Dandruff is a skin condition of the scalp that causes flakes to appear and is marked by itching. When your body renews the skin cells in your scalp, the old, dead ones are pushed to the surface.

No. Lice do not like hair oil because they can't latch onto the hair follicle. It's just like if you were going to try to turn a greasy doorknob. Lice can normally be found on the scalp behind the ears and right above the neck because hair is naturally less greasy in those places. ...

Not likely. Exterminators are not equipped to deal with insects that live on the human body, but rather insects and pests that live within the home.

Hair Food is, as far as I can tell, the brand name of a hair care product by Jell Pharma. It's not designed to kill lice; if it really could do this and could keep them from returning, then I feel certain they'd advertise the fact on their website.
