Suggest Home Remedy For Lice?
Hi I have just found out i have head lice! :( My head has been itching for about 4 days and i think thats how long i have had them! :( At the mo I have lice shampoo stuff on my head (but since there wasnt enough, I used all that was in the bottle and some very stinky shampoo! ) What other homemade remedies could I make? No shops are open today so I need to make something from home... Please help!! :(

You can try the following:
1.Crush raw garlic and mix it with some oil or lemon juice and apply it to the scalp and hair and leave it for 1-2 hours covered with a shower cap. Wash hair thereafter.
2.You can also try neem leaves paste which is a natural insecticide or a Neem based shampoo.
3.Apply curd (slightly sour) to your hair for 1 hour before washing.
Hope this will help you to get rid of lice.
