when we washed her hair out you could see the bugs just washing down the drain !
Poor baby ❤ she has beautiful hair. Children shouldnt have to go through this. You dont know your classmates homes lives til you grow up and figure it out. Makes me want to go back to school and hug those kids i knew
EVERYONE LISTEN. Shampoo hair and dowse the head with pure tea tree oil, wrap in a towel and let it sit for 30 mins. This catches the blitters and poisons them because pure tea tree stinks and unholy amount. If you have thick dark hair they will target you because it’s easier to hide. Once you’ve done this wash bedding and get new pillows. I used to get nits every feb no question when I was younger having thick brown hair was a breeding ground. Hope this helps!!! Edit- I forgot to say comb the hair with a nit comb and when you find no more nits completely wash the hair. It’s good to do all the kids in the house to be sure.
Brings back flashbacks to when I was 13 and had a horrific lice infestation for months! Like her parents,mine tried everything too. My mom sat on the floor and went over my hair for hours as I cried. We cleaned the house like crazy,did all the shampoos and treatments and nothing was working! I honestly thought I was gonna have to shave my head as a sobbed about it daily. Nobody else in the family got it and we to this day don't know where I got it from. We finally started doing home remedies as we had nothing to lose. Whatever we did,I can't remember what exactly, in combination with what we had been doing finally worked! But it was probably a 4-6 month process. Wishing this doll all the best!
Me and my sister would both get lice bad.. the treatments would work but then we'd get them again a week later.... finally my mom said screw it and dyed our hair... only had lice again 2 years later and one round of dye it was gone
Had a similar situation!! Had to chop my hair and all my step mom did was use conditioner. She would put it in my hair and comb everything out everyday. We put all the blankets, stuffed animals, etc in the drier so we fried them. It worked thank god. We cleaned everyday til the house was lice free but all we did was use conditioner and a lice comb really
As an African American I never understood lice but this video helped. My son has ringworm in his head for almost 2 YEARS! very traumatic for him. We tried everything
God bless her. To be patient to sit there for all those treatments and she has a good amount of hair. Lice is like fleas… takes forever and a day to get rid of. Hopefully this did the trick for her.
Lice is about 10X harder to get rid of than fleas. Lice are 100% resistant to pesticides. That means that you have to kill them manually. And if you miss one little egg it starts all over again. If you miss throwing one item in the wash machine, it starts all over again. It was traumatic to me as a child. I thought my parents hated me because of it. It still bothers me a lot when i see things like this
Ty for helping kids with this issue. Ty for normalizing it for them. Everyone gets lice once.. I got it from my niece who got it from school... It's nothing to be ashamed of.
@@ell2432 not really? Honestly anyone can catch lice. Even Madonna’s kids caught lice? SERIOUSLY, LICE DOSEN’T DISCRIMINATE! Lice has no clue if your rich or poor? LICE ONLY CARES IF YOU HAVE BLOOD PUMPING THROUGH YOUR VEINS 🩸 So for that fact, NOBODY should be ASHAMED of catching lice! Because even you my FRIEND COULD EASILY CATCH LICE TOO! Unless your not Human? The SHAME comes from DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT!! IGNORING IT and PASSING IT TO OTHERS? Sadly, IGNORANCE is BLISS though?
Like this mom let her daughter? Lmao people are disgusting for letting it get this bad. I check my daughters hair as soon as I see her randomly scratching. She’s never had lice.
@@kimmyymmik bro? She literally said she tried everything over the counter and it didn't work for her daughters hair and if you scroll through the comments theres similar stories.. Get some better morals and learn how to engage in different perspectives before commenting farts out of your keyboard
As a 2nd grader (I am an adult now) I had lice myself but my sister had it bad. It was nasty and I don't think I could have long hair like I did when I was 8. So glad this place is there for those kiddos
PARENTS-- you HAVE TO de-louse your kids hair MANUALLY, with nit combs and plenty of time & patience, in conjunction with topical lice treatments. You cannot just slap on some treatment shampoo & be done with it. Nit comb thru hair several times a week. You can smother the hair with just regular conditioner to do this process as you probably don't want to use the harsh chemicals in lice treatments on a daily basis (even drenching the hair with plain cooking oil works a treat, it's cheap and safe on skin. the oil practically drowns the lice and makes lice & eggs slide out easily without causing irritation from chemicals). And even after no signs of lice you still need to check hair regularly, even daily whenever doing your kids hair, you can quickly check the hotspots that lice first lay eggs which are the hair right around the ears, the nape/ back of the neck, and the hairline around the forehead. It only takes 1 egg to hatch 1 louse that will lay dozens of eggs a day and the whole dang cycle repeats.
Right towards the end of kindergarten everyone in my house got lice and my mom was combing through 5 heads of hair and nuking everyone's scalps with a hairdryer. Because I have a sensitive scalp (undiagnosed seborrheic dermatitis at the time) I absolutely *hated* this and was the most troublesome to deal with, so my mom just buzzed my hair and made it easier. Definitely cut down the lice on me and helped my mom, but it took years to grow out and I still hate hairdryers with a passion.
I got lice SO FAST in just one night of being at my friends house when I was a kid (now that I'm older I can see and say she was horribly neglected food and hygiene wise) and after I did treatment my hair was so smooth and shiny. I felt so much better but so scared of if I spread it.... Thank god I only had it once
Can you tell what you did for your hair after you got rid of them. (Because i had em too, but after so much of effort i got rid of them, but my hair went soo dry and frizzy after that) because i struggled a lot and tried everything possible for getting rid of them. It would be a great help if you suggest me anything.
I had lice from 7th grade to 9th grade all because my mother refused to change the bedsheets after my cousin who unknowingly had lice in her hair came over for a sleep over. We tried everything to get them out of my hair until the hospital had to do something because my scalp was irritated to the point i was bleeding from scratching. I always felt so akward having to turn down hanging out with my friend or having sleepovers cause i never eanted to cause something like that. Its so nice to see people doing stuff like this! I bet that little girl was so happy!! Bless you all! ❤️❤️❤️
@@asxtro7145 False. We can still get lice but are less likely because of the amount of products we tend to use to keep our hair moisturized. It is a myth that we have special oils or that the texture of our hair prevents lice. Now you know!
My mum combed my hair every evening and when she found anything, my hair was then doused in conditioner, because it suffocated the lice, and combed through again. Simple but very effective.
My oldest had this issue in 3rd grade. I finally started washing her hair with dog shampoo every day for 2 weeks. Then maintained with Head and Shoulders every other hair washing.
I suffered with lice as a kid from a school that was neglecting the sanitary policies and not sending infected kids home to get properly treated, and that caused a full on outbreak throughout the whole school- and when I got lice, My father would sit down for hours- combing my hair everyday, getting every nit and egg he could see and he would usually get it all for me me after a few days of constant treatment, while also keeping all my bedding and clothing bagged up on the porch- (depending on how bad it was.) but the school was so infested I ended up catching it 8 or 9 whole times in 1 year and that’s when my parents decided to notify the school board- nothing really happened- so then my parents decided to actually go on a local radio station to talk about the schools neglect regarding the whole situation and that’s when the school FINALLY listened and changed their ways, but so many kids I knew were suffering just as bad as I was. It was tragic. Lice is absolutely horrible for any child to go through😢
I didn't know about lice until I was bused to a predominantly white school in 5th grade back in 1972. We had our hair hot combed every Sunday morning and Mum put grease in every Wednesday morning before school. Some of my white friends Mum's started put oil in their kids hair after I went to sleepovers at their homes and saw me putting grease in my hair after washing and drying my hair.
