4.0 out of 5 stars Love the products, September 15, 2009

This review is from: Fairy Tales Repel Leave-In Conditioning Spray, Rosemary, 8 Fluid Ounce (Misc.)

I've been using the shampoo, conditioner and detangling spray on my daughter every day. (Well, we shampoo/condition about twice a week.) I use the shampoo and gel on my son's hair in the same way. We have not had issues with lice yet. I would give the products 5 stars, but until they are around children with lice (we fought it for 6 months in the classroom last year!) I don't feel comfortable saying it absolutely works. For me, I figure we've got to buy shampoo etc. anyway, might as well use a preventative one. My daughter does tell me she hasn't noticed the gnats flying around her face lately. I was a little concerned about all the oil mentioned in the product, but I needn't have. My daughter's shoulder length hair always looks lovely. So much so I've started using the product myself just so my hair looks better! Can't beat a natural, organic product I guess.

As for a previous review, lice eggs can take two weeks to hatch, so it's possible they were already in the child's hair. Using the preventative products after the fact isn't going to help. Also, per their own materials, the products must be layered for full effect. The shampoo alone only has about a 70% rate of working. But, adding the conditioner and then leave-in spray (or gel) brings it to about 100% by (admittedly) their own research.

When lice broke out at school, like every other parent, I freaked out. Keeping my daughter's hair in a bunn or high ponytail forever wasn't exactly going over well with her. I had talked to a few other parents who purchased some other similar sprays. I checked this one out and has all the same ingredients as other more expensive ones. We LOVE the smell of this spray, it's light but the smell is soo good I wish they made it in a regular aerosol for adults hair! =) Anyway daughter and son both like it (don't let the title deter you from using for boys because they can get lice too!). It does work to detangle nicely and leaves a light silky sheen on her hair when combed thru afterwards which are great added bonuses.
Since using there have been a few other lice breakouts and we've not gotten anything. Obviously some of that is common sense teaching our children not to share hair accessories etc., but I do believe the spray is a huge help too.
People have been using natural ingredients to solve problems for years and years that have worked. I really don't think that purchasing strong, chemical-laden, (in which those are all carinogenic) products to kill or deter lice is appropriate for children. So in short, we are quite happy with this spray. It smells so nice I think I might start buying their shampoo and conditioner (since they are all natural ingredients) as well! =)

I ordered this after trying another lice repel spray after my daughter had lice. It smells much better than the other one I had and my daughter just sprays her hair every morning before she puts it up. We have not had lice again, I will continue to use this throughout her school days!
