Have you or any of your kids had lice? Comment below! Remember you can order Brooklyn and Bailey’s LAST NEXT DOOR HERE: www.brooklynandbaileyshop.com 💋's -Mindy
I thought I did but I didn't (thank goodness!) I was in contact with a girl with lice (and I didn't know) so I just used lice shampoo for a week 😂 I'll remember to use this better method next time this happens
Remember, lice prefers CLEAN hair, if you get lice..don't feel bad, if anything it means you're clean. just make sure to get it out as soon as possible (to avoid anyone else from suffering😂)
Space Unicorn yes they do they like clean hair because it's the easiest too live I'm if the hair is dirty or oily the dandruff and oil makes it hard for them too cling onto the hair and lay eggs that'd why oil is used too remove them
What I do is: Buy rid shampoo, cover my hair and leave it for 15 minutes and then rinse. Drench my hair in cheap conditioner and comb with lice comb and rinse. DONE! It works every time!!
I do that a few times a week (whenever I get it) and me mum would brush through my hair with those comb things hours everyday. Let’s just say a lot of my time gets wasted but thankfully I haven’t had it for yearssss. Also we would use tea tree shampoo afterwards and lice hate the scent of it so they stay out of your hair. Then there for a few years I’d just use that to prevent from getting it again. Onetime I had my cousin come to my house for a sleepover while I was using the tea tree shampoo and we found out she had lice the next morning and we slept near each other so you’d think I’d get it but I never did and anyways we spent all day brushing through her hair and treating it. We almost got it all out before she went home.
I was literally a magnet for head lice when I was younger I got it about twice a year for like 5 years it was bad but it’s all good I haven’t had it for about 3 years now
Makayla Brannen I had it when I was 8 because I addiely had someone else's coat and I wear it home because our coats were the same this was before we had lockers
I had lice last year because my teacher forced me to go to the lost n' found to get a jacket to wear outside because I didn't have mine and it was cold outside
I had lice, and im sick of people saying DONT GET NEAR ME OR I'LL GET LICE TOO. Like people, lice dont jump head to head, they transfer when you touch hair/s and when you share pillows or things like that.
There is actually an easier way to do this (i have helped people delouse for decades (former hair stylist ... and no, we did not "treat" in salon). HEAT the olive oil, work thru thoroughly (you showed excellent technique for that :) ) Thne put disposable plastic cap on head (disposable shower cap will work). Heat towels in low oven ... Wrap head in very warm towel. Swap out as towel cools. do for at least an hour. Leave cap on hair overnight, shampoo out next day (initially use Dawn, then switch to kinder shampoo). Hair will feel like it has had the most incredible beauty treatment (it has). You don't have to repeat, unless you run into another contaminant down the line. works beautifully, and works on all hair types.
You are most welcome! we had to find something that worked well, especially for extremely long fragile biracial hair that was being repeatedly destroyed by the chemicals (and they were not effective, just destructive). my heart was going out to these beautiful girls & their mother (and they HAD to go to school & places where they came in contact with lice) i did some research on natural methods, even spoke with "old-timers" lol and this is the method we found that worked most efficiently, and was so very kind to hair & scalp
I apologize! i forgot to mention, AFTER shampooing first with Dawn dish liquid, then with shampoo, i heat full strength apple cider vinegar (test on inner wrist to make sure not too hot) then saturate from scalp down (give them washcloth to cover nose, smell is strong). leave on hair at LEAST 2 minutes .... it helps rinse all mucky residue from hair, makes super shiny, but ALSO causes any nits to turn loose! NOW come thru once again with the (cleaned) nit comb: VOILA!
My hairdresser dint know that trick....wish she did when my kids were young....we had loads of problems do to those parents who don’t do nothing about it....but you can’t keeps your kids home either...
Thank you for this video and especially stressing that it's No Body's fault-- just to focus on getting rid of them!!! I battled lice on my 4 kids a few years ago-- and Yes, the best thing that killed them was suffocating with oil!
