- Does it actually prevent head lice?
- There is no clinical proof that this shampoo prevents lice. It is a mild cleanser with rosemary and other plant oils the brand markets as a deterrent, not a medicated treatment. It will not kill lice already present.
- Is it safe for color-treated hair?
- Yes. It is sulfate-free and paraben-free and is marketed for color-treated, dry and damaged hair as well as normal hair. It cleans gently without a harsh stripping lather.
- How does it compare with a medicated lice shampoo?
- Medicated shampoos contain pediculicides that kill lice and are used for a few days during an infestation. This is a daily cosmetic shampoo for routine washing, so it is not a substitute for treatment.
- What does it smell like?
- It has a fresh herbal scent led by rosemary with citrus and citronella notes. Many buyers like it, but some find it strong and lingering.
- Can adults use it too?
- Yes. It suits most hair types, including fine, oily, curly and thick hair, so adults in the household can use it as an everyday shampoo.
- Does it lather well?
- Less than sulfate shampoos. Expect a thinner foam, and use a little more if your hair is long or oily.
