Some people say to leave it in overnight...some say for a couple of hours. The idea is to smother the lice. Now I cant really see them surviving more than a couple hours. The oil in the mayo will help to comb out the nit(eggs). Be sure to repeat this process every 5-6 days in case you miss a couple of the eggs. Hope this helps.

How long should you leave olive oil in your hair?

You should leave olive oil in your hair for at least 1 hour but it does depend on what you are using the oil for. For example if you are using it for hair loss then you will need to leave it on for a considerably long amount of time,3 hours at the most but if it is for massaging then you should massage it in for about 15 minutes then wait 1-2 hours and then remove it. Hope this helps.
