The Nit Free Terminator Lice Comb is an absolute lifesaver when dealing with lice!

The size is perfect, allowing for thorough combing, even through long, thick hair.For the price, it’s a great value, offering professional grade effectiveness without the need for harsh chemicals. When our daughter’s classmate brought lice to the classroom, this comb made the process so much easier, gliding through her long hair smoothly while catching even the tiniest nits.If you need a reliable, skillfully engineered lice comb that truly works, this one is worth every penny! Highly recommended for families looking for a safe, effective solution!

Here's my horror story: After a "super-lice"¹ outbreak at my daughter's school, and my daughter catching it, we spent a lot of money and time on so many different products to rid her of this horrible pest. We bought almost every type of over-the-counter lice treatment (most of which had a "lice and nit comb" include). My daughter has very long and THICK hair. The lice/nit combs included in the kits were almost always plastic, and even if they were metal, they were still very cheaply made. Needless to say, each and every one of them broke upon first use. So then I went to our local beauty store and bought a $10 lice comb they had that looked more sturdy and had the prongs very close to each other (so it'd hopefully pick up everything). Problem was, they would not glide through my daughter's thick hair, not even in small sections with lot of conditioner. By this point we are months into the process and while she'd be good for a few days, it only took a week or so and she was infested again. I was at my wits end and started to worry about all the chemicals being continuously used on her (not to mention the damage it was doing to her hair). I started doing the natural coconut oil and tee tea oil remedy (Google it if you want directions). It worked great and the time between infestations was longer, but she still had them coming back. After a lot of research I realized she's not re-catching the lice, but that all these methods just killed the actual full grown or baby lice, not necessarily the eggs, and those stupid cheap combs included weren't pulling them out. So we were killing most the lice, but week or two later when those tiny eggs hatched we had an infestation again. I ordered this comb based off reviews and having tried basically everything else. I was hesitant that this comb would be like the one I purchased at the beauty store and not comb through her hair, but just get stuck and yank out her hair. HOWEVER, once I got it, I ran it through her DRY hair and it ran through smoothly, which was a surprise considering how close each prong was to another. So I was very hopefully. I then did the apple cider, coconut oil, and tea tree oil method (Google for directions, the apple cider loosens the "glue" type substance on the eggs). I then used this comb to go through her coconut oiled hair and not only did it glide through smoothly not matter what angle I was combing from (down, right, left, up) but it caught the eggs, nits, and tiniest, newly hatched baby lice (we're talking so small I could only tell they were there by wiping on paper towel and using magnifying glass). I also made sure to start at the very root of her since the eggs attach near scalp. It was amazing (and gross) what this comb took out. I let the oil treatment sit over night (as recommend, and btw coconut oil is an amazing conditioning treatment for hair), and did one more combing in morning, althought there wasn't much left after first combing. It has been months now and she's FINALLY lice free with no re-infestation since the treatment using this comb! God, what a relief!!! What I realize is, all other combs weren't simply catching all the eggs/nits/tiny newly hatched lice, which was the problem. No matter what treatment you decided to use (although I suggest all natural) a very thorough combing to catch the eggs/nits is crucial! And this comb is the only one that works at grabbing and taking out everything, hence you won't then have future breakout in week or two. Don't waste your time and money with any other combs, they aren't designed like this one! I wish I would have used this one in the first place. Would've saved a lot of money, stress, time, and my child suffering. I can see why the professional lice/nit removal places that charge $$$ use this product. A+ review from me!

BEST COMB EVER! This is absolutely the comb you need! Ended up throwing out the combs that came with the lice kits once we received these terminator combs. I purchased one for each child, in different colors.. I ran this through my kids' hair, section by section, EVERY DAY for 10 days until we were SURE we were rid of all of the eggs. The lice died off and were removed early on, but it was these stubborn eggs white circular and teeny), that adhere to the hair strand that make the lice removal a process, and not a one-time event. Even tho the product we used (RID) said it killed both lice and eggs, this MEANS that the eggs that are remaining on the hair strand are dead, and NOT that it removes them from the hair strand. I did not trust that these remaining eggs were truly dead, and viewed them as a threat to a future infestation!! After you go through this ordeal, you will have "lice phobia" for your remaining days, so I was going to continue down this removal process until COMPLETE ERADICATION was achieved! .CLEANING THE COMB:Be sure to clean the comb after every single comb through (one-inch sections at a time). After you have combed through the hair, if you hold the comb up to the light, you can see just how many eggs the comb removed from one pass - you will be amazed. And this is after I had used the nit comb that came with the RID kit had come out clean!HOW TO CLEAN THE COMB: The one frustrating thing about this comb was that it was difficult to clean, only because of its high-quality, long, steel teeth, that do not open up easlly to remove the eggs. So this is how I did it.I used a pair of my dark-colored nylon running pants. After each comb through, I would hold the comb between my running pants and rub down the comb, in one direction, and on each side of the comb, until I was able to wipe the comb clean. It will take several swipes. To confirm that you have removed all of the eggs from the comb, hold comb up to the light. If there are still a few stubborn ones remaining, you can use your fingertips and strum along the side of the comb to try to open up the teeth to get to the eggs out. But beware of sore fingertips if you use this method for too long! I discovered the nylon pants method only after I couldn't do the fingertip removal method any longer! Also, you can tap hard down onto a hard surface to remove some of the eggs.A FEW OTHER TIPS:Get expedited shipping method - it's not that much more and it is worth it!Be sure your kids' hair is free of all tangles before using the comb. Don't put leave-in conditioner in either before you use the comb. It makes removing the eggs harder. If you do this, it won't be a painful experience for your child. You can use this comb on wet or dry hair.Expect for this to be an day and evening affair. I had the kids pick out some movies to watch, we popped popcorn, and tried to make the most out of an otherwise miserable situation. I set my kids' study lamps up behind them so that the light shone down directly onto the area of their hair I was working on. Good lighting is essential! . As I spent hours combing, they watched movies and we had lots of talking time too!Good luck - it is something I never want to go through again for the rest of my life, but I hope that my words have helped some other parent out there that is dealing with the same thing that I dealt with. You can do it. Diligence, good lighting, daily checks, this comb, and the lice removal product of your choice - and you can do it too.
