Prevention for Head Lice: Tips for braiding and other hair styles.<\/h4>\n

Braids<\/h5>\n

Youtube has an immense number of videos that tutor you on how to braid. For my youngest children, I learned how to do the Elsa braid. For my oldest which is always playing spots a regular french braid. But I also learned how to do a fishtail braid for more elegant days :-). Braids are great to tuck the hair in and increases your changes of head lice staying away.<\/p>\n

If you are good at it, you can also start doing side braids that end in a pony tale. Start the braid on both sides of the hair, meet at the middle back and tie it up! If you feel even more fancy, you can always start the braids on both sides and finish at the end on a bun.<\/p>\n

You can also try to do a bun-braid and make it super fun for your kids, you will only need bobby pins and hair ties.<\/p>\n
