Thankfully, I have never had to deal with lice as a child or as a parent. But, I know not everyone is that lucky. The tip I have this week is that lice don't like tea tree oil. I've had a few parents talk about how, after multiple lice issues (because lice like some kids more than others), they started taking preventative action in the form of tea tree oil. You can find tea tree oil shampoo or you can add the oil to your hair products as you use them. My sister adds it to her kids shampoo once a week. A former boss of mine bought the shampoo with tea tree oil in it and had her kids use it every time they washed their hair. Both had success with fewer lice incidents. So, whether your kids keep having issues with lice or you're getting worried about it because it is going around school, consider trying this trick.