Lauren Isn't Dead I got it since middle school like 2016 and still have it now 2019 sooo 4 years and its ruining my life and everything I don’t know what to doooo 😭😭😭🥵🥺😭😭😭
@@spsworld473 Please figure out how to get rid of it. like she said, it is gross to keep lice. Idk if you live in the US, but if you do we have complete access to medical treatments and will be helped in any case, just go to the emergency room. If you live in another country, there are other ways and this method that they used, I'm sure is available. Please get rid of that :(
@@beaanne5323 um Mindy just said that its not gross to have it, but gross to keep it, so its NOT gross. I used to have lice, and i tried everything to get rid of it, but somehow i tried this medical treatment that worked the second time :)
@@samahsiddiqui1688 Not sure if you didnt read my entire comment but I mentioned that Mindy said its gross to KEEP lice. If you had it and got rid of it then its completely fine! However, this person said they've had it for around 4 years and the amount of people that can spread to, and the amount of lice on their head could be dangerous. Maybe saying it out of disgust was bad on my part and I'm sorry if that offended you, but if you've had lice for 4 years, you need medical attention
@@spsworld473 I'm sorry hon. It can really take over people's life sometimes, and people think you're not getting rid of it because you're lazy, but I know that isn't the case. I hope you get relief soon.
I love how you don’t act like it’s something not normal that happens! Honestly thank you for making this video! It happens to almost everyone, and you people should not be afraid to talk about it! I have so much respect for you after this video!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼❤️❤️
I’m really pleased with the accuracy of this video. I have a lice removal company and this is pretty spot on. T only difference is we recommend putting conditioner in with the olive oil to make it a little easier to comb through the hair (which is a big help when you have kids with thick or curly hair). Great job guys!
I was the first viewer!!!!! I love you guys so so so much!! You were one of the main reasons why I love styling hair and want to be a cosmetologist! Love ya lots!! 😜😘
When I was little i had such long hair down to my knees and i caught lice. Mayonnaise and nix, and rid treatments and combing wasn’t helping. I legit had lice for a month because it was so much hair my mom wanted to cut it already. Until one day my old Cuban neighbor came and he went to the gas station and bought a gallon of diesel. Killed the little bastards in minutes.
First off that olive oil seems like A LOT A LOT of effort to get rid of lice that you can do in one day...my daughter caught them about 4y/o she was I think in 3rd grade, I got the RID I let it soak in her hair with a shower cap on it, it took me EIGHT HOURS to remove everything I’m talking I did little strand by strand she was such a trooper... LICE DO NOT JUMP they crawl or walk... another thing I did was quarantined her bedroom for 48hrs then went in and just vacuumed everything.. also when I was done picking out every single bug and knit I could find well that was in her hair I took a blow dryer on the hottest setting and ran that over the scalp AS MUCH as she could stand HEAT KILLS EXCESS LICE/KNITS.... you can also put hair ties, brushes, combs etc into a ziplock baggy and put it into the freezer for 36-48hrs I did ALL of this and she NEVER re-caught ANYTHING so 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️I didn’t wash my WHOLE HOUSE matter of fact I didn’t wash NOTHING not even her bedding 🤷🏻♀️ they cannot live off the head for 24hrs and I also wanted to mention if a louse say someone is infested and has had lice AWHILE that louse can get sooo fat from blood that it just falls off the hair now if your kid goes to daycare or kindergarten and has playtime or nap time on a carpet BOOM that fat louse that fell off the other kids head is NOW in yours so there’s pretty much a few ways to catch lice they can live on top of water in a pool for up to 6-8hrs or LONGER so your kid diving in and coming up where those lice are BOOM done they have em....I totally appreciate this video and for some the oil may be their only option seeing how the stuff at the stores are so expensive I get it the product IS VERY expensive but it didn’t damage my daughters hair...and another reason people are turning to different methods other than that RID is because they are saying the lice are hip to it now and it’s not working like it used to.... great video Mindy I’ve been DYING to tell someone on TH-cam some of my tricks that I did and I FINALLY got the chance!!!! Thanks for sharing and also the oil could be just a great preventative method too...also you can use tea tree oil on their coats shirts like put it in a spray bottle I used lotion in both my kids hair that was peppermint because MINT DETERS LICE they hate the smell........thanks for sharing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I actually love this becuase your story will also be helpful, thanks for sharing! I was just lost how you said a child who's 4 years old is in the 3rd grade. Lol okay anyway, thanks again for sharing !
