How to Do Quick and Easy Lice Checks at Home

By KidSnips Chicago January 12, 2018

It’s cold outside and lice like to be warm on a head and near their blood source. While there is no specific season for lice, we have seen an increase of cases during this winter break. People tend to travel more and visit friends and family over the holidays. Lice get passed around easily as people hug one another. Direct “head to head” contact is how lice are spread from person to person.

Typically, lice don’t cause a lot of itching unless they have been multiplying for a while or the person is allergic to their bites. One could have lice and never feel itchy. If you suspect you or your loved ones may have been exposed and aren’t sure, give any of our 8 KidSnips salons a call for a Lice check appointment.

KidsSnips also carries Lice Prevention products and Lice removal kits for your convenience and peace of mind.