I went to a school with ppl with that type of hair and I still never saw them with lice. I'm a 4c hair type so even if they had it, I wouldn't know. Thank Goood my coils saved me.
I hope you informed the parents that she will get reinfected if they don't clean EVERYTHING in their home. Wash all bedding, treat furniture/carpeting, wash all necessary clothing and bag up the rest.
Yup bag all stuffed animals that can not be washed for 2 weeks. Lice die after a week if they can't eat. Also after you kill the lice, I'd you can't get the eggs(nits) out hair die works great. The die swells the hair shaft break the glue the lice uses to make the egg stick. Egg comes right off.
They are running a professional business for lice removal and yet here you are acting like you somehow know more. "I hope you told them..."🙄 Of course they told them that they obviously need to go home and clean everything. Seriously...
It really is a nightmare. Just like some of the people that have posted, you can get it from anyone, anywhere, at any time. The hard work isn't so much in combing the lice out of the hair, (although that is quite a job in itself for both the parent and the child), it's the many, many, many, many hours, days, and weeks of continued washing of all of the beds, linens, towels, couch cushions, stuffed animals, car seats, bike helmets, and the list goes on. It's something that has to be done daily and until the lice are gone, (usually for some time after you see the last bug you have to continue with the cleaning process because there could be eggs that haven't asked yet), it is not a job for the weak that is for sure! 💪😭🥺😵💫😫😱😢🤦🏼♀️🪳
I remember when i got lice for the first time i was in 2nd grade and i was minding my business eating lunch but my lunch lady contacted my mom bc she noticed after a week how i would consistently scratch my head. My mom picked me up immediately and had no idea what to do. She got me wendys and we went home. She was more terrified then me and i was reLly scared. She called my grandma not knowing what to do. After we went and bought the special spray thing and comb. I sat for hours in the tub while my mom was taking the eggs and lice out of my hair it itched so bad and was so uncomfortable.I had to go to sleep with a hair cap on so it would get my bed dirty and it would get suffocated. That just mad it itch even more and made my head hot. Anytime i think of it i get really itchy and it freaks me out. Eventually we went to my grandmas house and she tried to help. Then the second time i got it, it was bc my sister had it. I was traumatized from the first time around and just thinking i had to go through that again.... that was a nightmare. She blamed it on me bc she was so mad that she had it and i was upset thinking it was me even tho it wasnt. Most of the girls at the sleepover had it too and were checked for it anyways. There were like 10 girls minimum including me and my sister. Plus my two brothers, dad and mom. Which makes 14 ppl in total. That was the last time we had a sleepover that big. I hope nobody has to go throw lice its such a horrible experience. Plus after that for about a month i had nightmares about roaches, lice, bedbugs, and bugs in my bed and would wake up “seeing them” but once i blinked it was gone its cus it looked like my bed sheet design in the dark. Honestly i would be surprised if u read it all and came this far. Anyways thank u for ur time 🙏🏼☺️ Have a great day/evening/afternoon/night ❤️
With having 3 boys and they got lice from school a couple of times a year, it took FOREVER to get rid of those nasty critters. I have since taken my kids out of public school and have homeschooled them and we've been lice free. I feel for these kids and parents. Nothing worse to have to deal with these...
I had it as a child for 5 years straight, then we realized the problem was the school bus. The second my parents started driving me, it went away. So PLEASE make sure that if your kids are riding the bus to school, that it's not the problem.
When I was a kid, I used to get lice all the time. My foster mom would use metal combs (not sure about the word, English isn’t my first language) as well as whatever product she used on me that time, and holy hell, it was painful. For the better part of my childhood my scalp was nothing but healing wounds (again, not sure of the correct word to use here) and I was combed every single freaking day for weeks. Every time we’d finally gotten rid of them, I would have a week without lice and then back to business. It was painful and I would cry, a lot. Now, 20-ish years later and I have a fear of the little jerks.
Maybe not as often, but same here from when I was younger! Especially since my hair tangles so easily and my mom insists to comb me with my hair dry + she didn't know about or believed lice products. It felt like she was trying to pull my hair off and it would hurt to the point that I would cry so much and tried to hide from her to avoid it
@@sofii8150oh my hearts hurts for you guys.. you don’t need to buy any special lice shampoo tho.. I had lice 2 times in my entire year and in middle school after I had a sleepover by a friend ( both times I catched lice and never slept there again). Get a special lice comb (there are small ones made out of plastic, you won’t ever feel them!) and instead of shampoo you use a 1:1 mixture with vinegar and warm water. Massage your scalp and gently wash it, after your shower you use your lice comb over a towel or sheet of paper. The vinegar kills the eggs these bugs hate anything sour and can’t move, that’s why you can easily comb them out + it kills the eggs more efficiently and the eggs don’t glue as much to the hair
Those metal combs worked on me, but you had to get the correct angle so the comb won't puncture your poor scalp . Kinda sounds like your mom didn't know what she was doing. Sucks.
I remember when I got lice. It wasn’t too bad, and I maybe had it for a couple weeks before we went to a professional. It hurt really bad while they were taking the lice out though! The whole appointment probably took an hour, but the comb they used made my scalp hurt so much. I’m greatful I was able to have the appointment to get the lice out though, even having the lice for a few weeks sucked so much. I can’t even imagine having lice for so long!
No it's not like they didnt try to get them out there were just so many they got reduced when we did them but then they multiply again so it's like unless you get them all out then you're stuck
Had lice in 1st grade (in my 40's now), it was a nightmare, the shampoos and i can't even remember everything (prescription, otc, bitter melon leaf infusion, etc) my parents tried, but out of everything, what worked the best... avocado and vinegar.... smashed avocado would catch the bugs as it was combed out, then the vinegar to kill the nits, another avocado combing then regular wash.... helped that we had an avocado tree though I've heard of people using mayo in the same way... still use vinegar to wash my hair if I even think I've been around anyone who has bugs, the vinegar smell is only strong for a little while and it always has made my hair super soft (which is now almost down to my knees).
My father-in-law resorted to meths when nothing else worked after months of otc formulas. The meths worked but the lil girl needed a haircut as well as a REAL bubble bath n some Grandparent hugs n TLC afterwards. She cn giggle about it now but she's a fanatic keeping her babies kutu-free. She an amazing mom.💜💕
reminds me of being a kid, up until age 14 I had lice on and off for years. My mum would do her best to treat it but with 5 kids across 5 different year levels and very little money it never stayed away long. Funnily enough it was severe depression that got rid of it for good, I didn't wash my hair for a month and a half and it never came back to me
There's a business called lice angels? Are there that many people with lice that they have their own. PROFITABLE shop special for lice treatment? Never heard of it I'm 56 was the cosmetology field in Texas all my life and this is my first time hearing of it WOW!!!! You learn something new every day! KUDOS to the woman helping these kids! Your special for sure, huge & brave heart!
Same here Colleen...Im a licensed hairstylist and have been for 30 years and if someone came in the beauty shop we were told by law that we had to send them home and tell them to go to their doctor and get Rx quell shampoo or to the drug store for lice treatment. And we would also have to close down the beauty shop for CDC ( Centers for disease control ) made us shut down shop and clean with a certain barbicide and bleach solutions. 😉 I was the one who always wanted to pick the lice out of their heads I hope they do have professional shops now where kids and people can get treatment becuase everyone doesn't know how to treat themselves or have help. Thank God for this.
