The Dreadlock Bloggen

Just the thought of lice freeks me out! Yes I admit it I hate everything to do with lice. Making this video also got my hair to start to itch. 

But I got this question from: lejonlind And now in my kids school they have put up notes about lices in school.. if (really hope not) I got lice in my dreads, how do I do?

And also from Lena: What happens if I get lice? Can you get rid of lice out of dreadlocks?

You don’t have to shave off your dreadlocks off if you get lice don’t worry. There are ways to fix this. Watch the video and you will get my advice on how to get rid of lice from your dreadlocks.

Today, I have from Young Tel a Tzu. “What happens if I get lice? What happens if they appear on my head?”

This is an issue that I get a lot of phone calls from people that have children in school. They kind of freak out when their children get lice and they get these notes home from school saying that there is lice in their kids’ grade. Well, one thing to prevent getting lice is to buy tea tree oil and put it in water.

Use it in a spray bottle and spray yourself and your kids with this and the lice do not like tea tree oil. So, that’s a really good thing you can do to prevent them when you get this note home.

If you get lice into your dreadlocks, you don’t have to cut them off. You should go to the closest pharmacy and talk them about what type of anti-lice shampoo they have. There are different shampoos, gels and different things that you can use to put on your hair to get the lice to die.
