Spring break is here ☀️

With sleepovers, travel, and kids spending more time together, there are more opportunities for head-to-head contact, which is how lice spread.

If you have a chance this week, it can be helpful to do a quick head check. Look especially behind the ears and at the nape of the neck.

If you’re not sure what you’re seeing or just want peace of mind, we’re always here to help.

Feel free to message us with any questions.

Not sure if it's lice, dandruff, or just dry scalp?

You’re not alone. This is one of the most common questions parents ask.

A quick tip:
• Dandruff flakes usually fall off easily.
• Nits (lice eggs) are attached to the hair shaft and usually need to be slid off with your fingers or a lice comb.

If you’re unsure what you’re seeing, feel free to send us a message. We’re always happy to help families figure it out.

Do you see them? 👀

Those little specks attached to the hair are nits (lice eggs).
You might also notice some dry skin mixed in there too.

The difference?
Dry skin brushes off easily.
Nits stay stuck to the hair shaft.

Can you spot the nits?

✨ Today’s Fun Fact from The Lice House ✨

Did you know… if you color your hair, your lice (and especially the nits) can take on the color too?

Today we saw some very fashionable bright pink nits thanks to a recent hair dye job 💗

Here’s the science-y part:
Nits are attached to the hair shaft with a glue-like substance. When hair is freshly colored, that dye can stain the nit casing making them appear tinted to match the hair.

Important to know:
Hair dye does NOT reliably kill lice or nits.
It may color them… but it won’t solve the problem.

A big thank you to our very gracious client who donated their lice and nits for educational purposes! 😉

If you ever spot something that looks like “colored specks” stuck to the hair and won’t slide off easily, it’s worth getting a professional head check.

It was such a great experience from start to finish!

What Are Lice Eggs (Nits) and Why Are They So Hard to Remove?

Nits are lice eggs laid by adult female lice. They’re tiny, oval, and usually yellow, tan, or white. Unlike dandruff, they’re firmly glued to individual hair strands close to the scalp and don’t just brush off.

Lice use a strong glue-like substance that bonds tightly to the hair shaft and resists water, shampoo, and most treatments. That’s why even after live lice are gone, nits must be carefully removed by hand.

If even a few viable nits are missed, they can hatch in 7–10 days and start the cycle all over again, making it seem like treatment “didn’t work.”

Thorough nit removal is key to fully eliminating lice.
