Head Lice cannot jump and they do not live on other animals. You get them from head to head contact with another person. The lice crawl from their head to yours. If you get more than one louse and they breed, then you get eggs which hatch and you have an infestation.
You get head lice by putting your head by someone who already has head lice
Head lice can "get into" just about anywhere on your body, but they are not likely to stay anywhere other than your head. Hence the name head lice.
This is what I can tell you from my expert experience. Your head may itch only after you have had head to head contact,or shared brushes, hats or combs with someone with head lice. This is how head lice is passed. They don't fly or jump but they do crawl Fast!! If your head itches and you have been in close contact with someone with lice you may need to call an expert. My Hair Helpers is trained to help detect head lice. Don't wait until you have a full infestation to call an expert!
By inspecting their hair.
you can get it from anyone who has head lice or places like hotels , movie theater's friends house ( sharing bows brushes) pretty much anywhere you put your head where someone has head lice.
Kids usually get lice from direct head-to-head contact with someone who already has lice. Lice can crawl from one person's hair to another's, especially in school, during sleepovers, or when playing closely together. Sharing hats, brushes, or hair accessories can also spread lice.
yes any one can get head lice but it can be highly dangerous if yu have a blood desise and have nits cause cause they will go to someone elses head and give them that blood
Sharing brushes/combs, wearing anothers hat, lying on an infected persons' pillow or just hanging out with somebody that does have head lice. It is head to head contact..... stay away from somebody scratching!
No, pets cannot get head lice. Head lice are specific to humans and do not infest animals.

Head lice is actually already the plural form. The singular is head louse.
Anyone who has hair on their head can get head lice. It sounds like a funny way of saying things, but head lice only survive on our heads and need hair to grasp onto in addition to sucking blood from the skin of our scalps. So, anyone who comes in contact with another person who has head lice can conceivably get them.
