HEAD LICE These wingless, flat insects infest the hair, lay their eggs (nits),
and suck blood from the scalp. A common problem among children, their classmates, and family members, this is spread by direct contact with the hair of the infected person. Studies have been conducted with 123 children with active head lice found that a combination of 10% Tea Tree essential oil (Melaleuca al- ternifolia) and 1% Lavender essential oil (Lavandula angustifolia) and a occlusion formula applied once weekly for a total of three of applications (days 1, 7, and 15) was effective in repelling and killing head lice and “suffocating” the nits (louse eggs).
SHAMPOO ¼ cup water
¼ cup liquid castile soap 1 tsp Jojoba (Simmondsia californica) 120 drops/6mls Tea Tree (Melaleuca alternifolia) 80 drops/4mls Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) Once blended, place in a clean 8oz glass or PET plastic bottle
Wet hair thoroughly, apply 1 tablespoon shampoo and massage into scalp and hair.
Comb hair from all directions with a metal louse comb, rinse the comb completely after each run to extract all nits, rinse all shampoo out to hair and comb again. Towel dry the hair.

Prior to going to bed, rub blen into hair and scalp, cover the hair with a shower cap. In the morning, repeat the shampoo and combing as listed above to extract any dead lice or nits. This should be repeated 7 days later and again on day 15.
RINGWORM A fungal infection that can appear on the scalp or other parts
of the body. This is another contagious infection that is easily spread by direct contact with the infection on an infected person or animal or by coming in contact with combs, hats, clothing, or toiletry items previously used by an infected person. A great blend for ringworm is 5 drops Lavender 5 drops
Palmarosa, 4 drops Manuka and 4 drops Geranium in a bottle labeled "Ringworm" with the ingredients listed and the date made. One drop of this blend can be applied directly to the sore twice a day. At night, use 3 drops of the blend in 1 teaspoon Neem oil - or if not available - Jojoba oil and apply to the sore and sur- rounding area.
