To apply: Shake bottle well. Apply approx. 50ml of the oil, depending on hair length to dry hair, until completely covered. Leave on for approximately 15 mins. Using a fine-tooth comb carefully section hair and remove as many eggs and lice as possible. During this comb-out step the oils will assist to suffocate any live lice. Where possible leave the oil on for one hour in total or longer. Natural plant oils offer additional conditioning benefits to the scalp and hair.
To remove: prior to introducing water, massage some holistic hair shampoo through-out the scalp & hair. Add the water to activate the lather. This allows the shampoo to more effectively remove the residual oil. Following the shampoo, apply the Holistic Hair leave-in Herbal Finishing Rinse to loosen any remaining eggs for the final comb-out. As a preventative measure and to help avoid future infestation use the Holistic Hair Shield Spray on a daily basis.
