Best Answer

You have to take strands of hair & look at your scalp. Head lice attach themselves & lay their eggs just a little away from your actual scalp & stay on strands of hair. You can check for the eggs, which will be white if hatched, & brown/gray for those that didn't. If they move easily when you brush it with your finger, it is not head lice. If it is hard to move, & stays in place, it is likely to be nits (the eggs).
