mbooth:
A tip for anyone who can't / doesn't get one of these.
If you have kids, get a Nitty Gritty comb (Thats the brand name). They're £10 in Boots, and the best nit comb available (any respecting parent will tell you ;))
But you don't need to buy them. They're available on prescription, and as children get free prescriptions...quids in!
Your doctor may not know about it, but you can go to the Nitty Gritty website and get a downloadable leaflet to show your doctor where to look for the right code.
Couldn't agree more, I got one of these through my doctor, had to print off the leaflet and give it to reception, the prescription was ready a few days later (easy peasy)
By FAR the best nit comb we've used, and we've tried a few, lol.
