Diagnosis

The diagnosis is made with a systematic examination of the hairy head through the detection of living lice, larvae or viable eggs, ie eggs less than 1 cm away from the scalp.

It is recommended that hair dampened with water and a hair conditioner be examined using a lice comb. These are special combs, the prongs of which are no more than 0.2 mm apart and not very elastic, so that the lice or nits are better captured. To find the lice, the hair must be systematically combed strand by strand until the hair conditioner is combed out residues are rinsed out. The comb should be guided so that it is pulled down firmly from the scalp to the ends of the hair. After each combing, the comb should be carefully examined for lice wiping on a light-colored towel is beneficial, any lice found must be removed. A magnifying glass can be helpful to spot larvae.
