Lice

[Skysue]

Thanks I haven't seen anything yet and know she wasn't in close contact to the older child. I also put a heck of a lot of spray in conditioner on her hair 15 minutes before she went to the party as she has very curly hair that tends to get it quite tangled. I put her hair in braids as well. I just read they don't like product in hair and tend to avoid heads like that.

Omg has my skin and head been crawling since the phone rang thus morning.

Now I know nobody likes lice. In fact, most people with recoil in horror. But I am absoultely TERRIFIED of the buggers. If I ever found a nit or bug in my child's hair I would seriously start to hyperventilate!

I would probably invest in a lice comb as well. Just in case. But I would not treat hair with any chemicals unless I was certain that my child had lice.

I remember a woman in the GTA started her own company, making house calls to rid families and their homes of lice. I think she was called..."the Lice Lady". I'm gonna look her up.

I'm going to start doing this as a preventative measure.