mya ah haaaa no no 4y/o i meant it as FOURS YEARS AGO....sorry hun 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and I think it was even longer ago I think she was in 1st or 2nd and her hair was and still IS down the middle of her back and THICK......😩😩you’re very welcome I’m so so so glad MY story can be helpful to you I appreciate that!!! If my story can be helpful to AT LEAST one person I’m happy!!!
Found out I had lice today. Yay😧, well technically yesterday since its 3:34am now, but anyway, my mom and I went to get my haircut and the guy said I have lice so he couldn't cut my hair. He said they were just eggs tho. I was kind of freaking out but not full panic mode. He was explaining that "I'm not dirty" and that "they like clean hair". He told my mom to buy the rid. She asked him to check her too. She only had like one egg. She bought two lice kits. She checked my brother, he had none. This all happened in the evening. We followed the steps and with the shampoo and then the comb. She didn't really see anything until she checked the spot that the guy said. I checked her too. It's SOOO time consuming. Anyway, I'm glad it was not anything extremely severe
Love didn't get so fat that it falls off of the head. My little sister caught love but we didn't know it until one day she was sent h ime with a note from school. I checked her hard and it was infested. It was so awful. There were so many that when I brushed her hair with the hair they just fell out. Itbwas so gross. It took days to completely rid her off the lice.
very helpful! thank you!! people in my family have had lice before, and, let me tell you, my mom was NOT a fan of that! now "lice" is a banned word in our house because it stresses my mom out. and she doesn't let us wear hats that people outside of the family have worn! it's good to know from your video that lice are not a gross thing and that it is not too difficult to remove. I will definitely show this video to my mom later when we get lice and don't know what to do!!
Maddie Nakhla lol, I stress out when I hear or talk about lice. I have had it twice before. The third time I caught one immediately and never had it again.
Awww! Poor girl! ❤️❤️ However, she lucky she has an awesome aunt who always is ready to help out, stays calm, and then teach others these awesome tips! Love you Mindy! And thx for this tutorial! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Add a few drops of tea tree oil to your conditioner and you won't have to worry. I don't know if she shared that but I swear by it. I use to live in a high lice risk area and we never got lice.
When I was younger along with my little sister, she got lice a couple times from nap time in pre-k and I got it a few years later, but my mom found out (after trying RID and it not working too well) that mayonnaise on your head, under a shower cap, for 8 hours works AMAZINGLY!!! Anytime either one of us would get it, we would do one treatment of mayo and they were completely gone. However, I do absolutely HATE mayo now, lol. Maybe that's why?? Lol. Just another idea for any moms out there who may be having this problem as well.
Jennifer Gilman My sister, after visiting, called me one night to say her neighbor had given my neices lice. I read that spraying your hair/scalp with apple cider vinegar & water mix, first, then covering in mayo worked. So we both did it for preventative measure as we both have curly hair, my daughter's is long. Your right, if there was anything, it worked.
Lyzette Aldana I'm not sure who you're asking, but we did it 2x -both times for 6 hrs, one that day then again the next, because it was only the beginning. I had only seen 1 or 2 nits in my daughter hair before doing the treatment. We didn't have any other issues afterward.
