头虱是非常常见的头发问题,如果处理不当,会迅速增加和扩散。尽管这在儿童中很普遍,但在妇女中也很普遍。虱子以血液为食,并靠近头皮。在本文中,我们将考虑用于去除头虱的椰子油的科学证据。向下滚动以开始使用。
虱子出没的原因是什么?
头虱是寄生虫,往往会在人们的头上占据住处。头虱病在医学上被称为小腿病,是从头虱学名“ Pediculus humanus capitis” 衍生而来的 。
一个常见的误解是,可以通过与有虱子的人间接接触而收缩头虱。虱子只能通过直接接触而收缩,因为它们只能靠采血生存(1)。他们无法在没有血液的物体上生存。但为安全起见,建议不要使用其他围巾,梳子和其他发饰。
另一个误解是头虱与体虱相同。体虱通常通过衣服或床传播到身体,这与头虱不同,后者需要血液才能生存(2)。
- 与患有头虱的人亲密接触会导致他们从头转移到你的头上,这可能包括拥抱它们,坐在它们旁边,在他们旁边睡觉等。这就是虱子在学校中迅速传播的原因-小孩子们,因为他们在一起很近,每天玩几个小时(3)。
- 与有头虱的人共享衣服,例如帽子,帽子,围巾(基本上是与您的头部非常接近的东西)或发刷,这不会导致您得到它。但是为了安全起见,请避免使用它。
- 在过去24小时内,躺在带有头虱的人使用的床上,枕头或沙发上可能会导致虱子出没。
如果您是成年人,感染了头虱,可能会很尴尬。而且很容易被拥有它们的人弄得毛骨悚然。但是您应该记住的一件事是,头虱并不是卫生状况差的迹象。这对我们来说是最好的,最好是尽快开始处理问题,而不是浪费时间感到尴尬或判断力。最简单的方法是用椰子油!
为什么要使用椰子油治疗虱子
进行了研究,以检查椰子油是否能有效清除虱子。在以色列进行的一项研究发现,椰子油,茴香油和依兰依兰油的混合物在治疗虱子侵染中非常有效,并且没有引起任何副作用(4)。
在英国进行的另一项研究得出的结论是,与氯菊酯溶液相比,椰子和茴香油喷雾剂对虱子的治疗更为有效(5)。
另一项研究表明,椰子油与南美番荔枝种子混合可清除98%的虱子(6)。
但是椰子油如何去除虱子呢?这样做的主要原因有三个。
首先,其浓稠的稠度有助于使卵和虱子窒息而死,从而将其永久杀死(7)。
其次,由于椰子油具有粘性,因此可以防止虱子转移到衣服和家具上,从而阻止它们传播到他人身上。
第三,它含有脂肪酸,如癸酸,月桂酸和辛酸,可使您的发丝滑滑,挑战虱子的抓握力,易于梳理。
但是,使用椰子油进行虱子治疗的最重要原因可能是事实,它是一种纯天然疗法,可带来调理头发,使其更顺滑和整体健康的额外好处(8)。
它还可以穿透发干,从内部为头发补充水分,一直到皮层,并减少光损伤和蛋白质损失(9)。另一方面,您在药店购买的基于化学的虱子疗法可能会损坏您的头发,并且如果吞食,还会引起诸如恶心,腹泻和视力模糊的副作用。
您可以使用多种方法来使用椰子油去除虱子。让我们看看其中的一些。
如何将椰子油用于虱子
椰子油本身可以很好地清除头虱,但您可以将其与其他几种成分混合使用,以提高其功效,并为您的头发提供营养。
1. Just Plain Ol'椰子油
如前所述,椰子油是一种有效的虱子治疗方法。而且很容易使用。
如何使用
- 将椰子油涂在头发上,并按摩到头皮中。
- 将毛巾缠在头上,放置一个小时。
- 取下毛巾,用尼特梳子梳出虱子和鸡蛋。
- 用洗发水和护发素洗头。
2.椰子油和苹果醋用于虱子的治疗
椰子油和苹果醋可能听起来像是一种奇怪的组合,但它们可以很好地协同作用来清除虱子。ACV包含乙酸和抗菌特性(10)。这些特性可以帮助杀死头虱。
如何使用
- 混合等量的椰子油和苹果醋,确保您有足够的混合物涂在头发上。
- 将混合物涂抹在头发上,并按摩到头皮中。
- 戴上浴帽并保持15分钟。
- 用尼特梳子梳理虱子和鸡蛋。
- 洗发水并调理头发。
3.茶树油和椰子油的虱子治疗
茶树油是一种天然成分,可作为有效的抗菌剂和杀虫剂(11)。一项研究表明,茶树油在30分钟内杀死了100%的头虱(12)。它与椰子油完美搭配,可消除虱子。
如何使用
- 将五滴茶树油与两汤匙椰子油混合。
- 将此油混合物涂在头发上,并按摩到头皮中。
- 戴上浴帽,放置过夜。
- The next morning, blow dry your hair over the shower cap to suffocate the lice.
- Remove the shower cap and comb out the lice and eggs with a nit comb.
- Shampoo and condition your hair.
4. Coconut Oil And Garlic
Using essential oils along with garlic and coconut oil for head lice may seem too stinky for some people. However, garlic works as a tremendous antiparasitic and antifungal agent that helps in getting rid of lice, especially when mixed with coconut oil (13). A study done in Saudi Arabia showed that garlic juice caused 100% mortality for head lice within 90 minutes (14).
How To Use
- Mix one tablespoon of garlic juice with two tablespoons of coconut oil.
- Apply this mixture to your hair and scalp.
- Put on a shower cap and leave it on for an hour.
- Remove the shower cap and comb out the lice and eggs with a nit comb.
- Wash your hair with a shampoo and conditioner.
5. Coconut Oil, Lemon Juice, And Green Tea
While the coconut oil makes your hair too slippery for the lice to latch on, the acidity of the lemon juice makes an inhospitable environment for them (15), (16). Green tea counteracts the harshness of the lemon juice and has anti-lice properties (17).
How To Use
- Mix a tablespoon each of coconut oil, lemon juice, and green tea.
- Apply this mixture to your hair and massage it into your scalp.
- Put on a shower cap and leave it on for an hour.
- Comb out the lice and eggs with a nit comb before washing your hair.
Try any of these methods using coconut oil to get rid of head lice. However, if the lice aren’t going away despite using these remedies consistently, consult a doctor.
Expert’s Answers For Readers’ Questions
Do lice jump from person to person?
No, lice cannot jump from person to person. They spread when the person with lice gets in close contact with another person or shares a comb, clothes, hat, pillow, etc. with them.
How do lice spread?
Lice spread when an infected person comes in direct or indirect (through clothes, furniture) contact with non-infested persons.
How do you know if you have lice or dandruff?
If you can see white nit eggs that are stuck to your hair shaft, you have lice. If your scalp has turned white or yellow, is scaly in texture, and white flakes are falling off of it every time you touch your hair, you have dandruff.
Can lice make my scalp/head smell bad?
No, lice cannot make your scalp/head smell bad.
