    Headlice have come back
    I got headlice a while ago. I treated it, and after three weeks it was gone.
    But now, two weeks later, they have come back.
    Why have they come back and do I have to endure it three weeks again?
    My life is a living hell now, and I am thinking, getting rid of all of my hair and live as a baldhead is my only option. If I now get rid of the lice again, I fear they will just come back.
    Should I get bald?
    I am a girl!:(:confused:

    If you use Kwell or some other prescription treatment, and get all of the nits off the hair -- and then make sure that you've laundered your pillows, pillowcases, blankets, etc. they won't come back. But, you need to make sure you launder your blankets, pillowcases, etc in such a way that the nits will be killed!

    You usually have to treat your head after a 7 days again.

    Keep combing your hair,and try to figure out who you got them from.. usually through head to haed contact,or hair touching hair.

    There's nothing to be ashamed of,lice head love healthy hair and heads.
