Question 1

Am I supposed to use every day?

Accepted Answer

We use it every day. There have been multiple "lice scares" at school this year and my son has never gotten lice. This may be true true and unrelated but I bought the large bottle and plan to use this throughout his school years (and for camp over the summer). The formulation smells nice but is not overpowering and is gentle on his hair.

Question 2

Can I use it for a second grad girl? Does it really help to remove the lices?

Accepted Answer

It will not remove lice. I use it on my second grader to keep lice away. Apparently they do not like the smell. But the only way I know of to actually remove lice is to shampoo with lice shampoo and comb, comb comb.

Question 3

what frequency have u guys found effective for prevention of lice? daily or something else ?

Accepted Answer

I make my kids (8 & 5.5) use it at once a week, and once a week they also use my "homemade" mixture of Suave Rosemary & Mint with a few drops of added Tea Tree oil.  We got Lice from relatives in March and then we have been re-exposed by them several time (with the relatives still having active lice for 6 months) and with our couple of times a week treatments we stayed lice free.  When I found out our cousins still had it after 6 months, we washed with this daily for a whole week. Also if you know of someone who has it, use the HAIRSPRAY version of this and plaster your kids hair, the live lice DO NOT like "dirty" hair or these natural oils found in Fairy Tale. We will NEVER stop using this product! As a 33 year old woman with very long hair, I also wash with it once a week.

Question 4

Is getting the conditioner with the shampoo worth it? What's the point of the conditioner? Will a good conditioner suffice instead?

Accepted Answer

I don't think you need the conditioner. I would just get my regular conditioner and make sure I washed my hair every other day in the Shampoo