Pretty much everyone has said and including me has done so many treatments Mayo, RID, straight up dish soap (dawn), and I still keep getting it, not now tho, but all I had to do is watch the best hair stylists and great for tips, to get rid of it. Thank you really, but I've used this trick before and it worked for years I didn’t have lice for like 2,3 years maybe, until I got it again, but I only did it for a week tho so, really mindy thank you soooooo much for reminding me for the next time i get it, which I hope it’s never❤️
ALSO, spraying one part apple cider vinegar and two parts water into the hair, will dissolve the "glue" that holds the eggs to the hair. Then cover your hair with the oil, and I personally like washing it out with one part baking soda, with two parts shampoo. I had headlice about two years ago, and this is how i got rid of it. :)
I had lice in 7th grade and I literally just floated in the gulf for a couple hours for 3 days. I know that won’t work if you don’t live by a body of salt water but you can fill a tub of water, add lots of salt and soak your head (submerge your scalp) and the salt water kills the lice and eggs. You have to comb your hair carefully and continually but I love having my hair brushed so I didn’t mind. It literally solves the problem, I had a really bad case but it was solved within the weekend.
love you guys so much, Mindy. thank you for EVERYTHING! missing all of you a little extra these past few days. it’s so hard not see you guys in person everyday. maybe i can get together with y’all soon 😉 LOVE YOU ALL! ~Anslee😘
namrata choudhary one day in 6th grade (I think) one girl said that she saw another girl scratch her head and everyone started to get away from her, it’s really sad but no body wants lice in their hair too and at the same day we were having a checkup at school ( like when they check if you have lice, how much do you weight, etc)
Uhh I’m so sick of lice!! I kept getting t from my friend and had no clue I found out I got it and I immediately used mayo over night I still had it I then used the nix treatments!! I got rid of it but then I hung out with my friend she told me she didn’t have it her mother checked and she didn’t have it so I believed her!! Well I got it again from her and this kept happening... it’s been 3 times now the 4th time I am sick of it it’s even worst now there’s actually a lot of bugs uhh it’s gross!! Well she slept over the other day I checked her hair and she was infested like it was soooo bad I didn’t even notice this eww it was like bundles of nits you could see there were so many because it was going towards the top of her head I checked and I treated her then I get a text from her mom saying you should’ve asked me for permission first to treat her!! Let’s understand I’m 13 years old and I’ve been dealing with this lice from her daughter for weeks and this is her second time getting treated uhh really either take care of your kid and treat her or I will.... like seriously!! I mean I get it but when I found it, it was 2 am and I was like freaking out I had my sister check my hair (had it again not as much as her) but if I hadn’t treated her and found it she would’ve given it to my whole family it was so much!! And it’s weird I see this in my recommended because I haven’t watched one video about like lol!!
@@viviangreen4923 her mother shouldn't of came at you like that , taking it that your ONLY 13 years old smh she is so lucky you are not my daughter but she should of thank you for treating her daughter that's so disgusting that she would want her daughter having lice like that gross
This video is very helpful. We just discovered that my boyfriend's daughter has lice but her scalp is too sensitive to use OTC lice treatments. I will be trying this out tomorrow once I make a trip to the store to stock up on the oil. Fingers crossed that I don't get it as well, as I have thick, coarse, long curly hair and it would be a pain to have to delouse my hair. I've had lice on 3 separate occasions in my life and I truly do not wish to repeat the experience.
i have lice right now and i had it ever since the beginning of the year last year and my mom tried everything but this time we are using the olive oil tip hopefully this works thnx mindy
I really like how y’all dealt with this, when people find out you have lice they treat you like a diseased animal, but it’s true, it happens, you can’t prevent it.
Once I got lice from someone In school when I was little and my mom did the same thing. Applying oil won't let the lice escape and it'll be easier for you to deal with lice and lice won't survive oil

That can literally burn off and damage your hair permanently 😬
I used to have straight hair but I caught lice and my mom used mayonnaise and it ruined my hair not I have damaged frizzy hair
That’s what my family did to me. It damaged my hair and it used to be nice and curly but now it’s really frizzy
Tea Tree oil helps repel lice. I spray my son's hair everyday.
Thank you! This video and all of the others are so helpful !!

