Myth #1: Lice Only Infest Dirty Hair

Contrary to popular belief, lice do not discriminate based on cleanliness. Whether hair is meticulously groomed or unkempt, anyone can fall victim to lice. Lice spread through close contact or by sharing personal items, rendering personal hygiene irrelevant to infestation.

Myth #2: Certain Hair Types Are Immune to Lice

No hair type is immune to lice. Whether someone has straight, curly, thick, or thin hair, they are equally susceptible to infestation. Lice are equal opportunity parasites, infesting individuals regardless of their hair texture or thickness.

Myth #3: Lice Can Jump or Fly

One of the most persistent myths is that lice can jump or fly. In reality, lice can only crawl and move swiftly through hair strands. Transmission occurs primarily through direct head-to-head contact, highlighting the importance of proximity rather than airborne transmission.
