Description
Directions
Works by suffocating and dehydrating lice. This product coats the louse which stops it from exchanging gases and moisture with its environment, leading to suffocation. It also works to remove a louse’s protective lipids from its outer shell causing it to dehydrate rapidly.
Step 1 – Quitnits Head Lice Spray Treatment:
- Release the trigger lock and pump two or three times to prime the spray head on the first use. Hold the bottle about 10cm from the hair, apply two pumps while lifting the hair in sections to ensure the product reaches the scalp. Repeat the application until the hair is wet with product.
- Massage through to the scalp ensuring all of the hair is treated. Leave in the hair for 15 to 20 minutes before shampooing. Normally one treatment is all that is required but if lice are detected after inspecting the hair repeat the treatment. Repeat in 7 days if necessary.
- For up to 8 hours continued protection apply a few light sprays on the hair, there is no need to wet all of the hair for adequate protection.
- Use daily when head lice are prevalent.
Step 2 – Quitnits Egg Removal Shampoo:
- Wet the hair thoroughly, apply a small amount of shampoo to the palm of the hand and massage into the hair well.
- Rinse the hair and repeat the process.
- For stubborn eggs leave the shampoo in the hair for up to 15 minutes before rinsing. A regular conditioner may be used if required. For best results, comb hair with a nit comb.
