First buy a good lice comb to comb out the eggs. I recommend the LiceMiester. Then soak your hair and scalp in rubbing alcohol. Be careful not to get it in your eyes. Rinse it out and shampoo as usual. Of course, you have to wash and tumble dry all your bedding and boil your hair supplies.

If you do take steps to treat a head lice infection it is unlikely that they will go away of their own accord. Different treatments have different regimes, which should be followed to achieve the best results. Any advice given to you by your pharmacist nurse or doctor should also be used.
If you use a medicated treatment you may be recommended to use two treatments one week apart – this is to make sure that any baby lice that hatch out of eggs that were not killed by the first treatment are killed by the second treatment before they grow into adults and lay more eggs. This is an important step to remember in the successful treatment of head lice infections.
