The Different Places You Can Get Head Lice

At Parties Or Gatherings

Anytime there is a large gathering, the risk for contracting head lice increases. This is especially true with children's parties. Sharing clothing and birthday hats, as well as frequent hugs from one person to another, provides the perfect foundation for easy transmission of head lice. Party throwers may want to reconsider the use of party headgear, such as party hats, to prevent the spread of the insect, especially amongst children, as these items can easily be mixed up and worn by multiple children. Sharing clothing and hats should be discouraged and head to head contact, such as hugging, should be limited if possible.
