How Can Head Lice Be Treated?

Hi, I have headlice I’ve had them for over a year and can’t seem to get rid of them. I don’t go out and always try my best to have my hair so you can’t see them. But my hair is dyed red so it’s so visible. I’ve tried everything from dying my hair to over the counter treatment. Please help me it’s starting to get to a point I want to shave my hair because I’m so embarrassed about it.

Hello,

I can suggest you spinosad it is effective in one use and doesn’t need nit removal comb because kills lice and nit. Look for source and try not to have contact to prevent reinfestation.
