Instructions

  • Blend the above solutions in the spray bottle and spray on hair to coat.
  • No need to shampoo out.

Notes

 
To Prevent Lice: Spray on hair daily in the morning and/or at night.  Work through entire head of hair.
To Remove Lice: Spray on hair at night and comb through dampened hair with a fine toothed comb in the morning.
Notes on Lavender: Hungarian Lavender has a sweet scent, and Bulgarian Lavender has a more herbaceous scent. So choose accordingly.
Alcohol Preservation Notes: Ideally you want a 20% alcohol formula for adequate preservation.  You will need to determine this based on the proof of the vodka that you use. The 1.1 ounce measurement in the recipe card is for 75 proof alcohol.
