The Mayo Treatment
Here are the ingredients needed for the mayo treatment:
1-2 32 oz. Jars of Mayonnaise (the real stuff, no Miracle Whip) – depending on the amount of hair to be treated
1 Roll of Plastic Wrap or a Plastic Shower Cap (sometimes better)
1 Bottle of White Vinegar
1 Bottle of Denorex Dandruff Shampoo
1 Bottle of Dawn Dish-washing Soap
1-3 Rolls of Paper Towels
1 Metal NIT Removal Comb
Optional: 1 plastic spray bottle
The Mayo Treatment instructions:
Completely saturate the entire head of hair with Mayonnaise. Once done, wrap the head with plastic wrap, or shower cap (best for children) and leave mayonnaise on overnight, or for a minimum of 8 hours if performing treatment during the day.
Rinse out mayonnaise with warm water as best you can. Then apply a small amount of Dawn, or de-greasing type dish soap to the head and work into a lather to remove excessive “greasy” feeling. Rinse hair completely.
While hair is still wet, apply a normal size amount of Denorex Dandruff Shampoo to head and work into a lather. Rinse hair.
Towel dry hair and then apply white vinegar to the hair either by hand or with a small spray bottle.
Next, use the Metal NIT Comb and begin combing out the hair starting at the roots and continuing all the way down the hair shaft. Do this for the entire head and start at the top.
When using the NIT comb, remember to always comb in small, thin sections of hair, about ½ inch, to ensure complete NIT removal.
Repeat this entire process in 3 to 5 day intervals for the next 2 to 4 weeks to be sure that all lice are gone including and especially the NITs.
The Mayo Treatment is one method to get rid of lice at home. The Olive Oil Treatment is very similar.
