That may be gross, but it is a reality. I got a letter from my daughters school three weeks ago that one of the children in her class was sent home with head lice. So we had to check all of the heads in the family to ensure no Head Lice. I was the quickest.
Fortunately, I have several products that I sell for treatment as well as prevention. So my kids are protected as soon as there is an out break.
I always get questions from people who know that I have a full head of hair. "WHy did you shave your head?" I reply "Locks of love" or "Headlice" almost everytime.
