Lice are invasive. If they are in your kid’s hair now, they are likely in your bedding, pillows, furniture, etc. Don’t worry about offending the mother, take care of your family, and tell her.
Put some vinegar ( not a lot) in the hair conditioner! And no lice will come…
Tell the mum she should understand cause it was my children she will not be playing with her
My kids when they were smaller got lice kne from the nebour kids so i put tea tree oil in my shampoo on a regular basis right in the shampoo bottle do that so your using it during every single shampoo it will not hurt your hair using on regular basis and you should never have lice I used it everyday in my shampoo with my kids when they were small and I never ever got lice after that
Have a "spa day " And treat the child. everyone gets a wash and style.
Tea tree oil helps keep lice away. U can put it in shampoo and conditioner.
You need to tell her mom and dad that she has it and they can’t play together no more till it is gone . That is bad
Some people are just lazy and dont care. I remember being in public school and there was a family that had one person with headlice every month for all of public school!!!
I dont see Any other way but To have a conversation with The other parent.
If untreated for long periods of time Maybe somebody needs to reach out or report her To social services.
That is child neglect.
It’s not hard To Get rid of if you Stay on it.
Smh!
That’d be a NO!
And a call to DFACS because apparently the best friend is not being properly cared for.
Spray her hair everyday with pure tea tree oil and pure peppermint oil.
Fill a Spray bottle with water and add the pure oils. Worked on all 4 of mine and they never had them.
Hairspray works great also for bed bugs
Talk to the mom. It’s not fair to the children nor the school or you for that matter.
To heck with offending.
Check her or have fun starting all over.

Kids are smarter then you think. Especially when it comes to things like this. I would put a 5gallon bucket in the tub. And blow dry her on high. They hate heat.
To me head lice and bed bug our a pain in the ass.
suggest not getting the lice treatment just get light blue or light green mouth wash soak for 1 to 4 hours in a towel the dark mouth wash does not work
Offend the Mom. Friend and family could be spreading lice to others. A health concern. Plus, lice should be reported to health department?
If that girl has given your daughter head lice before I’m sure her mother knew it so I would ask her mother and I would have no qualms about it
Sorry but nits (lice) are a fact of life and you really can’t escape them. My daughter got them even in high school!! Always treat three days after first time to catch as many eggs as you can
I would have advised her mom how to dis infect the home to get rid of lice. I lived thru this at one time …with a relative. It’s nerve wracking.
Sainsburys detangle spray put her hair up and spray it my kids only had them once three girls
You can add tea tree oil to shampoo and a mixture of listerine with water on dry hair will help prevent this issue
Mention the issue to the mom.The worst it can do is the mom stops her child from being at your house
Try letting them play outside only and make sure your daughter’s hair is Up and Under a hat
This mom would rather have lice in the household then offend? Offend away !! Mom’s household’s well-being comes first. Why does this child always have lice? Eeewww, maybe CPS should be involved?
I am sorry you need to explain it to her. What mom could not know her child had lice. She should be advised or daughter cannot go and play with her.
Fairy Tales has a wonderful preventative spray. And they have treatment kits. It is amazing stuff. It isn’t harsh. And it smells good.
Tell the girls mum she has nits in as a nice way as possibly
Do not use tea tree on your dog if it gets the lice also. Tea tree oil will kill a dog.
Lice perfer clean heads clean hair is easier to hold on to
It’s not offensive, when it can cause a legit health issue. I would talk to the other parent, and ask if they need help with getting rid of the lice. I would offer any suggestions and anything I had left over. I would then go to the store and buy all the supplies for them. I would do this, because you never know what a family is going thru, and people struggle…I know I have/am.
They make a spray sold near your kids hair products called lice shield
Tell the mom you have been dealing with lice for 3 weeks and have no idea where it came from so for now you are saying no to playdates.
Did u know there is a lice clinic in Torrance
Be offensive, tell the mom the reason, then have pity on a young girl who is not taken care of properly.