She asked him to check her too. She only had like one egg. She bought two lice kits. She checked my brother, he had none. This all happened in the evening. We followed the steps and with the shampoo and then the comb. She didn't really see anything until she checked the spot that the guy said. I checked her too. It's SOOO time consuming. Anyway, I'm glad it was not anything extremely severe
Love didn't get so fat that it falls off of the head. My little sister caught love but we didn't know it until one day she was sent h ime with a note from school. I checked her hard and it was infested. It was so awful. There were so many that when I brushed her hair with the hair they just fell out. Itbwas so gross. It took days to completely rid her off the lice.
Sir Hugglebutts did you use it twice?
very helpful! thank you!! people in my family have had lice before, and, let me tell you, my mom was NOT a fan of that! now "lice" is a banned word in our house because it stresses my mom out. and she doesn't let us wear hats that people outside of the family have worn! it's good to know from your video that lice are not a gross thing and that it is not too difficult to remove. I will definitely show this video to my mom later when we get lice and don't know what to do!!
Maddie Nakhla lol, I stress out when I hear or talk about lice. I have had it twice before. The third time I caught one immediately and never had it again.
it is gross but not to get them but is to keep them
Maddie Nakhla my mom also hates the word lice and stresses about it too because I had it before 2 times
Awww! Poor girl! ❤️❤️ However, she lucky she has an awesome aunt who always is ready to help out, stays calm, and then teach others these awesome tips! Love you Mindy! And thx for this tutorial! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much! Love you too 💋's -Mindy
My mom told me if I get any lice at all I have to shave off all my hair cause nobody has time to do the nonsense of take it all out😬
I saw your profile pic on google
Charlotte Does Stuff am I famous now? Lol
Alexandra Ortega Haha 😂 I just thought you were my sis since you had the same profile pic as her 😝
Charlotte Does Stuff lol😂
when i was little i had it and that's what my mom did, shaved off all my hair😂
My head is itchy now
This was a huge help! I get lice every once in a while so thank you so much Mindy
Mitcheel Lockheart me too
Add a few drops of tea tree oil to your conditioner and you won't have to worry. I don't know if she shared that but I swear by it. I use to live in a high lice risk area and we never got lice.
omg same this is so helpful idk why
There are 6 kids in my family, and 4 of which are girls who have long hair, so whenever we get lice, it takes literally forever to get rid of!
Lily Grace Sameee
Lily Grace yup
Carmen Rose it's so annoying!!!
Lily Grace it is I had it before and my hair is long so it took my mom forever just to get it out of my hair.
Oh, ok.
I would run far far away from my house if someone in my family got lice😂
Vicki South lol same😂
definition of me 😂😂
When I was younger along with my little sister, she got lice a couple times from nap time in pre-k and I got it a few years later, but my mom found out (after trying RID and it not working too well) that mayonnaise on your head, under a shower cap, for 8 hours works AMAZINGLY!!! Anytime either one of us would get it, we would do one treatment of mayo and they were completely gone. However, I do absolutely HATE mayo now, lol. Maybe that's why?? Lol. Just another idea for any moms out there who may be having this problem as well.
Jennifer Gilman My sister, after visiting, called me one night to say her neighbor had given my neices lice. I read that spraying your hair/scalp with apple cider vinegar & water mix, first, then covering in mayo worked. So we both did it for preventative measure as we both have curly hair, my daughter's is long. Your right, if there was anything, it worked.
How many times did you have to do it ?
Lyzette Aldana I'm not sure who you're asking, but we did it 2x -both times for 6 hrs, one that day then again the next, because it was only the beginning. I had only seen 1 or 2 nits in my daughter hair before doing the treatment. We didn't have any other issues afterward.
Pretty much everyone has said and including me has done so many treatments Mayo, RID, straight up dish soap (dawn), and I still keep getting it, not now tho, but all I had to do is watch the best hair stylists and great for tips, to get rid of it. Thank you really, but I've used this trick before and it worked for years I didn’t have lice for like 2,3 years maybe, until I got it again, but I only did it for a week tho so, really mindy thank you soooooo much for reminding me for the next time i get it, which I hope it’s never❤️
What if they have curly hair that is kinda hard to detangle??