They do! I’m so grateful for these people. I personally have never had lice but 2 of my cousins have gotten them a few times. I believe they even visited this salon once. When I was in elementary school we had to have checks often because it was common.
Remember coming back from the Philippines, after visiting family, with lice, as a kid. Before we had left on the trip, we had bought the medicated shampoo. Did that twice in a row and then covered my hair and scalp in mayonnaise and slept on a plastic pay and newspaper on the the floor that night as oil would drip down my face. After that night, no lice. Granted, it was the first thing I did after coming back, so we didn’t have to thoroughly clean the house. Made sure NOTHING touched my head and went ham on the treatment. Was also about 13 at the time, so doing this by myself was also a chore
It’s so nice there are professionals to do this! My best friends granddaughter has the most beautiful super super super thick naturally curly red hair. She is a special needs Angel. She has enough hair for 10 kids! They treated and treated and treated and every time thought they got it. Nope. Finally found a place like this in their city and was able to get it cleared up.
I think they should consider cutting her hair and treat the lice. I had lice when I was younger many many years ago, it's not nice at all. Hope she is ok and its fully gone♥️♥️
@@angellawalker4948 Hi @Angella Walker ! That’s been over a year now and they had treatments several times after the initial treatment for *good measure*. She’s been clear since the first one professionally done. Her Mother and my dear friend are totally clean freaks and had the house exterminated, both cars, threw away all pillows and literally killed themselves to make sure this cleared. Thank goodness they finally got it and this sweet baby was so very good about the treatments. All this was also going on in the midst of them all grieving. This is such a precious family who lost their son and brother just after that first professional treatment. It was horrible for all and add this demon called hair lice!
Pleaseeee please try cat flea treatment drops I know it sounds silly and not safe but I promise it works amazing I used it twice when I was a kid and I never had them again
This is a labor of love. I remember many of my classmates having this infestation. Thankfully, there is professional treatment now available! This 2 year old is especially well behaved and cooperative.
I had this as a kid in elementary school and off and on in middle school. I haven't lice for awhile but its really a fucking struggle. Especially when you're surrounded by kids who don't understand being kind to others and not making fun of others.
When I was 5 years old I got lice from kindergarten. My mom tried everything, all different shampoos and then finally ...after we'd tried many things that didn't work. The doctor whispered to my mom pretty much... "Hey if you use mayonnaise it will suffocate and kill the lice" ... so we tried it and that was the only thing that worked ... I have pictures to this day of me with mayonnaise lathered heavily into my hair with a giant smile on my face
Oh gods that's what we always did for me, especially when I was very young and idk if we didnt have the money for lice treatment or my mom just trusted that method more. Worked amazingly even when treatments didn't do the job, it never failed. Though having a bag on your head which was slathered in mayo for a few hours kinda sucked

She has such beautiful, thick hair. I'm glad you were able to help restore her scalp
Her hair does look very thick I agree
Yeah I have thick hair and it was a struggle trying to get them out
@@yaris6565trust me you are blessed but you don’t know thick hair is to die for
When I was about 12, I was in class bored and decided I was going to style all of my classmates hairs with my brush; I did about 7 girls’ hair. BIG MISTAKE.
My scalp was very infected, it was awful. Sadly I come from a 3rd world country that has nothing, but luckily my mom came up with the idea of dying my hair, surprisingly after only one time, it killed them all (I’m even getting itchy telling this story) I feel for this little girl; thankfully there is people here like you that are able to help her. After I dyed my hair, it never grew back as healthy as it used to be.
“That spray is mot spraying- oh okay there we go” 😂
😂😂
Yea that shit was bothering me. I hate crap made products. It’s made to spray and it can barely do that.
It’s not just in her hair… but in the car, bedding, sofa, carpet, pillowcases, EVERYTHING! So you may use medicated shampoo, but you have to do the entire house!!
Actually lice can only live on human heads ☺️ ! Definitely a good idea to just wash whatever infected head touched but it can’t contaminate
And there in lies the problem !!!
I had gotten lice from my grandson and you have to wash bedding in really hot water and clothes and vacuum yes
@@preciousveil3122 actually I couldn't get rid of it once and was told to wash everything in really hot water clothes and bedding and vacuum really good and then finally after about 4 weeks I got rid of it true story
Look up the life cycle of lice ! They need blood to live , and people should use baking soda first, they can't release gas , so they explode !
There’s so much more than just getting products from the store. Couches, mattresses, stuffed animals, linens, EVERYTHING needs to be washed, sanitized and heat treated. If all you do is shampoo or foam, they will never go away.
When I first got lice my parents threw EVERYTHING away then sat me outside and got to work
My parents threw my stuff away 😔
You can also throw it in the freezer, thats always worked for us
… the car, combs, siblings should be treated, sometimes the parents, too. I’ve been a hairstylist nearly 30 years. It’s a pain in the butt and not cheap to treat, but you’re right. EVERYTHING has to be treated or it’s a never ending cycle.
Lice are parasitic they can not live for long away from a host aka mammal. In 24 hours with nothing to feed on they're dead. No need to throw things away.
Mix one part dish soap with one part vinegar then shampoo the hair every day for 10 days to 2 weeks. It kills adult lice on contact but not the eggs thus the reason for daily washes until you stop the egg cycle.
To kill off any in carpet mix Simple Green 50/50 with vinegar. Wash and change bedding daily.
No hats, no hoodies.
I did this when everything else we tried had failed.
My son hated it but after 10 days they were finally done.
It was hard work but so worth it.
I would recommend buying this comb. It is amazing. I have three daughters and when they are at the prime age of when kids get lice. I comb through their hair regularly just to be on the safe side. They all have thick long hair. This comb has saved us so much time and it’s not that expensive.
ah I remember when my mum couldn’t get rid of the lice from my sisters’ and my hair and we were all struggling for what felt like eternity. I kept seeing stories saying it’ll end one day but it felt hopeless, it was just never ending lice. I don’t remember how it finally went away, but I was so thankful. I would never wish this on anyone and my sympathy goes out to anyone struggling with a situation like this!
Yeah I hope I never get lice ever again
Yup. My four siblings and I had it. It was awful. I think I had it for the entirety of middle school. We did the combs, the shampoos, etc but seven people in a three bedroom meant we were just passing it to each other. They eventually just disappeared. Haven’t had it since and thank god. I also don’t have any kids so I can be confident I won’t have to deal with that again.
I had it too but when my mom was around she took an entire afternoon to just use the meds to kill the lice and pick apart the eggs and killing it. When my mom left and i got lice again yea i coulndt take it and just shaved my head lmfao. Thank god for the pandemics
@@mindyschocolate how long do they take to go? just wondering cause i have them right now :(

omygod i can feel my scalp itching from childhood memories
I hope the family is doing what they need to do with the home--like sheets, pillows and bedspreads.
Exactly, doesn't matter if you take it all off her hair, she'll just get reinfected if they don't clean the house thoroughly.
@chris kibodeaux you don’t know what they did with her hair because they didn’t show it all.
When it happened to my kids, I used Vaseline and combed it in ,then put a plastic bag or cap over the hair, the eggs can't hatch and it smothers the lice👍I would keep it on till the next day.No super lice story, no terrible chemicals,no more lice! No haircuts either!!
