VERY IMPORTANT:

The correct and thorough application of Nit-Enz Organic Shampoo is absolutely crucial to the success of the head lice treatment. Follow the steps below for best results.

1. Apply a test patch of shampoo on the back of the neck and leave for 5 minutes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Through out the application take care to avoid contact with the eyes. If contact occurs rinse thoroughly with water.

2. Wet the scalp and hair with warm water and pull back away from the face.

3. Squirt Nit-Enz onto the palm of your hand and smear the shampoo from the hair line above the forehead backwards towards the back of the head. Repeat again for each side above and behind the ears working the shampoo back towards the back of the head. Imagine you are herding the head lice away from the face towards the back of the head and neck.

4. Use your fingers to massage Nit-Enz shampoo down onto the scalp, beginning at the hairline and working backwards towards the back of the head. Ensure the shampoo thoroughly covers every bit of the scalp including behind the ears. Gently check the folds behind the ears to ensure no head lice are hiding there.

5. Apply more shampoo to the back of the head and massage into the scalp working your way downwards towards the neck. Check the neck to make sure head lice are not leaving the scalp.

6. Smother all of the nit eggs with Nit-Enz and they will go white which means they will no longer hatch. Head lice feed off the scalp and lay their eggs as close to the scalp as possible. Concentrate on smothering the scalp, and the hair within 5cm of the scalp.

7. Apply Nit-Enz to the rest of the hair and work through with your fingers ensuring it is fully coated and bundle up into a shower cap.

8. Ensure the shower cap elastic sits flat on the skin to seal in the pine vapour. Make sure it covers the ears and the whole hairline including the nape of the neck. Double check to ensure no head lice have escaped onto the neck or shoulders.

9. Leave Nit-Enz Organic Shampoo in for at least 20 minutes.

10. Comb out tangles and thoroughly run a nit comb through the hair from scalp to hair tips while over a basin. Wash away extracted head lice and eggs. Rinse the hair thoroughly with warm water and condition as normal.

11. Section off the hair while still wet and comb thoroughly with a fine tooth nit comb from scalp to hair tips. Dispose of head lice and nit eggs pulled out on the nit comb. Dip the contaminated nit comb into a container of warm water with a squirt of Nit-Enz in it. Dry off with a tissue between each run of the comb until no more head lice or eggs can be found.

12. Repeat this process twice more on alternate days. Ie: leave one day, repeat next day.

13. To permanently avoid re-infestation continue using Nit-Enz Organic Shampoo as a normal shampoo at least twice a week. Leave in for at least five minutes and condition as normal. Head lice eggs hatch every 7 days but ongoing use of Nit-Enz (as directed) breaks the head lice life cycle and prevents re-infestation.