Miley Lopes straighten it first it makes life SO MUCH EASIER
Also if it’s straighten, then it’s heated. Which kills lices
Ikr 🤧
my sister had lice so the school also checked my hair but my hair was straight that week bc i did that on my curly hair and i had none
I used to have lice but I got it from some of my friends
(If anyone watching in 2020 March to April ) since quarantine I never have lice anymore
minnie said “it’s 1:40am” me *checks time* me: 0-0 how on earth is this possible ITS 1:40AM
ALSO, spraying one part apple cider vinegar and two parts water into the hair, will dissolve the "glue" that holds the eggs to the hair. Then cover your hair with the oil, and I personally like washing it out with one part baking soda, with two parts shampoo. I had headlice about two years ago, and this is how i got rid of it. :)
I dont have lice but this video helps somebody that has it thats nice of you.
Two words: Lice Clinic. They are amazing!!!
this is definitely helpful! having lice probably sucks! thanks mindy💕
My cousins just got rid of their lice but this is Super helpful
❤️ your videos
Plz do a video about dandruff n hairfall really need it...
Yikes!!! It’s that time of season
I had lice in 7th grade and I literally just floated in the gulf for a couple hours for 3 days. I know that won’t work if you don’t live by a body of salt water but you can fill a tub of water, add lots of salt and soak your head (submerge your scalp) and the salt water kills the lice and eggs. You have to comb your hair carefully and continually but I love having my hair brushed so I didn’t mind. It literally solves the problem, I had a really bad case but it was solved within the weekend.
This is going to be so helpful! I’ve had lice for over a year
Veronica Gallardo me too
This video will be super helpful if the time comes. Love you guys so much!!
use tea tree shampoo to help
Ingrid Cantrell yeah if someone around me has lice my mum just puts straight up tea tree oil in my hair😂
Same I have treee shampoo and conditioner from tea tree and I love it and it works
Me too I used that untill five weeks ago when I ran out. Had lice in pre k I am now in high school
I do too
That second image in the thumbnail sent shivers down my spine omg
I had lice so many times 😧 This video is very helpful ❤
i get lice every week and i have no idea how or where they are coming from i use a really good treatment but they just keep coming back
Mietta could be living in ur house
You should try washing or cleaning EVERYTHING cloth in your house, especially your sheets. That's where eggs and lice can live. Hope this helps!
Mietta try mayonnaise, it'll make your hair soft too.
Mietta me too
EXACTLY!!!! IKR
Best video ever. Taking the stigma away from having hair lice.
Watching this makes me itch !!!
(Even though i don't have any)
love you guys so much, Mindy. thank you for EVERYTHING! missing all of you a little extra these past few days. it’s so hard not see you guys in person everyday. maybe i can get together with y’all soon 😉 LOVE YOU ALL! ~Anslee😘
Loves you so much 💋's -Mindy
You're a better person than I am...I would have been like, sorry, not coming in my house. I wouldn't risk it with all those kids!
Yeah I mean I think the best thing would have been to cancel the trip and handle the lice at home then come out and visit
When u said lice the first time i scratched my head 😂😂
Oooh! Pretty cool tips & tricks!
3/12 people in my family have lice and I am one of those, this was helpful and great thank you ❤
I hate when ppl run away from the person who has lice! That's sad!
namrata choudhary one day in 6th grade (I think) one girl said that she saw another girl scratch her head and everyone started to get away from her, it’s really sad but no body wants lice in their hair too and at the same day we were having a checkup at school ( like when they check if you have lice, how much do you weight, etc)
Seriously! Me too ..
I know cause I can relate
namrata choudhary ikr it’s so sad
Love you Mindy💋
Love you 💋's -Mindy
hi I'm Zarah and I have it
and now I know how to get red of it
thanks
Amazing content!
Oh my goodness lice is the worst!! Love y’all💗💗
Love you so much 💋's -Mindy
It is Rylan I had it before it was so bad
When ever I am bored I watch you♥️
cute girls hairstyles!
Perfect timing! A family member has just caught lice! Thank you for stressing that it's not gross! Would baby oil work as well?