@chris kibodeaux she said they are super Lice they tried over the counter products but they are resistant to the products. Listen next time🙂
go get a flea treatment for ya hair i do it to my kids coke and plastic bag over there head change beds and everything flea bomb my house carpet powder to vaccume i dont even think they did anything to her hair cut the hair short is well and everyday put some oil in the hair nits cant land on the hair cause its oily
I had lice twice in my 14 years of existence and let me tell you, it’s so relaxing for someone to go through your hair and pick out the lice eggs and bugs. My grandma did it both times for me and got every little thing out no matter how long it took. Gotta love grandma and her commitment
Not when your so tender headed a soft breeze makes your head hurt. lol. Hi, that's me.
My grandma did it for me too when I was younger and sometimes it was annoying af tho🥲. My grandma was gentle, my mom and aunt would yeet my damn hair back😭💀
@@lesliehardeman6212 I’m tender headed but she was always gentle so it usually wasn’t a bother
@@II_P3arls_II it was always painful for me. Just thinking about it makes me wanna say OUCH...lol...
Same but it was my mom and I’ve only had it once
1. Teatree oil
2. Find a color dye that matches her hair... dye her hair...
3. Use a hair streightner and slowely streighten every strand... you will hear the eggs pop and burn...
Continue using teetree oil everyday.
Look at you!! Girl I’m so proud of you 💕 ever since our photography session you have been such a gem ❤
“Here at the ✨lice angels ✨” I’m dead😭😭😭
Dude texas has a PROBLEM with lice. They think its normal to get lice regularly here. Its insane. Texans are disgusting and I cannot wait to leave in 10 days. Never take a job here no matter how tempting the pay.
Right 😂
Where are you going? To lice angels, thanks for letting me use that hat the other day. 😂
😂😂😂
When I was a little kid, I had nits (lice eggs) and loved it when my mum would go through my hair. I’d put my head on a towel and I found it so relaxing. She’d put them on the corner of the sink and I’d pop them all with my thumb nail. Now I’m older, the thought of doing that makes me want to puke.
My little sister had it to and you could see the eggs because she has really blonde hair going towards the white blonde
Sounds like you're lucky to have such a loving and caring mother, one who not just took the time to nurture you but enjoyed it as well. 💕 It is sad to see many parents just cut or shave the hair because they're lazy and don't care. Very sad. But yes, I too have found memories of my mom doing my hair.. even the time I had bugs! Lol. ✌😘
My nanny used to do this to me when i was young like everytime i want to take a nap i always ask her to pop them until I fell asleep
same my mum did the same thing and I felt the same way
You can't have lice eggs without lice to lay the eggs ... Glad your mother took care of you.
Im so happy you were there to help her, I KNOW she feels so much better🖤 Super lice sound like no joke!
As someone with a lot of very thick curly hair who had lice like 2 times in my life, my mom would spend over 10 hours with a tiny comb in my hair and it was so painfull yet it's so great when they're gone
My mom would go through my hair until they were gone. She was so thorough and washed everything. I hated having to sit there and complained but growing up I realize the last thing she wanted to do was sit and get lice out of my hair. But she still did.
HAI FELLOW ENBY!! I also had lice and I’m so glad my Mom took the pressures! (Can’t spell) She has to get me this shampoo- it worked!
My grandma as well
My mom would take each one out one by one and pop them on her finger nails for hours. Now I do that for fleas lol 😆
This exact same thing used to happen with me as well🥺 grateful for my mom
Yeah. It's so disgusting & gross. And when they're crawling it's too much. We Moms don't like it all. Lol!
why does my head always start getting itchy as soon as i start watching these sorts of things 😭
Omg I was asking the same thing
Don't worry buds it happens with everybody
Righttt🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol I feel ya I couldn't stop while watching this 😅
Tell me about it!!!!😅😅
Yesus...my dad combed out my hair...and I have NEVER forgotten it. It was the worst pain to my tender scalp ever. I have curly Filipina/Irish curls from mixed ancestry. I was sat down with a danged near dry head...my mid-back length curls WHEN DRY was the most painful experience. My dad kept saying things like, "How did this section, knot into THIS uncombed section after I just combed it?!?" Also, it called for combing from the scalp down. It took 4 hours while I sat on newspaper in the middle of the dining table and just silently bawled, trying my best to hide it from my poor daddy. It was my wild hair's fault that my head hurt...my poor dad, he looked awful after hours of silent weeping. He wasn't aware of just HOW tender my scalp was. He thought my mom and sister and grandma were all teasing about my head...nope. I remember a CLUMP of dry hair ripping out.
I've never had lice thankfully but I've been checked so many times during school years because I have eczema and my parents never really bothered to do much beyond get a cream that sooths a break out, so there were no prevention measures, and shampoo and conditioner of certain types were a problem but if it was on sale "deal with it" they had four kids and weren't gonna extra stuff for just one kid. So my scalp often itched and you know that always set off the occasional lice check from teachers. My brothers even got lice, but I didn't, it was so strange. I'm thankful though, on top of extra itching I don't think I could have mentally handled the bugs.
“Her parents have tried everything on the counter. Nothing is working.”
Did we wash the bed sheets, pillows, couch, car, carpet etc?
Lice life cycle doesn't require that. They don't live longer than 48 hours off the scalp.

I used to be a stylist and I'd get super itchy everytime someone would come in with Lice especially if it was level 10.!! What used to really get me😮 mad was teenagers with long thick hair coming in for a cut and they knew they had an infestation but never said a word then you'd be half way through a cut and see them and discreetly telling them and they already knew!!!!!@@ AaaaRrrrrhhhg😮😮😮😮 This is disgusting not to tell your stylist as they are so contageous so you'd have to then steralise your equipment and all the towels and capes etc FFS PEOPLE THATS NOT COOL!😢
I had lice for 2 years when I was nine after going to camp for the first time. Bless your work, sometimes it’s SO HARD to get them all.. especially when you have thick hair as a child
You're doing such a great job giving relief to the sweet child. As an adult I can confirm the lice irritated me a lot and it was hell lot embarrassing scratching your hair and finding a lice just at the point. 😢😢
This is such a great job indeed ❤❤
Dang you KNOW it's bad when there is a market enough for head lice that you can create a business out of it 🤢 that poor baby. I'm glad she got the help she needed.

Yes, there is a business in my area that treats head lice. I was so surprised when I found out via a bumper sticker ad.
Yes it's bad down south. I grew up in Florida and we literally had head lice season where flyers would go home from school with safety tips and a nurse would ✔ u otw in every day
Right! Not to mention a level 10…I’m glad her folks got her some support 👏🏽
@Information Control Patrol s
bro.. this reminds me of a time where i found out i had lice, in the middle of math class.
I'll give a shorter version of the story for the people who don't want to read a long, detailed one. Here it is:
I was in 4th grade, math class when I scratched my hair - looked at my hands, and found a bug on it. Freaked out, screamed like hell, ran to the bathroom and washed my hands. After getting back home i told my mom, we quickly rushed to the pharmacy and bought a special lice shampoo. Truly a scary experience.
