* GIVEAWAY CLOSED * Winner is Jennifer (motherofall6 on twitter)!
One of the fears I have always had as a mother sending my children to school was that they’d come home with lice. And there wouldn’t be anything I could do about it. Kids share coats and hats. They braid each other’s hair during recess and hug before they say good-bye at the end of each school day.
It’s a miracle that I’ve made it 13 years as a mom of girls without having a case of lice in the house.
But I’ve never been one to push my luck. When I was introduced to Zippity Doo’s Hair Care products for children, I was intrigued. A hair care regimen that helps prevent lice? Prevention is always a more pleasant route. To avoid the harsh treatments and hours of work to rid a girl’s long hair of lice? I’ll take it.
When my samples of Zippty Doo’s products came in the mail, my first reaction was that they smelled so normal! Not like chemicals or medicines, but like natural herbs. Very pleasant. My kids have all enjoyed using the shampoo and conditioner, and the de-tangler and gel have come in really handy with Reese’s new haircut.
Here’s how Zippity Doo’s products can be used:
![]() |
Bath Time: Zippity Doo’s™Shampoo and Zippity Doo’s™ Conditioner as first line of defense against lice and other insects. |
![]() |
Every Morning: Zippity Doo’s™ Leave-In Detangler or Zippity Doo’s™ Styling Gel for an added and fresh layer of lice prevention before the kids head off to school or camp. |
![]() |
Daily/As Needed: Apply Zippity Doo’s™ Shield Spray on all surfaces, including hats, helmets, backpacks, pillows, bedding, toys, combs, clips, berets and other items and hair accessories that may harbor lice, nits and other insects. |
Zippty Doo’s products can be purchased at CVS and other food and drug stores.

Disclosure: I received a full line of Zippity Doo’s products to review (the same that is being offered for give away), but my review was not biased. The thoughts are mine. Although it would have made the review more interesting, I did not expose my daughters to lice to see if it would really prevent lice from spreading. ;)

I like that these products helps prevent lice infestation, I don’t think I’ve seen any other kid’ hair products that does that! These would be great for my little girl who goes to daycare.

My daughter has four children in elementary school, I know she would highly appreciate these products, as my oldest granddaughter has contracted head lice in the past. A lot of work is involved in making sure your home is rid of head lice, vacuuming. bedding washing, etc., a nightmare!
I love that it’s designed especially for children. I don’t like to use adult products on my youngest daughter. I also like that they have detangler. I have to use detangler on her hair daily. Thank you!
I would like to win this for my neices. Their school seems to have an outbreak every year and I believe this would help them.
Having THREE in kindergarten, this would be handy to have – especially for my daughter who has the craziest hair in the mornings. It’s fun (cough cough) trying to manage it and get it looking semi-nice, lol.
THANK YOU!
I would like the leave-in detangler for my daughter.

This WILL NOT paste no matter what I try- but you can verify at: denyse_g
I love that these are mild and made specially for children.

My 6 year old grand-daughter has long hair down to her waist. Her mother would really have issues if there was a lice problem. And seeing how I would be the one to pick her up from school I wouldn’t be too happy either!! This is one case where a little prevention would save us all a lot of work and tears.

There always seems to be an outbreak at school. I would like the spray in particular as as softball season is about to begin. Even private helmets get passed around but team moms could help the situation a lot by spraying down the team gear.
I would like to try the detangler, my granddaughters hair is always tangled.

Hi! Last fall, my 3 yo niece got lice at school. If they come back this spring, my sister could use this line and feel safe knowing that she is preventing them.

i would love these products as i have 2 daughters in elementary school and it never fails every single school year , we have at least 1 or 2 lice out breaks. Both girls have had lice before more than i want to remember and i have already started my spring cleaning and do not wish to start all over LOL!!!!
I too am pleasantly surprised at never having had a case of head lice in our home. My oldest is 15! I love the bright colored bottles, the kids will find the products fun to use!

My little girl starts kindergarten this year and that is the number one fear of mine is she will bring home lice!
i like that they are mild enough for daily use.
I am right there with you! I have 5 kids and live in fear of a case of lice spreading in my home! I would love to win these products!
I would like to try it because I could give it to my brother for his kids to use. He is currently out of work so this would help incase the kids got lice.
Thanks
My granddaughter just stated daycare recently- and Well, these products would really give me peace of mind- you never know, nowadays.

I’d love to win this! With 3 boys lice would be spread in my house really quickly! Definitely not something I want in my house! Anything I can do to prevent it would help!
.-= Heather´s last blog ..I heart Faces- Week 11 (2010) =-.
I would love to win this because there is an outbreak in our school right now, and I would love to keep my daughter from getting it.
Ok, so I already follow you everywhere ;)
Hmmm. why would I want this? probably the best reason is because I am a TOTAL freak about lice. It literally makes my skin crawl just thinking about it and if there is a product out there to prevent us from getting it…oh mama! Me likey ;)
Rats, I was hoping to see some “real life” exposure to lice. :)
