Lice Busters

Wow, school starts and so do the Lice. They are not fun
for the kids or the family and friends who have to keep
cleaning their heads.


There are many remedies around and we get to view a
few working in Plant Essentials. Amongst the most
effective we have found is using a ready blended oil
combination like our Rosemary & Thyme scalp oil. This
blend contains Rosemary, Red Thyme, Neem &
Lavender Essential Oils, in a Apricot Kernal & Jojoba
base oil. Dampen the hair first and then massage the
oil into the scalp and hair and leave in overnight (put an
old towel on the pillow, so the oil doesn't go
everywhere.) and then shampoo it out in the morning.


Follow up with one of those little lice combs to get out
the dead bodies and any eggs. The scalp oil is quite
effective in killing the lice and eggs and makes the hair
very soft, making it very difficult for the lice to reattach.
After the initial treatment to remove the critters, you can
use our Rosemary Hair Mist as a preventative spray.
You simply brush through their hair each day.


The shampoo and conditioner you use will also play a
part, we have some Rosemary Herbal Shampoo and
Conditioner that are excellent in the ongoing prevention
of head lice.


All are available from PLANT ESSENTIALS, and the team
in the store are happy to answer any questions that you
may have.