Here's the longer, detailed version of the story:
I, was always really afraid of really any type of bug. I would even scream and freak out if I saw an ant near me. Still am, and still do yo this day. Except now, I die silently on the inside instead of screaming on the outside. Skipping forward to 4th grade, elementary school, math class. I was feeling very itchy and couldnt stop scratching my head - but at that time I knew NOTHING of lice. I didn't know there was a type of bug that goes into your hair like that. So, I thought it was probably because I didn't take a shower in a while. I scratched my head, feeling comforted after that scratch. Until I looked at my hands, and saw LICE on my hands. As you would guess, I ABSOLUTELY FREAKED OUT. I literally kicked my chair back, screamed, told the teacher "AASGDHHDFB GET IT AWAY FROM ME!!!". My poor math teacher was trying to figure out why the hell I was screaming. I OPENED the door and ran all the way to the bathroom WHICH BY THE WAY was nowhere near my class. I then washed my hands as good as i could and I remember checking myself everywhere to make sure there wasnt any other bug on me - not knowing that the 'bug' (aka lice) came from my HAIR. after I got back home, I told my mom everything, describing the lice as a 'bug'. And when she told me to repeat the story, I said again, "I scratched my head, then I found a bug on my finger." She then quickly came over to me and checked my hair, and there it was. Lice. We quickly drove to our local pharmacy to buy lice shampoo, lice formula, and a special comb (just like the one they used in the video). I remember I wouldn't even want to TOUCH my hair. The thought of small tiny creatures crawling my hair was enough to make me freak out.
And also, to all of those people wondering "oh wow, this person really has some extra time to write entirely 2 versions of the story" it's 3 am in the morning, got nothing to do. thats why. lol. enjoy the rest of ur day ok bye now
Enjoy your day too!

@@countrymama555 you know it. I don’t know why people want hair that lice can attach itself to and live in the hair.
This gurl I went to middle school with had 3 inch long real hair corn rowed with 3 foot braided weave. Man, her friends called me over freaking out that she had baby spiders in her hair, she was trying to hit them out of her hair, bugs were falling everywhere. I was like, "Shit, those aren't spiders, that's lice." They all got offended and started yelling at me that "blk people can't get lice!!!". The teacher went to check it out (she didn't believe me) 5 second later she was yelling, you need to go home now, you have lice. The classroom had to be cleaned. She ended up getting rid of the braids and just staying natural. But because she had knocked lice all over the place, other kids got lice later. Everyone had to get their hair checked repeatedly. Our school was over 70% blk, everyone on that side of the room that got lice from her were blk girls with long hair extensions.
So the type of hair doesn't matter. The length of it does. If you have long hair, your hair touches chairs and desks. The lice climb up it. Because lice don't care what hair they get in, that is why schools do not allow any children to share headphones anymore. LoL
When i was about age 6 to 12 i grew up with 4 siblings and after we all got it, it took over. I couldnt go to school or get my hair trimmed without being shamed and sent home. My mom at the time had so much on her plate but wish she didnt have to make us go through that. I love seeing grown woman support and help get rid of lice because those who had it severely know it makes you want to hide into a shell. And no child should have to go through that.
It's sad that any kid is teased or stigmatized for something so common. Lice like a clean head, so it's not because of a lack of hygiene. In fact the only way we finally rid my daughter's of it was by using tons of hair gel and hairspray and by not washing their hair as often. My oldest had lice 12 times with long golden locks that went past her butt. I refused to cut her hair and spent countless hours with her laying on my lap picking nits. My grandma used to say, "there is no shame in getting lice, just a shame to keep them." Anyone can get them (Kings and Queens were lousy.
Fr! The random checks in school and everybody knew u had them cause they would seperate you and send you home lol sucked
I had them so often as teen around 14 that I still have an anxious tic where I run my fingers in a massaging motion through my hair without even thinking about it. I had them 4 times back to back. We tried everything to get rid of them. I even got them once as an adult and had tried everything to get them to go. We had to put minced garlic in my hair and they finally left me alone but my hair smelt like garlic for a month no matter how much I washed it. Even after apple cider vinegar rinses. Lice can be traumatizing for some people. Sweet little baby. I hope she never has to deal with them again.
@Spookyghostkitten1031 for future reference, try a parsley mask and cover your hair and scalp with it for like 30 min to an hr and wash it out with a clarifying shampoo (preferably mint scented or put peppermint essential oil drops in it). It may cancel out the Sulphur in the garlic (the "volatiles") because consuming parsley cures the garlic breath smell after eating a ton of garlic. And peppermint also effects it as well.
@@briathomas5310 Thank you so much for sharing this with me. I didn't even think about that. I was so happy the lice were gone that I didn't even think about other ways to fix it. I just gave up getting the smell out because I was so glad they were gone. Hopefully I won't need this information in the future but it's good to know for my kids. Thank you again. 😊
I’m glad you were able to help her. And these babies ❤
This is so amazing that y’all do this ❤ last time I got it boxes was not getting rid of it I even got a abscess that made my face drop I was so thankful when the doctor helped this I wish that no kids could get this. Y’all are so wonderful for helping her
My sister never dealt with her son's lice, she didn't like seeing him cry. After leaving him at my mother's for the upteenth time, I grabbed that kid and shaved his head. She never said a word! His father did, I just reminded him he was an adult version of his son. I love that kid, he knows it and was happy his nits were gone. Shit like this happens because some parents are lazy. ☹️
When i was younger,mom didn't care about my lice,not just mine but my siblings too, everyone was infected including her,i was embarrassed at school,i always smelled bad,i lost friends,no one was my friend,they knew. They got so much to the point (at home "treatments") that she used BLEACH LITERAL CLEANING BLEACH in our hair and it damaged it BADLY. I've gotten infected 3 times in my life,the other 2 times were from her other kids (my half siblings) and they also had A HUGE infestation problem. We were visiting her and I almost threw up because you could see them all,the kids smelled awful and it's not their fault,it's hers. When we confronted her she just said "it's okay it's a family thing". She's extremely toxic, she doesn't care,it's abuse,i literally hated myself when I was a kid because I felt disgusting,i was never clean, I'll never forgive her for letting this happen, when my siblings found out that we got infested again they just were considering shaving our heads. Thankfully it was not a major problem and we got rid of them quickly.
@@balls4582 wow i feel for you. That’s not right at all
@@balls4582 Sorry that happened to you. Lazy parents hate cleaning anything! With some it's mental illness, others have an abiding hatred of cleaning and have no cares it's affecting everyone in their orbit ☹️
This should have never happened to these children. Lazy parents
Or ya know, just comb them out properly maybe?
As a stylist I can say you guys are absolute saints!! I feel so bad when I have to tell a child and parent I can’t do the hair they were looking forward to getting due to lice!! I wish we had a place like this closer to where I’m at!!
Thank you beautiful 😍
Thank you for helping that sweet baby feel better ❤
I feel so bad. Watching this video I can feel them crawling in my head. I used to have a level 10 case of lice when I was little too and my parents tried absolutely everything and nothing worked. So they took me to get it professionally done and oh my god the feeling of even one sweep with that comb through the hair felt sooooooo good. I’m so glad you guys were able to help. I know she will feel sooo amazing after! God bless y’all.
I can imagine the hard time this kid is experiencing. I got lice from elementary to secondary, it's itchy that i wanna shave my hair. Good thing it got lessen when I'm in college then suddenly, it's gone
Why did you let your hair get infested for so many years
@@euphisa8127 yeah
@@euphisa8127 some just get it easier than others. Some of my friends at school had it...but me and my sister never got it.
How did you have it for so long? We’re you cleaning your home thoroughly? Including all clothing and bedding. As a parent of three girls I became super diligent to make sure it was gone and didn’t come back. Did your parents not help you? I’m sorry you had to deal w that for so long as a child. That’s not fair
I remember as a 6 yo that I got so itchy I started to poke my scalp with a sharpened pen...while crying/scream at the lice to die
My mom solved me and my sister lice problem by matching our natural hair color with a hair dye and literally trashing everything she could. Bedding,towels,hair brushes etc. I remember she spent a full year obsessing over the cleaning and our scalp. God bless every momma for dealing with every type of issue
I have always used hair die to get ride of it the cheapest one has always worked best! Had a friend her grand had it and they had done everything they even went to a shop but she had the thickest hair I've ever seen ! I had to talk her into doing it but when we washed her hair out you could see the bugs just washing down the drain !
