I dunno, but I honesty wouldn't try!
Chlorine from a swimming pool will not kill lice.They can shut down their respiratory system for over 10 hours.

If you put chlorine on your childs hair it isn't safe!You are much better off to put conditioner and olive oil to the head to suffocate the live lice.Then you can immobilize them and comb them out. One doesn't need harsh chemicals to kill lice.

They need to be suffocated by something thick,then combed out!

All nits must be removed as well or lice will return!

I'm not sure, but if it does, it would be needed in high concentration which would damage the hair. I read in ascientific journal that blow-dryin your hair can kill lice by drying them up...
it might but it will damage your hair
Yes chlorine can kill the head lice and can even corrode the hairs
No it doesn't. It's probably possible that chlorine could kill lice, but it would have to be in such high concentrations that it would seriously hurt a human. And, unfortunately, lice can hold their breath in water so you can't really drown them either.
Well, for one, it depends on how long you are in that pool. If you hang out in that pool for 3 hours, they most likely already drowned. Chlorine itself can kill lice eggs, and lice, but then again, the amount of diluted chlorine in pools, mixed with other chemicals, just leads to only a few actually dying. There isn't enough chlorine in standardized american pools to kill lice.
Yes it could because chlorine is to strong for them to handle so eventually they will die.
Chlorine from pools will NOT kill lice bugs but it can kill the nits, the lice eggs, because the chemicals are too much pressure so they'll never hatch and die. But the lice will still live.
