Description
option+ Lice Comb
option+ Lice Comb is a practical, non-medicated device designed to help remove head lice and their eggs (nits) from the hair and scalp. It uses closely spaced teeth to mechanically capture lice and nits, supporting a thorough grooming routine for people managing suspected or confirmed head lice. Because it does not rely on pesticides or chemicals, it can be used alongside common lice treatment products or as part of a regular checking routine, especially during outbreaks at school, daycare, camps, or within households.
Head lice spread mainly through direct head-to-head contact. Using a dedicated lice comb can help reduce the chance of missed nits after treatment and can be useful for periodic screening. option+ Lice Comb is intended for use on the scalp hair (including long, short, straight, curly, thick, or fine hair), and may be used for children and adults when handled carefully. For best results, use with good lighting and a systematic approach, sectioning hair and combing from the scalp outward.
Key features
- Mechanical removal: Helps lift and remove lice and nits without chemical ingredients.
- Fine-tooth design: Teeth are closely spaced to improve capture of small nits near the scalp.
- Reusable device: Designed for multiple uses when cleaned properly after each session.
- Family hygiene support: Useful for routine checks, follow-up combing after treatment, and household management.
How to use
- Start with clean, detangled hair. For easier combing, hair may be slightly damp or conditioned.
- Seat the person comfortably under bright light. Place a towel around shoulders if desired.
- Divide hair into small sections using clips or fingers.
- Place the comb teeth as close to the scalp as possible and pull slowly to the ends in one continuous stroke.
- After each pass, wipe the comb on a tissue or rinse in warm water to remove any captured lice or nits.
- Repeat methodically across the entire scalp, paying extra attention behind the ears and at the nape of the neck.
- Continue until all sections have been thoroughly combed.
Cleaning and care
- Rinse the comb under warm running water after use and remove debris with a tissue or soft brush if needed.
- Wash with soap and warm water, then rinse and dry completely.
- Store in a clean, dry place and avoid sharing between individuals unless thoroughly cleaned.
Important notes
Use with care to avoid scraping the scalp, especially on sensitive skin. If scalp irritation, sores, or signs of infection are present, consult a healthcare professional before combing. For effective management, follow public health guidance and treatment directions provided with any lice medicine, and check close contacts as recommended.