Grease up ur daughters hair really greasy and put it up
Rosemary spray or fairy tail spray ( sell at cvs) works great ! Also tie her hair up
I had this with my granddaughters everytime they came for custody visits with Dad we had to delice them in the end said not putting up with it and sent a bottle over and told Mum to do her hair as she obviously not dealing with. If it had been school time I would have asked them to also talk to Mum. My new daughter in law always checks girls hair every night and uses conditioner and nit comb every Friday
We went through this… I finally said… I need to check your heads first. They saw no problem with it.
Fairy tails works wonders, they also have a shampoo and a spray for hair, it’s around $12-$13
Use hair spray and gel
A generous amount
Talk to the mother, tell her if she can’t afford the treatment, you’ll help her out, if you can afford. I think its the problem sometimes of no money.
You need to politely talk to the parents, either that or look at the child’s head before you let them inside the house.
Honesty is the best policy, you need to put your big girl b panties on and confront the mother in a caring way, you need to bake a cake and bring it to her so you can see the living conditions, peek over her shoulder at the door, have a talk with her about how you adore her daughter and are talking to her out of concern for everyone’s health. Be careful she might have it to most likely does. Sometimes people just don’t know the whole regiment of getting rid of life like getting rid of lice like spraying their cars and a stuffed animals any stuffed animals blankets and everything else that has to be done all at once he also has to be done all at once and so it never really gets rid of it really gets rid of it that might be the case here she might be just a little bit ignorant it’s a little bit ignorant to the fact of how to do it correctly to do it correctly just open your mouth talk to her and I’ll talk to her in a caring way before you let her kid come back over before you let her kid come back over you shouldn’t have to endure that and it’s not fair to any of your children either it’s not fair to any of your children either
Twice??? Once can happen to anyone but….wow what a pain.
NOPE! She will get it again if they aren’t retreating the head after 2 weeks and bagging and cleaning everything in the house.
Put moth balls about three in hair underneath shower cap kills eggs as well
If the girls are really good friends then there should be no problem talking to the other mother
Add tree tea oil like 3 drops to your shampoo and conditioner they hate it
No way, wouldn’t even play that game again. Don’t hurt anyone’s feelings, just say no friends until covid is completely over.
Foot down. Be sure other mom knows. To me that’s like ringworm. Sorry.
Tea tree oil shampoo, hair up and tea tree oil spray
Ask her mom if you can help by getting her some nix ultra ( we battled lice for nearly a year and this was the only stuff that worked) or something.
Been there did get prescription for lice from dr
91% rubbing alcohol. Apply straight to the scalp and hair leaves in for 12 hours. Wash rinse and you’re good.
Talk to the girl’s parents. Tell them your kids had lice, but don’t accuse them of giving it to your family. Maybe they’ll check their kids.
When she comes home put tree tea oil in conditioner and soak her head! Gone if she got any
Youbcan but lice shampoo at drug stores. Doesn’t cost much.
Lady please. Tell the mom about the lice. Why you wont tell her??? That problem need to be heard. Lady please get some Balls tell her.that means be Bold as a lion.hell you acting like a snail. What you afraid of??? The lice ? Call DHR. Call Biden
Don’t worry about offending someone when you are looking out for your family.
If you can’t bring yourself to ask her about it just go to the park?
State the facts.tell the mom what to get to was h their hair.
Arrange a picnic at a playground and surreptitiously check the girls head.
I would absolutely not go through it again. I would have to say no visiting.
No. Not until child and environment receive treatment.
You are in charge of your children. Right? You protect your children from harm. Right? So what is your question ?
are you kidding me? this is when you just say no

Dont let that kid back until her mom cleans her head up
Make sure she doesn’t have lice Ur right ,don’t let her talk in to feeling sorry for her 
Go talk to the mother! She may need help in learning how to avoid getting it or treating it.
DCFS needs to get involved. Not okay to let her kid to live with lice

It’s best you talk it over with her mom,before you let your daughter go over to her friend.
Just ask her. If her child had it she should understand your concern!
Offend her mom👍 she needs to clean these bugs off of her daughter !!!
You are using lice shampoo too and actually goin thru the hair itself to remove the eggs and lice? I had a friend give it to me too when I was a kid… A lot. I’d be honest with the mom and say you don’t wanna go thru that again. Keep all kids outside with hair up and try to social distance that should help… If they can’t get too close then there shouldn’t be any spreading it. But don’t be afraid to offend when it comes to your family.

I know the other mom knows shes has to take care on her end point blank
Um, truth. That momma knows about the lice. You can offer to treat it.
Talk to her parents, and let them know they should handle it, and when it’s handled then she can hang out
I don’t think you would offend. offer them knowledge on cleaning and help get rid of them. I believe they would be thankful for help.
Talk to her mom and advice her what to used to help her daughter clean from lice
I think i would call her mon and explain this to her. Maybe she doesnt even know about these things
Stay away from.lice. Too.much trouble!)
You need to teach her mom how to rid them, she may not know!! No judgement!

Call her parents and tell them to get their shit together. That it’s unacceptable and disgusting.
I agree. Getting rid of lice is very time consuming!!!
Not until she is completely over it
Really. I’d just ask!!! Gosh, who would not want to give it to uour friends or be offended. I sure wouldn’t be!!
The lice don’t like the peppermint smell.
I feel bad for you, thats a hard one.
Put alittle tea tree oil in your shampoo and get some for your friend
Explain to the mom like you are explaining it to us. A real women should understand
Word is NO
Gotta think of your family first
