25. What is the best way to comb out lice?

Choose a Quality Comb: Use a metal lice comb with closely spaced teeth.

Setup: Work in a well-lit area with a white towel or cloth around the person’s shoulders.

Prep the Hair: Detangle with a regular comb. Dampen the hair and, optionally, add conditioner to immobilize lice.

Section the Hair: Divide hair into four parts. Starting with one, further section it for detailed combing.

Comb Close to the Scalp: Lice are often close to the scalp. Comb from roots to ends.

Wipe & Rinse: After each pass, wipe the comb on a cloth and rinse in soapy water.

Repeat: Comb each section multiple times from different angles.

Follow-Up: Comb daily or every other day for at least a week.

Sanitize: Post-combing, clean the lice comb in hot water or disinfectant.

Stay Alert: Check hair regularly for two weeks for signs of lice or nits. For persistent infestations, consider seeking professional help.
