Help answer this question below.

Have you ever worked as a professional barber/stylist that cuts hair? If someone came in and had head lice, would you be able to tell? Would you do/say anything or just cut their hair and keep your mouth shut?

    I was a stylist and Yes you can definately see the little bugs crawling around and the eggs attached to the hair. You need to quietly (without embarassment)tell them and No, you DO NOT cut their hair in risk of spreading it to you other clients.

    Yes, unlike dry scalp, head lice attach themselves to the hair shaft 1" from the head, check hot spots, behind the ears, nape, explaine what the client should do to rid the lice, professionaly. Once, after the client left I bought new clothes, and went back to work.
