Head lice are a common issue, especially among school-aged children. They are not caused by poor hygiene or an unclean living environment. Rather, they are spread through head-to-head contact with an infected person. This can happen during play, sports, sleepovers or other similar situations where kids are in close proximity. 

Despite their prevalence, there are still many myths and misconceptions regarding head lice, causing people to be secretive about their experiences. Unfortunately, this only leads to more stigma, shame and embarrassment that doesn't need to happen, as well as gives lice the upper hand in spreading to others.

My Hair Helpers is here to spread awareness and education to children, families and caregivers. We don't want people to feel badly if they end up with head lice; we want them to know that there are safe, effective solutions out there. Below are some of the best lice products that you can turn to when you’re faced with a head lice infestation. Remember, lice happen and they are a perfectly normal part of childhood. 

Foam Mousse 

My Mousse is a lightweight product that contains natural enzymes from yeast. It’s unique in that it loosens and dissolves the glue holding the nits (lice eggs) onto hair strands. Many products do NOT work on lice eggs, which is why the life cycle sometimes starts back over and people get re-infected.

My Mousse is a safe and effective way to address nits, and it has a pleasant mint scent that leaves the hair smelling great! We offer two convenient sizes to meet your needs: our 4 oz. Foam Mousse and our 8 oz. Foam Mousse. 

Dimethicone Lice Oil 

My Dimethicone Lice Oil is the product you’re looking for when you want to tackle head lice head on! It’s safe, effective and made from natural ingredients like dimethicone. If you don’t know much about dimethicone, it’s a type of silicone that is present in many skin, hair and personal products. Experts consider it to be safe with few to no side effects as it mostly sits on top of the skin and hair.

Furthermore, dimethicone doesn’t harm head lice in the way that pesticides and insecticides do. Rather, it traps, slows down and essentially smothers the lice, stopping them in their tracks. When you use this product along with the Foam Mousse, you have ample protection from lice infestations. 

Nit Comb for Lice Removal 

My Lice Eliminator Comb works on all lice, including nits and super lice. We love this comb because it is specially engineered to remove nits and lice from all hair types. It features long, micro-grooved stainless steel teeth that drag out the smallest nits that ordinary combs miss. Plus, the comb has an anti-slip grip to provide control and comfort, protecting your child’s gentle scalp.

Our combs are sold in packages of one, two or three, and they can be cleaned and sanitized for repeated use. For the best results, we recommend using our lice comb with our mousse, dimethicone oil, and shampoo and conditioner. 

Mint Shampoo and Conditioner 

When you want to keep your child lice-free, we highly recommend using our mint shampoo and conditioner. These products won’t just keep your child’s hair clean but also lice free! The peppermint in the shampoo and conditioner are what send lice running in the opposite direction as they hate the smell of mint! You can use these products daily as part of your routine, and your child’s hair will be soft, clean and protected. And if you do end up with head lice, don’t panic! Turn to our lice products to take control of the infestation. 

Mint Detangling Spray 

Another way to remain lice-free forever is by using our Mint Spray. This spray detangles the hair by loosening knots while leaving it with a fresh, minty smell. Remember, lice despise the scent of mint, so it won’t take them long to realize that your child’s hair is not where they want to be! We recommend using this product after washing your child's hair with our shampoo and conditioner and combing it through with a wide-tooth comb. Your child’s hair will be soft, smooth and minty, but most importantly, lice free!
