What is the most frequent factor of misdiagnosis head lice?

Lice is very common. I find that many get it during the childhood. three million ppl get lice each year in the United States. People should avoid using hair things and brushes with ppl who have lice. Many do not tell others they have lice b/c it is a nuesence. Also Hair Stylists don't cut lice hair but most ppl find it easier to treat lice with shorter hair. Try NOT TELLING the Stylist that's what i did.
