I raised three girls, all with long hair. My ex and I both had long hair too.

Its not big deal, I dealt with it five or six times, maybe more, over a period of almost 30 years of raising my girls. Yeah we spread them out a bit.

Its a one day ordeal of cleaning the nits and bugs out of everyone's hair, cleaning all hair implements and laundering all the bedding and towels in the house with Lysol.

You might want to run the stuffed animals thru a hot dryer just to be sure.

Here's some info....BTW forget the mayonnaise; its bullshit. Use an over the counter stuff called RID with the fine tooth comb works like a charm.
