The weather has taken a turn for the worse and summer is officially over. Now that the kids are back in school, parents are double checking lists to ensure they have everything they need for stress-free learning.
However, it’s not just books and pencil cases they will be carrying around - head lice outbreaks are a common occurrence at the beginning of the school year with children being in close proximity to each other.
If you have the misfortune to find lice, don't be worried or embarrassed. Head lice are a normal part of childhood - nearly one in 10 primary school children could have head lice at any one time. Unfortunately, most parents know what a hassle it is to treat head lice and just how frustrating it can be when your child comes home scratching their head.
But with ClonMedica’s help you don’t have to worry about the dreaded lice with their quick and stress-free Hedrin head lice solutions. The range includes Hedrin Protect & Go, Hedrin Treat & Go and Hedrin Once.
These products are each proven to be highly effective at killing and protecting against head lice, but specially formulated to suit different preferences and lifestyles.
When it comes to checking your little one's head for lice, it is best to check using a comb made for the purpose, ideally white so they can be easily seen and with teeth no more than 0.3mm apart. Combing through the hair when wet, or after applying a conditioner, may make the process more comfortable. Good lighting is important and so is comfort.
TV3’s Sybil Mulcahy, Ambassador for Hedrin, said of the new range: “It is every parent’s nightmare finding those little eggs in your child’s head. Last year my kids got head lice so I learnt fast. With three kids, two in primary school, I do receive the dreaded notes saying there is a bout of head lice in the school but because I use Hedrin Protect & Go I know my kids aren’t affected which is a huge relief.”