🤍 very helpful video 👏🏻
Where do you buy those applicator bottles... But Ima try this one
I love you guys!! I love that you guys give us so much advice.
You can also use vinegar and a comb and scrap them right out
Tbh I got lice and my whole fam made me feel like absolute crap. My bro wants me to chop all of my hair off. 😭
Uhh I’m so sick of lice!! I kept getting t from my friend and had no clue I found out I got it and I immediately used mayo over night I still had it I then used the nix treatments!! I got rid of it but then I hung out with my friend she told me she didn’t have it her mother checked and she didn’t have it so I believed her!! Well I got it again from her and this kept happening... it’s been 3 times now the 4th time I am sick of it it’s even worst now there’s actually a lot of bugs uhh it’s gross!! Well she slept over the other day I checked her hair and she was infested like it was soooo bad I didn’t even notice this eww it was like bundles of nits you could see there were so many because it was going towards the top of her head I checked and I treated her then I get a text from her mom saying you should’ve asked me for permission first to treat her!! Let’s understand I’m 13 years old and I’ve been dealing with this lice from her daughter for weeks and this is her second time getting treated uhh really either take care of your kid and treat her or I will.... like seriously!! I mean I get it but when I found it, it was 2 am and I was like freaking out I had my sister check my hair (had it again not as much as her) but if I hadn’t treated her and found it she would’ve given it to my whole family it was so much!! And it’s weird I see this in my recommended because I haven’t watched one video about like lol!!
Vivian Green that is scary
Nicolli De Mattos yeah it is and it’s gross
Wow, that’s disgusting and especially for her mum to get upset about you treating her, like did her mum want her to have lice?
Shampoo Shampoo i knoww
@@viviangreen4923 her mother shouldn't of came at you like that , taking it that your ONLY 13 years old smh she is so lucky you are not my daughter but she should of thank you for treating her daughter that's so disgusting that she would want her daughter having lice like that gross
This video is very helpful. We just discovered that my boyfriend's daughter has lice but her scalp is too sensitive to use OTC lice treatments. I will be trying this out tomorrow once I make a trip to the store to stock up on the oil. Fingers crossed that I don't get it as well, as I have thick, coarse, long curly hair and it would be a pain to have to delouse my hair. I've had lice on 3 separate occasions in my life and I truly do not wish to repeat the experience.
i have lice right now and i had it ever since the beginning of the year last year and my mom tried everything but this time we are using the olive oil tip hopefully this works thnx mindy
Love you guys thank you so much for uploading this
We love you too 💋's -Mindy
I really like how y’all dealt with this, when people find out you have lice they treat you like a diseased animal, but it’s true, it happens, you can’t prevent it.
I scratched my head throughout the whole video😂😂
Love you!❤️❤️
Love you guys!! ❤️❤️
We love you too 💋's -Mindy
I’ve always wondered if there has ever been a lice wildfire in your family. Nice vid 💕

Thanks so much Mindy! I get lice here and there so this is helpful! Your niece is cute!!💕💕😘💕💕💕😘and can you please do the same for dandruff? Thanks!
You're so welcome and that's a great idea! Love you 💋's -Mindy
Cute Girls Hairstyles thank you so much Mindy!! 💕💕😘😘💕💕
I was right. Mindy takes care of the girls hair
A metal flea conb from the pet store works amazingly as a nit comb and might be easier to find.
I had lice at age 5 and 10
It's been year's since the last time I had it now I'm 16
Love your videos so much!✨
Love y’all family y’all are sooo positive and have fun videos

You're so sweet! Love you 💋's -Mindy
Cute Girls Hairstyles awwwweee! Thank you! Xoxo!
Once I got lice from someone In school when I was little and my mom did the same thing. Applying oil won't let the lice escape and it'll be easier for you to deal with lice and lice won't survive oil
Hey mam my frnd has lits and nits so I have a doubt by using this schedule can she get rid from the lits and nits ☺
Love you and your hair videos❤️❤️❤️
Love you so much 💋's -Mindy
