Head Lice Treatment For Pregnant Women

Treating head lice during pregnancy can be a nuisance since most of the over the counter treatments contain toxic chemicals. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not use head lice medications that contain chemicals to kill lice and should consider the effect of using any chemical shampoo, oil or gel. The Robi Comb is a non-chemical treatment for lice that does not expose a woman and her young child to dangerous chemicals during pregnancy or while breast feeding.

Children are vulnerable to toxic chemicals. A lack of clear health information necessitates a precautionary approach to chemical exposure and toxins.

In fact, children are far more vulnerable to toxic chemicals than adults. So doesn’t it make sense to avoid putting pesticides and oils in your child’s hair to get rid of lice? The electronic Robi Comb detects and destroys lice on contact, simply by combing it through dry hair. When the Robi Comb touches lice, they get zapped and die- without the use of dangerous chemicals.
