My little sister has lice?
A way to get rid of head lice naturally is to put mayonnaise in hair let it sit for about 45 minutes rinse, then pour white vinegar over her head. The mayonnaise suffocates the lice and the white vinegar removes it.You can get tea tree shampoo available at whole foods, Trader Joe's, Sally's Beauty Supply, and some Walgreen's. Use that as her normal day to day shampoo it is a natural way to repel head lice. My little sister also has had it like 3-4 times. It gives me the hibbie jibbies because I have really long hair, and don't want tot get it. Aahhh good luck I hate lice it's so gross. :)
My sister's boyfriend has lice and I'm FREAKING OUT that I'm going to get it (from my sister). HELP!?
Okay, so my older sister has a boyfriend right now and he called her about two weeks ago to say his younger sister has lice... They aren't doing anything about it! The kid keeps getting sent home from school because they aren't doing anything! Finally, after two weeks, they are trying to get rid of it but they say he "doesn't have it". Is that even possible? They live in a tiny disguising home and didn't do something for 2 weeks (not to mention the time before they caught it) Well my sister has my parents convinced they're doing an excellent job with the lice and it's gone. :/. Now, he's coming over MY HOUSE this weekend. I'm completely 100% freaking out. I am a germaphobe... and have had lice once before, probably the worst experience of my life.. Please give me advice on what to do, anything! I guess if he does come over, I'm going to keep my stuff to myself and be a loner at home until they discover my older sister has lice (what a shock that'll be :p) so I don't get it. I know if my older sister does my little sister will because she isn't careful like me. Thanks!
How do I tell my sister not to post pictures of mom dad siblings without asking first, she's a Facebook junkie?
If someone has already told her this, and she’s ignoring the request, what do you do? You could try to take very embarrassing pictures of her and post them, but that’s rather cruel. Or threaten to post them? Give her a taste of her own medicine? Some people are into exposing their lives for the masses; some people are not. However, the people who are should respect family members who aren’t.
I found a random lice bug in my hair, but nothing else. should I be worried? and does this mean I do have lice?
Okay so I'm straighting my hair, and I'm just doing my normal thing. you know the layers and what not, when suddenly I feel really itchy in one spot. and I itched it, then I looked under my nail, and I saw a lice bug. I have SUPER thick hair, and the last time I got lice i couldn't get it all out and I had to cut off most of my hair. it was mortifying! So I'm going through my hair and i haven't found anything else so far. then I asked my boyfriend to look too, he found one egg so far and thats all. So Now i'm wondering if I should be worried about this. He was younger siblings ans they are in their dirty phase as young boys (GROSS) I think they may have it but the mom denys it. and I live with them.. =( so now i'm wondering, if I should be worried and if I should cut my hair hair again do all the stuff that comes with nasty lice... UGH!!! I don't want to unless I should or have to... PLEASE help me ASAP keep in mind it was only one lice and one egg on my entire head...
My brother has lice. How likely am I to get it..?
If you do not already have head lice, you can avoid getting them by avoiding head to head contact with your brother. You should also avoid sharing hats, hoodies etc. with him. You should stay away from basically any fabric item that he touches. The lice can survive away from a human head for up to 2 days. Lice cannot jump or fly. The main way for them to move from one person to another is by crawling during head to head contact. If you are very careful you should be able to avoid getting them. Using a shampoo with tea tree oil can also prevent head lice If you DO get head lice DON'T panic - get a good lice comb and look up the proper technique. Lice killing shampoos can be hazardous to your health and superlice can't be killed because they have developed resistance to the poison in the shampoos. Plain old conditioner will slow them down so they can't hide while you remove them with a comb.

Suppose your younger brother is going to stay in a foreign country for a higher education. What kind of advice and suggestions would you give?
I would tell him that everybody has two wolfs inside. The first one is bad, angry, suspicious, envious, ungratful…The second wolf is good, grateful, kind, smart, solution oriented, has a possibility to empower others… After this I would ask him which wolf does he like more. I expect that answer will be “ the good one”. The thing is that both wolves can influence us. The only thing that matter is which wolf do we feed.I would tell him this cause we cannot take care of our relatives always when we want. In my opinion this is one of the ways hiw to make them think about their behaviour when nobody can control them.
Do black people get lice? If not, why?
Black children, whether they be 'African-American' or foreign national, do host head lice. For reasons no one really understands, the prevalence of infestation amongst black children (at least in North America) is about a tenth of that noted in kids of other groups. The list of proposed explanations is quite long, but these are merely speculative. Some 'explanations' are not worthy of mention, as they seem merely to be biased by racism. Other explanations seem somewhat plausible, but are not necessarily correct.The structure of the hair of blacks is fairly ovoid in cross section, whereas that of Caucasians and others tends to be rounder. Perhaps, the claws of the head lice are better at grasping round hairs. I am not a fan of this 'biophysical' explanation, although it is entirely possible that this difference does play a role. Instead, I suspect that black children are, in general less exposed to head lice. Unfortunately, kids tend to self-segregate and play and interact with kids of their own racial groups. If you rug wrestle with other non-infested kids, you're less likely to encounter head lice. Even more importantly (I believe) is the level of care afforded to the hair by the children's parents. In my experience (I've directly examined more than 10,000 kids for head lice), I've noticed that the hair of black children tends to be shorter (at least in boys) and much better attended (preened, groomed, etc) than that of kids in other groups. If this is true (and this is only an observation on my part), then the parents or care-givers of these kids might more readily find an offending louse on the hair and remove that object. Additionally, certain products are more frequently applied to the hair of black children and adults than to others. Might this have a role in reducing prevalence of head lice amongst black children? Who knows. These are each simply possibilities worthy of consideration.Finally, it is worth noting that this distinction (lower prevalence on black children in the US) does not extend to black children in other countries. Prevalence of head lice on black children can be impressively high in parts of Africa and elsewhere. Being free of head lice can be considered an 'abnormal' condition.
