Remaining nits may be removed by hand (using a throw-away glove), or cutting the nits out. use the nit comb provided and make sure the hair remains slightly damp while removing nits if the hair dries during combing, dampen it slightly with water part the hair into 4 sections. Work on one section at a time. Longer hair may take more time (1-2 hours). start at the top of the head on the section you have picked with one hand, lift a 1-2 inch wide strand of hair. Get the teeth of the comb as close to the scalp as possible and comb with a firm, even motion away from the scalp to the end of the hair. use clips to pin back each strand of hair after you have combed out the nits clean the comb completely as you go. Wipe the nits from the comb with a tissue and throw away the tissue in a sealed plastic bag to prevent the lice from coming back. after combing, recheck the entire head for nits and repeat combing if necessary check the affected head daily to remove any nits that you might have missed
