* Easier to Grip: Lice find it easier to grip onto clean hair shafts because there is less oil and product buildup. Dirty or oily hair can make it harder for them to attach.
* Not a Sign of Poor Hygiene: Head lice infestations are not a reflection of someone's hygiene or living conditions. Anyone can get head lice, regardless of how often they shower or wash their hair.
* Spreads Easily: Lice are spread through head-to-head contact, sharing personal items like combs, brushes, hats, or pillows. This can happen anywhere, regardless of cleanliness.