Poor Baby.. Glad they Helped Her!!🙏💖💖💖
Poor baby ❤ she has beautiful hair. Children shouldnt have to go through this. You dont know your classmates homes lives til you grow up and figure it out. Makes me want to go back to school and hug those kids i knew
EVERYONE LISTEN.
Shampoo hair and dowse the head with pure tea tree oil, wrap in a towel and let it sit for 30 mins. This catches the blitters and poisons them because pure tea tree stinks and unholy amount.
If you have thick dark hair they will target you because it’s easier to hide. Once you’ve done this wash bedding and get new pillows.
I used to get nits every feb no question when I was younger having thick brown hair was a breeding ground. Hope this helps!!!
Edit- I forgot to say comb the hair with a nit comb and when you find no more nits completely wash the hair. It’s good to do all the kids in the house to be sure.
Yes! Tea tree oil works the best. Add some in your shampoo so it gets in hair with every wash and it prevents them too.
if the tea tree stinks that much is it a good idea to put it in your hair?
A little tea tree oil in the shampoo made my kiddo the only one without lice in his class
@@expertgaming- Note they will 🧴 it out,after the treatment!
@@expertgamingit stinks to them! (Apparently) but to most humans it smells v good
Brings back flashbacks to when I was 13 and had a horrific lice infestation for months! Like her parents,mine tried everything too. My mom sat on the floor and went over my hair for hours as I cried. We cleaned the house like crazy,did all the shampoos and treatments and nothing was working! I honestly thought I was gonna have to shave my head as a sobbed about it daily. Nobody else in the family got it and we to this day don't know where I got it from. We finally started doing home remedies as we had nothing to lose. Whatever we did,I can't remember what exactly, in combination with what we had been doing finally worked! But it was probably a 4-6 month process. Wishing this doll all the best!
Brings back memories

Me and my sister would both get lice bad.. the treatments would work but then we'd get them again a week later.... finally my mom said screw it and dyed our hair... only had lice again 2 years later and one round of dye it was gone
Had a similar situation!! Had to chop my hair and all my step mom did was use conditioner. She would put it in my hair and comb everything out everyday. We put all the blankets, stuffed animals, etc in the drier so we fried them. It worked thank god. We cleaned everyday til the house was lice free but all we did was use conditioner and a lice comb really
As an African American I never understood lice but this video helped. My son has ringworm in his head for almost 2 YEARS! very traumatic for him. We tried everything
Same here my grandmother sat for days picking my hair
This is Truly amazing That you do these kids with Respect; and Are so understanding.
I couldn't do this job, I get itchy just by thinking about it. I am so happy someone like you can though and is doing amazing at helping those people.
God bless her. To be patient to sit there for all those treatments and she has a good amount of hair. Lice is like fleas… takes forever and a day to get rid of. Hopefully this did the trick for her.
Lice is about 10X harder to get rid of than fleas. Lice are 100% resistant to pesticides. That means that you have to kill them manually. And if you miss one little egg it starts all over again. If you miss throwing one item in the wash machine, it starts all over again. It was traumatic to me as a child. I thought my parents hated me because of it. It still bothers me a lot when i see things like this
Nah but why is her voice echoing like an angel like she’s talking inside an abyss…💀
Ty for helping kids with this issue. Ty for normalizing it for them. Everyone gets lice once.. I got it from my niece who got it from school... It's nothing to be ashamed of.
Poor baby! I’m so glad she had you guys to help her!
There’s NO SHAME in catching Lice
The SHAME comes from keeping it.
There’s shame in both
@@ell2432 not really? Honestly anyone can catch lice. Even Madonna’s kids caught lice?
SERIOUSLY, LICE DOSEN’T DISCRIMINATE!
Lice has no clue if your rich or poor?
LICE ONLY CARES IF YOU HAVE BLOOD PUMPING THROUGH YOUR VEINS 🩸
So for that fact, NOBODY should be ASHAMED of catching lice! Because even you my FRIEND COULD EASILY CATCH LICE TOO! Unless your not Human?
The SHAME comes from DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT!! IGNORING IT and PASSING IT TO OTHERS?
Sadly, IGNORANCE is BLISS though?
@@kellyb1420 MANY PETS CONTAMINATE PPL BECAUSE THEY DON’T GET ENOUGH BATHES .

Yes ma'am!
As a 2nd grader (I am an adult now) I had lice myself but my sister had it bad. It was nasty and I don't think I could have long hair like I did when I was 8. So glad this place is there for those kiddos
Holy moly poor baby!!!! Bless you for your business!!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
PARENTS-- you HAVE TO de-louse your kids hair MANUALLY, with nit combs and plenty of time & patience, in conjunction with topical lice treatments. You cannot just slap on some treatment shampoo & be done with it. Nit comb thru hair several times a week. You can smother the hair with just regular conditioner to do this process as you probably don't want to use the harsh chemicals in lice treatments on a daily basis (even drenching the hair with plain cooking oil works a treat, it's cheap and safe on skin. the oil practically drowns the lice and makes lice & eggs slide out easily without causing irritation from chemicals). And even after no signs of lice you still need to check hair regularly, even daily whenever doing your kids hair, you can quickly check the hotspots that lice first lay eggs which are the hair right around the ears, the nape/ back of the neck, and the hairline around the forehead. It only takes 1 egg to hatch 1 louse that will lay dozens of eggs a day and the whole dang cycle repeats.
Right towards the end of kindergarten everyone in my house got lice and my mom was combing through 5 heads of hair and nuking everyone's scalps with a hairdryer.
Because I have a sensitive scalp (undiagnosed seborrheic dermatitis at the time) I absolutely *hated* this and was the most troublesome to deal with, so my mom just buzzed my hair and made it easier. Definitely cut down the lice on me and helped my mom, but it took years to grow out and I still hate hairdryers with a passion.
Yes, it takes hours and patience.
Also change the pillow cases, bedding and soft/plush toys
@@Skylarynn my mom put mayo and peanut butter in my hair. 🤢
Yeah the lice treatment is very bad!! It actually chemically burned one of my daughter's scalp & ears!!
I got lice SO FAST in just one night of being at my friends house when I was a kid (now that I'm older I can see and say she was horribly neglected food and hygiene wise) and after I did treatment my hair was so smooth and shiny. I felt so much better but so scared of if I spread it.... Thank god I only had it once
Can you tell what you did for your hair after you got rid of them. (Because i had em too, but after so much of effort i got rid of them, but my hair went soo dry and frizzy after that) because i struggled a lot and tried everything possible for getting rid of them. It would be a great help if you suggest me anything.
And you just perpetuated the stereotype about lice . Thank you so much
@@tracimetcalf3374How is specifying someone’s situation stereotypical? I was literally neglected myself, do you see me getting offended?
@@LakeofCrystalclanthe stereotype of lice is that they are connected with poor hygiene and neglect. In actuality lice prefer clean heads
I had lice from 7th grade to 9th grade all because my mother refused to change the bedsheets after my cousin who unknowingly had lice in her hair came over for a sleep over. We tried everything to get them out of my hair until the hospital had to do something because my scalp was irritated to the point i was bleeding from scratching.
