hey this may be a stupid question but if i got headlice with my dreads i would have to shave them of to get rid of the head lice yes? .peace.
it's best practice to just not get them there in the first place, it's hella difficult to get rid of them
Head Lice Cure Take one (1) jar of creamy peanut butter and slather on hair/scalp, covering every strand. Place plastic wrap over hair slathered with PB. Leave on 3 hours. After 3 hrs wash hair and rinse with vinegar, use a vinegar rinse for 3 days to kill nits. This will not only get rid of head lice without posioning yourself or your kids, it will leave your hair the most beautiful then it's ever been. Blessings sh
ACV (Apple cider vinegar) soak might work, leave it in for an hour or a few hours or something. And I agree with Jason ^^
There will be TONS of products for head lice in your local pharmacy that kill lice without the use of a comb.
There is a product called delacet that can be used on dreads and normal hair,whether it works or not I dont know though as thankfully Ive not had to use yet!! http://www.delacet.com/
