I've just found about 20 nits/louse in my sons hair (again). The summer holidays we get clear, then each time he goes back to school from holiday after about two weeks he has loads of them. We got clear in October half term and then a week after i went through with the nit comb and found a massive one... I tell the school, then school puts it on boards, in news letters etc, but some people just can't be treating and don't seem to care that their kids have nits..!!
I have questions;
Do some people just accept that primary aged children have nits?
What else can you do other than email class parents and tell school?
Do i just keep treating my kids with chemical products when i know full well that they will get them back again..?
I use tea tree and all usual deterrents but i think its a real problem with some children at the school
The other thing that really really annoys me is that when i treat myself my hair dye fades - so its bloody expensive as well buy all product for the children i'm wasting money at the hairdressers!
Bring back the nit nurse
