What do lice look like?

:disgust:

I saw a very tiny bug that looked like it had wings of some sort when I was trimming some hair... uhhh... I shower twice a day, no way I have lice...

Look in the mirror with a magnifying glass. See the white things in your hair. That's what lice look like. 🙂

soap and water doesn't kill/prevent lice.

hmmm

Adult lice are six-legged, wingless insects 2-4 mm long. They have translucent grayish-white bodies, and look a bit like a grain of rice with six legs. Their heads have two tiny eyes (too small to be seen without magnification) and two small antennae (usually visible).

Just scared the piss outta me to see a bug suddenly appear next to a pile of hair...

noooooo I don't have lice, I'm convinced the bug just flew down from somewhere and landed and it looked like it came outta the hair... it had wings and was very tiny, not lice.

No lice aren't that big, they look like tiny peices of dust moving.

my sons had it about 2 years ago, grosses thing I ever went through. I had it too. So nasty.

btw.. clean hair is the reason you get lice.. so just because you have lice doesnt mean you are dirty. infact they hate dirty hair because its oily and they cant grip onto the hairs so thats when they jump into the hair of a clean head.
