Head Lice In Men: Will Shaving It All Off Get Rid Of Lice?

You caught lice from your child and are now contemplating the quickest way to annihilate the darn things.

As a man, you have the option of shaving your head to get rid of lice and their eggs. Shaving your head is an effective way of treating lice provided you shave it all off completely. Lice only need 2mm of hair for them to walk around in, so unless you’re willing to go bald, the lice will stay put.

However, shaving off your luscious hair and going bald is unnecessary when there are other ways of removing lice that don’t involve you sacrificing your hair.

Combing

If you have a child with lice then you’re probably familiar with the fine-tooth comb used to extract lice. Lice-combing is an ancient way of removing lice. The reason it still exists is because it actually does work. A single stroke with a comb can catch many lice at once; a thorough combining session should remove them all. But removing lice isn’t enough – you have to extract their eggs too.

Nit-picking

The little metal lice combs do remove lice but they cannot catch and remove nits. Female louse ensure that nits (lice eggs) are safely attached to the hair by covering them with a sticky glue like substance. This sticky substance ensures that the eggs remain exactly where they were laid. The only way to remove them is to pick them out individually.
