Dread Maintenance

Thanx, congrats on defeating the bugs!! soaringeagle said:

get neem seed oil too
the alcohol vinager neem seed oil did the trick for me

wash everything treat your furniyure
use enough alcohol that the fumes are overwhelming so breath thru a tube or wrap it up but u should only need it on 1/2 an hour not overnight
between treatments teatree and neem seeed oil appliesd to the scalp

the goal is sufocation they gotta be breathing alcohil fumes with not much air
so it needs to be enough to nearly overwhelm u so thats why u need to wrap up or breath thru a tube so u get clean air while denying them any

thats not easy when u gotta treat a beard too..lol
so i just sucked in tiny tiny breathes and mostly tried not breathing fir 20 minutes..lol

lice a dreadlocks worse nightmare

Dread Maintenance

Hi, I have been at war with the lice for almost two months. I am commited though, I have been putting rubbing alcohol on every night after shower wrapping locks in a bag, all night some nights, anywhere from thirty minutes to hours other times. then I slather my head with coconut oil, tea tree oil, eucalyptus oil, ( I have heard rosemary oil is good too), sometimes I use diluted listerine, and leave it on.Now atleast once a day I boil a pot of water and dip my dreads. then once a day I go through my head and pick out any eggs. I don't know where these things came from, but they are not taking my hair or getting on anyone elses's head. I was doing these procedures every other day or three days, and not delousing my head in some way every day, well they would be gone for a day and then full force, so for the next month this will be my routine until I boil my hair and nothing comes out. Good luck let me know how long it takes you!