I always felt so akward having to turn down hanging out with my friend or having sleepovers cause i never eanted to cause something like that. Its so nice to see people doing stuff like this! I bet that little girl was so happy!! Bless you all! ❤️❤️❤️
I just came back from Corpus Christi from the holidays and my dad's part of the family lives there .
I can't even imagine how hard it might be having a lice infestation on a curly hair
Black people actually have oil on our scalps that prevent lice! But other people with curly hair 😬
@@asxtro7145 I didn’t know that! I guess you do learn something new everyday :))
I have curly hair and used to have lice. It was hard but I'm lice-free now!
@@asxtro7145 False. We can still get lice but are less likely because of the amount of products we tend to use to keep our hair moisturized. It is a myth that we have special oils or that the texture of our hair prevents lice. Now you know!
@@neurologylove2135 oh sorry thanks.
My mum combed my hair every evening and when she found anything, my hair was then doused in conditioner, because it suffocated the lice, and combed through again. Simple but very effective.
My oldest had this issue in 3rd grade. I finally started washing her hair with dog shampoo every day for 2 weeks. Then maintained with Head and Shoulders every other hair washing.
I suffered with lice as a kid from a school that was neglecting the sanitary policies and not sending infected kids home to get properly treated, and that caused a full on outbreak throughout the whole school- and when I got lice, My father would sit down for hours- combing my hair everyday, getting every nit and egg he could see and he would usually get it all for me me after a few days of constant treatment, while also keeping all my bedding and clothing bagged up on the porch- (depending on how bad it was.) but the school was so infested I ended up catching it 8 or 9 whole times in 1 year and that’s when my parents decided to notify the school board- nothing really happened- so then my parents decided to actually go on a local radio station to talk about the schools neglect regarding the whole situation and that’s when the school FINALLY listened and changed their ways, but so many kids I knew were suffering just as bad as I was. It was tragic.
Lice is absolutely horrible for any child to go through😢
I'll never forget how I literally had no idea lice was a thing until I went highschool in a "better" area.
🥴🤣🤣😂😂😭
I didn't know about lice until I was bused to a predominantly white school in 5th grade back in 1972. We had our hair hot combed every Sunday morning and Mum put grease in every Wednesday morning before school. Some of my white friends Mum's started put oil in their kids hair after I went to sleepovers at their homes and saw me putting grease in my hair after washing and drying my hair.
Didn't know until I was in the military and someone had them so they checked us all
@@leeannsellers6147 I know right. Geesh
I went to a school with ppl with that type of hair and I still never saw them with lice. I'm a 4c hair type so even if they had it, I wouldn't know. Thank Goood my coils saved me.
Literally angels you change these kids lives I would’ve cried if someone helped me as a kid like this
Thank you so much 🥰
Mayonnaise
So glad they helped that precious baby girl. Hope she never gets lice again.😢
Amen to you guys! Instead of just cutting the hair off y’all take the time and go through each piece of hair!
Happy her parents found and took her to your *Caring Group* so sad when Children suffer with Lice 😣 hope she feels much better 🙏😍
Is it actually a big problem?
People here in India might have build tolerance to it or something then cuz we don't give a fk. We just comb the lice out of the hair rarely
Thank you love.
I hope you informed the parents that she will get reinfected if they don't clean EVERYTHING in their home. Wash all bedding, treat furniture/carpeting, wash all necessary clothing and bag up the rest.
Yup bag all stuffed animals that can not be washed for 2 weeks. Lice die after a week if they can't eat. Also after you kill the lice, I'd you can't get the eggs(nits) out hair die works great. The die swells the hair shaft break the glue the lice uses to make the egg stick. Egg comes right off.
That is right! Everyone in house needs checking!
They are running a professional business for lice removal and yet here you are acting like you somehow know more. "I hope you told them..."🙄 Of course they told them that they obviously need to go home and clean everything. Seriously...
That is how most don't get rid of them.. too lazy to do what it takes
@@Nicole-qc5dh ok and your butthurt for what
I dont know why but instead of getting freaked out by these things i love watching the videos!
dude i needed this as a kid
I have been cosmetologist for over 30 years…I have the utmost respect for what you all do for these children . You are truly angels
Next time tried Mayonnaise leave for 15 minutes. I saw on you tube before and applied to my kids amazing results.
It really is a nightmare. Just like some of the people that have posted, you can get it from anyone, anywhere, at any time. The hard work isn't so much in combing the lice out of the hair, (although that is quite a job in itself for both the parent and the child), it's the many, many, many, many hours, days, and weeks of continued washing of all of the beds, linens, towels, couch cushions, stuffed animals, car seats, bike helmets, and the list goes on. It's something that has to be done daily and until the lice are gone, (usually for some time after you see the last bug you have to continue with the cleaning process because there could be eggs that haven't asked yet), it is not a job for the weak that is for sure! 💪😭🥺😵💫😫😱😢🤦🏼♀️🪳
I remember when i got lice for the first time i was in 2nd grade and i was minding my business eating lunch but my lunch lady contacted my mom bc she noticed after a week how i would consistently scratch my head.
My mom picked me up immediately and had no idea what to do. She got me wendys and we went home. She was more terrified then me and i was reLly scared. She called my grandma not knowing what to do. After we went and bought the special spray thing and comb.
I sat for hours in the tub while my mom was taking the eggs and lice out of my hair it itched so bad and was so uncomfortable.I had to go to sleep with a hair cap on so it would get my bed dirty and it would get suffocated.
That just mad it itch even more and made my head hot. Anytime i think of it i get really itchy and it freaks me out.
Eventually we went to my grandmas house and she tried to help.
Then the second time i got it, it was bc my sister had it. I was traumatized from the first time around and just thinking i had to go through that again.... that was a nightmare.
She blamed it on me bc she was so mad that she had it and i was upset thinking it was me even tho it wasnt. Most of the girls at the sleepover had it too and were checked for it anyways. There were like 10 girls minimum including me and my sister. Plus my two brothers, dad and mom. Which makes 14 ppl in total.
That was the last time we had a sleepover that big.
I hope nobody has to go throw lice its such a horrible experience.
Plus after that for about a month i had nightmares about roaches, lice, bedbugs, and bugs in my bed and would wake up “seeing them” but once i blinked it was gone its cus it looked like my bed sheet design in the dark.
Honestly i would be surprised if u read it all and came this far.
Anyways thank u for ur time 🙏🏼☺️
Have a great day/evening/afternoon/night ❤️
Damn that awful I remember having a lot of lice my dad just shaved off all my hair lol
With having 3 boys and they got lice from school a couple of times a year, it took FOREVER to get rid of those nasty critters. I have since taken my kids out of public school and have homeschooled them and we've been lice free. I feel for these kids and parents. Nothing worse to have to deal with these...
I had it as a child for 5 years straight, then we realized the problem was the school bus. The second my parents started driving me, it went away. So PLEASE make sure that if your kids are riding the bus to school, that it's not the problem.
When I was a kid, I used to get lice all the time. My foster mom would use metal combs (not sure about the word, English isn’t my first language) as well as whatever product she used on me that time, and holy hell, it was painful. For the better part of my childhood my scalp was nothing but healing wounds (again, not sure of the correct word to use here) and I was combed every single freaking day for weeks. Every time we’d finally gotten rid of them, I would have a week without lice and then back to business. It was painful and I would cry, a lot.
Now, 20-ish years later and I have a fear of the little jerks.
