Product Information: The Safe & Sound Nit Comb can be effective in detecting the presence of head lice and can be used in the wet combing method of treatment. For chemical treatment using rinses or lotions, it is recommended that the advice of your preferred local healthcare professional is sought.
Head lice are small insects, roughly the size of a match head when fully grown, and usually grey or brown in colour. The eggs are laid in sacs, known as nits, stuck to the base of individual hairs and are dull in colour. The eggs take 7-10 days to hatch and the empty sacs, being white and shiny, may be found further along the hair shaft as the hair grows out. The lice take 7-14 days to reach maturity, whereupon reproduction can take place.
Other Information: Paper
Preparation and Usage: Detection: Carefully and thoroughly comb wet hair from root to tips with a Safe & Sound Nit Comb. Pay particular attention to areas under the fringe, behind the ears and around the nape of the neck. Inspect and then rinse the comb after each stroke. Remember that it is crucial to trace and treat the source of the infestation. Use the magnifying glass to help identify the source of infestation. Regular examination of the whole family should be undertaken, and schools notified where applicable.
Wet Combing Treatment Method: Head lice may be cleared over two week period, without the use of chemical preparations, by using a Safe & Sound Nit Comb as follows: Wash hair in the normal way with your usual shampoo. Whilst hair is very wet, add a generous amount of ordinary conditioner and comb hair thoroughly and carefully with a Safe & Sound Nit Comb. Ensure that the teeth of the comb slot into the hair at the root for the start of each stroke. Comb over a pale surface, such as a paper towel or the bath, and rinse the comb clear of lice after each stroke. Wet lice find it difficult to escape and conditioner helps to prevent lice keeping a grip on the hair. Repeat this routine every 3-4 days for 2 weeks so that any lice emerging from eggs are not given the opportunity to reproduce. For further information, please contact your local pharmacist, doctor, school nurse or health visitor.
