hi my name is ray lewis and i'm owner of
lice control we've been doing this for
nine years now and i'd like to show you
how to use the nip comb when it comes to
removing lice I've trained hundreds of
technicians on this and we've been doing
this for so long that we found that this
kind of combing is really one of the
best ways to follow up with any kind of
lice treatment that you may be using we
have found this kind of combing very
detailed in conjunction with a great
product that you may be using will
definitely eradicate your life so I'm
going to show you a few things that
you're going to need when you are going
to want to be removing lice and these
things are a must so that's this big
comb right here is going to be great to
start out combing out those snarls and
tangles and things in your child's hair
we want to start out using this and then
we want to break down to using something
like this which is called a rat tail
comb you know hence the tail and the
reason why we want to use some of these
things is because eventually you're
going to have to break it down to get it
finer and finer
because you're ultimately going to have
to use this this now this is the neck
Terminator comb
this is the best comb on the market so
far we have found we've tried many of
them as a years gone by ultimately this
is the best comb because it glides to
the hair much easier it has serrated
edges which claims to actually cut open
the eggs when you slide through which
we're not sure but either way it has a
non-slip grip because many times as you
get in there and start combing sometimes
the comb falls out of your hair and so
this is why we choose this comb you want
some clips this will help you to keep
the hair out of your way we have cream
conditioner here we here we use fairy
tales this brand works very well and it
has other products that we do sell on
our website at lice - control.com and we
have a towel so we can wipe off the comb
or the critters and other things you
find and some water you need this to
reactivate this when this starts drying
up you have a bulb this is great for
putting the
is again critters in jail here we call
it and they just can't get out they just
stay in there the eggs the lice and yeah
this works very well and you know have
yourself a table I ever see just get
yourself ready to prepare this work out
great because once you start combing you
really don't want to stop right now what
I do what I did is I parted some of this
off just to make it easier on us and
what we want to do is give it two nice
sexes like this where nice clean parts
so it makes a lot easier to run the comb
through because if you if you did get
too close to one of the edges it's going
to snag this part and it's going to be
very difficult and we want to make sure
you're doing this right and not fighting
yourself by doing anything like this so
you just take a section and you put some
of the cream conditioner in any kind of
conditioner will work put enough to
where this is going to slide through
very well but you got to make sure that
it's enough if you don't then you're
going to be fighting the hair instead of
actually focusing on getting the lice so
one of the biggest things that we want
to do here is when we start you start
right at the edge here make sure you're
angled enough and stay on the scalp
these are one of the biggest things that
you have to do is you have to make sure
you're staying on the scalp with emotion
following the scalp a lot of it is in
the wrist it's not all in the arms so
let's just kind of stay right here and
you hang onto the hair and then we'll
start right here and then as you follow
through you can stay right of the scalp
you can watch yourself right on the
scalp and then you flip the hair over
and then you twist with your wrist and
you see you can tell when you have
enough conditioners when you have a nice
little build up if there's not enough
then you may want to add a little more
the next time around now this helps to
continually slide that egg all the way
off the hair when you do break it free
so it doesn't get caught somewhere over
here and stay in the hair so as we
your wrist it draws deeper into the comb
this is where your power is in the comb
right and in here if you have the hair
out here if the tongs aren't very strong
when you have a deep in here it works
out great so one continuous going deeper
the column you'll see and then away from
you one stroke that's what you want to
do and see there's some creating
conditioner on there you know you're
doing good you get your towel use a
towel that has a little fluffy so it cut
helps you get it out of the comb and
then you hold this up again you never
let go this hair don't let go this hair
and so then you want to go on this side
you want to do all the sides so we go
right here again down with the following
the curvature of the scalp right so we
want to stay on the scalp see the
tongues all the way on the scalp this
picks up lice also that's what you want
to do too and you begin as you go up a
little bit it's just a little bit draws
deep you hang onto the hair down here so
you don't yank on the poor person pull
up a little bit push down on the comb
raise your hand a little bit more and
now deep in the comb with that wrist
action see nice and deep hold up a
little bit down so you don't hurt the
person so you have slack down here now
you can just yank or do whatever because
you're not gonna hurt the person we want
to do the same thing to this side here
this side here you may want to shift a
little bit normally you would have to
come over here again so you can position
yourself correctly with the comb like
this and again we'll just boom-boom up a
little bit deep in the column hold it
down so you get some slack here deep in
the column and there you go you do that
all the way around the head the waves
position you just kind of get your clips
okay so that's it for the combing

thorough and make sure not to be
frustrated because sometimes the combing