Sounds like she used turpentine.
that must’ve been terrible. you’re doing a really good job with your english btw, i couldn’t even tell it’s not your first language
Maybe not as often, but same here from when I was younger! Especially since my hair tangles so easily and my mom insists to comb me with my hair dry + she didn't know about or believed lice products. It felt like she was trying to pull my hair off and it would hurt to the point that I would cry so much and tried to hide from her to avoid it
@@sofii8150oh my hearts hurts for you guys.. you don’t need to buy any special lice shampoo tho.. I had lice 2 times in my entire year and in middle school after I had a sleepover by a friend ( both times I catched lice and never slept there again). Get a special lice comb (there are small ones made out of plastic, you won’t ever feel them!) and instead of shampoo you use a 1:1 mixture with vinegar and warm water. Massage your scalp and gently wash it, after your shower you use your lice comb over a towel or sheet of paper. The vinegar kills the eggs these bugs hate anything sour and can’t move, that’s why you can easily comb them out + it kills the eggs more efficiently and the eggs don’t glue as much to the hair
Those metal combs worked on me, but you had to get the correct angle so the comb won't puncture your poor scalp .
Kinda sounds like your mom didn't know what she was doing.
Sucks.
I remember when I got lice. It wasn’t too bad, and I maybe had it for a couple weeks before we went to a professional. It hurt really bad while they were taking the lice out though! The whole appointment probably took an hour, but the comb they used made my scalp hurt so much. I’m greatful I was able to have the appointment to get the lice out though, even having the lice for a few weeks sucked so much. I can’t even imagine having lice for so long!
I had it for over a year from beginning of year 5 to mid way though year 6 after I had come back from Bangladesh, it was horrible
How did u even catch that?? My mind blows 😕
@@dxrberrii728 oh yalls parents were horrible

Ooo lord so glad I didn't have to worry about that or my kids ..poor child😲
Mine, too and then I read your comment. Made me laugh. Seriously, tho...Bless this baby girl.
Had lice in 1st grade (in my 40's now), it was a nightmare, the shampoos and i can't even remember everything (prescription, otc, bitter melon leaf infusion, etc) my parents tried, but out of everything, what worked the best... avocado and vinegar.... smashed avocado would catch the bugs as it was combed out, then the vinegar to kill the nits, another avocado combing then regular wash.... helped that we had an avocado tree though I've heard of people using mayo in the same way... still use vinegar to wash my hair if I even think I've been around anyone who has bugs, the vinegar smell is only strong for a little while and it always has made my hair super soft (which is now almost down to my knees).
My father-in-law resorted to meths when nothing else worked after months of otc formulas. The meths worked but the lil girl needed a haircut as well as a REAL bubble bath n some Grandparent hugs n TLC afterwards. She cn giggle about it now but she's a fanatic keeping her babies kutu-free. She an amazing mom.💜💕
reminds me of being a kid, up until age 14 I had lice on and off for years. My mum would do her best to treat it but with 5 kids across 5 different year levels and very little money it never stayed away long. Funnily enough it was severe depression that got rid of it for good, I didn't wash my hair for a month and a half and it never came back to me
There's a business called lice angels? Are there that many people with lice that they have their own. PROFITABLE shop special for lice treatment? Never heard of it I'm 56 was the cosmetology field in Texas all my life and this is my first time hearing of it WOW!!!! You learn something new every day! KUDOS to the woman helping these kids! Your special for sure, huge & brave heart!
You obviously never taught school! ☺️ The head lice was rampant at times.
Lice spreads really quickly in school but it shouldn't happen unless there is head to head contact
Same here Colleen...Im a licensed hairstylist and have been for 30 years and if someone came in the beauty shop we were told by law that we had to send them home and tell them to go to their doctor and get Rx quell shampoo or to the drug store for lice treatment. And we would also have to close down the beauty shop for CDC ( Centers for disease control ) made us shut down shop and clean with a certain barbicide and bleach solutions. 😉 I was the one who always wanted to pick the lice out of their heads I hope they do have professional shops now where kids and people can get treatment becuase everyone doesn't know how to treat themselves or have help. Thank God for this.
They do! I’m so grateful for these people. I personally have never had lice but 2 of my cousins have gotten them a few times. I believe they even visited this salon once. When I was in elementary school we had to have checks often because it was common.
Yes. There's also a lice treatment place in San Antonio ,TX.
With it being a “Level 10 infestation”, I am interested in knowing what the highest level is? I have experienced worse and have seen worse.
Level 10 is the highest
I’ve seen way worse way worse than this girls hair
I seen things you couldn’t even imagine
This seems more like a level 7 but then again, this may have been the last sweep.
10 is the highest
I use this exact same method for removing gym leader Bede’s dandruff to bake muffins
Remember coming back from the Philippines, after visiting family, with lice, as a kid. Before we had left on the trip, we had bought the medicated shampoo. Did that twice in a row and then covered my hair and scalp in mayonnaise and slept on a plastic pay and newspaper on the the floor that night as oil would drip down my face.
After that night, no lice. Granted, it was the first thing I did after coming back, so we didn’t have to thoroughly clean the house. Made sure NOTHING touched my head and went ham on the treatment.
Was also about 13 at the time, so doing this by myself was also a chore
It’s so nice there are professionals to do this! My best friends granddaughter has the most beautiful super super super thick naturally curly red hair. She is a special needs Angel. She has enough hair for 10 kids! They treated and treated and treated and every time thought they got it. Nope. Finally found a place like this in their city and was able to get it cleared up.
I think they should consider cutting her hair and treat the lice. I had lice when I was younger many many years ago, it's not nice at all. Hope she is ok and its fully gone♥️♥️
@@angellawalker4948 Hi @Angella Walker ! That’s been over a year now and they had treatments several times after the initial treatment for *good measure*. She’s been clear since the first one professionally done. Her Mother and my dear friend are totally clean freaks and had the house exterminated, both cars, threw away all pillows and literally killed themselves to make sure this cleared. Thank goodness they finally got it and this sweet baby was so very good about the treatments. All this was also going on in the midst of them all grieving. This is such a precious family who lost their son and brother just after that first professional treatment. It was horrible for all and add this demon called hair lice!
Pleaseeee please try cat flea treatment drops I know it sounds silly and not safe but I promise it works amazing I used it twice when I was a kid and I never had them again
This is a labor of love. I remember many of my classmates having this infestation. Thankfully, there is professional treatment now available! This 2 year old is especially well behaved and cooperative.
Awe man i had lice as a kid and the feeling of the comb going threw my hair hurt so bad i feel for these kids
I had this as a kid in elementary school and off and on in middle school. I haven't lice for awhile but its really a fucking struggle. Especially when you're surrounded by kids who don't understand being kind to others and not making fun of others.

My scalp started itching tf
When I was 5 years old I got lice from kindergarten. My mom tried everything, all different shampoos and then finally ...after we'd tried many things that didn't work. The doctor whispered to my mom pretty much... "Hey if you use mayonnaise it will suffocate and kill the lice" ... so we tried it and that was the only thing that worked ...
I have pictures to this day of me with mayonnaise lathered heavily into my hair with a giant smile on my face
Oh gods that's what we always did for me, especially when I was very young and idk if we didnt have the money for lice treatment or my mom just trusted that method more. Worked amazingly even when treatments didn't do the job, it never failed. Though having a bag on your head which was slathered in mayo for a few hours kinda sucked
Why did the doctor whisper?
I use mayo and plastic wrap and comb comb comb those little buggers out.
@@andreaw4602 because they arent suppose to tell you that. They are suppose to try and sell u the shampoos that dont work 😂
