Quit Nits
30 reviews
ths treatment failed me, though i do understand that my hair is long and thick, my head lice was only a minor case. I coated my whole scalp and roots in the treatment, kept it in for an hour and washed it out with the post-treatment 2 in 1. 5 days after putting in the treatment, I found adult lice bugs crawling about in my hair. I took all the… Read more
necessary protocols (washing all my sheets and clothes, not letting anything touch my head) so I know it is the treatment's fault. The fact they are adults is telling me they survived the treatment. The treatment is also pretty stinky. Maybe it's a matter of timing when to use the treatment, but I wouldn't buy it, considering they advertised this product saying you only need to use the treatment once.
i'm still giving it 2 stars because it was also a bit of me only using half a bottle. i heard thick hair people gotta use 2 bottles.
I wish I saw the reviews before wasting money on 2 bottles of this for the family, but it was late at night and the only thing Woolworths had. It’s absolutely useless, left it on for the required hour, washed it out at 11pm only to find healthy, active lice still running around our scalps! Save your time and money. Buy MOOV lice treatment instead.
Would give this foam 0 stars if I could. Absolute joke. Does nothing, even with repeat treatments and low levels of lice and eggs. DO NOT waste your money, do not believe the box. Does not kill lice, does not kill eggs. And overclaiming one treatment is enough. Sounds like a false holy grail, because it is.
Brought 2 bottles for mine and daughters hair.used full bottles. Left in overnight as per instructions for best results. Alive lice after wash out Don't waste your money doesn't work.
I've used this product for years..totally loved it..easy to use..kept the family free for months.. You have changed your ingredients and its useless..DOES NOT WORK..need to go back to how you originally had it.
Waste of money, doesn’t kill the lice even after hours of application and two treatments! There’s no way you’re going to be able to comb out every last lice or egg, so best spend your money on a product with actual lice killing ingredients. Smells terrible too. Avoid.
We used this as per manufacturer instructions. Left the spray on for more than an hour, comb as many dead nits out. Couldn't get all the eggs as they're too tiny and passes the combs teeth. The egg did not die at all, it did nothing to the eggs and my son is reinfected after a few days, of treatment, now with the whole family having nits too. … Read more
Wished i’ve read the reviews before buying the product. Wasted energy, time, and alot of tears. Shampoo does absolutely nothing.
Rubbish – Rubbish, have tried soooo many time from this brand and spent so much on it, thinking it would work. Today I went I bought an other one from Woolies a different kind left it in the kids hair for over 40 min, they where sooo active taking them out! Last time I will spend another cent on them. Please save yourself the dollars and do not buy this product, you are better using coconut oil
Wasted money – 3rd run through of hair it got caught on her hair and pulled 2 teeth of comb out well nent out and cant fix it wasn't cheap..best buy cheap ones instead..
Only sedated the nits, did not kill them – Identified the beginning of nits in one of my kid’s hair. Went straight to woolworths and bought the Quitnits foaming product that claims to “kill lice and eggs”. Followed the directions precisely. Was initially really happy to see unmoving nits on the paper after wiping the comb. However, while my son was in the shower again i was about to… Read more
throw out the paper then I thought I saw one move. I watched closely and the things all started moving!! I wish I had taken a video. It didn’t kill any of them, it just stunned them so I could comb them out. So now if I’ve missed any we are back to square one. What a waste of time and money.
Not what promised on packaging at all – I wish I read the reviews before waisting my money. I had active lice the very next day after using this product. I tried twice following all the directions and same results...I am so fed up with head lice products that cost a fortune and dont work. I am a teacher and got lice from a student...no wonder parents are pulling their hair out in frustration.
Absolute rubbish – Waste of money!! Used on myself and my 2 daughters even used conditioner and nit comb and they haven't budged at all!!! Just go straight to MOOVE or KP24 don't bother wasting your money or more so your time! Hours of combing hours of waiting for the product to work and nothing!!
My mum brought this and I still feel them in my hair – So my mum decided to buy this “solution treatment” yesterday she went through my hair for an hour and when I washed it out just woke up and I’m itching
I'm surprised by the other reviews. This works really well – I've used this product (Quitnits foam) twice now on my daughter and it's worked really well both times. It smells nice, doesn't irritate her head or seem toxic, and it kills lice. It's not a quick process - you have to leave it on for 15 mins (so it kills the lice), then rinse it out and cover the head with conditioner (to make the hair slippery)… Read more
and then use the comb systematically throughout the whole head, from the roots to the tips. In my experience, the lice are dead and just comb straight out along with the conditioner. You then have to repeat it a week later (just in case any of the eggs weren't removed and hatch). I suggest putting the kid in front of a movie to maintain everyone's sanity. I think it's a good product and would buy again (except that the bottle is huge and kids will probably be grown up before it runs out!). I've included a magnified photo of one of the dead lice for everyone's enjoyment!
false advertising! – all these products claim to kill nits and eggs in one go. if that were true, why is there a need to comb everything out? why does it say great again. week later? I've done both of those things twice and the nits are still there! absolute rubbish. you'd have the same results with cheap conditioner. waste of time and they shouldn't be allowed to say it kills them.
Sh!t House – This product is garbage! Used half a dozen times in a 3 week period and the lice remained. Very disappointing I would happily give this zero stars if possible. A b c
Quit nits $24 to have your head still crawling with lice! – Faulse advertising writing mums no.1 on the bottle the lice live this product and just keep crawling $24 for absolutely nothing the product should be removed from the shelves I feel blindsided by faulse advertising the product doesn't do what it says.
Did not kill lice! – 1st time experience with nits so I bought quitnits foam from the supermarket. Followed instructions and then decided to have a check 2 days later and saw some more lice!! Repeated treatment and checked tissue afterwards. The lice were STILL MOVING! Absolutely useless. Did not kill the lice. Will be going to chemist to get some stronger stuff tomorrow!
10 minute spruik is misleading – I selected this item based on the gold icon stating "Mum's Most No 1 Trusted Brand", the suggestion it Kills Fast & the 10min promise. After using the rapid solution & observing a louse under a microscope with solution placed on the microscope slide, it took that little beast 90mins to stop moving & die.
Rubbish product – This product did not work. Used it on myself as I’m breastfeeding and my 2 year old we both still had nits and eggs. I did mine twice with two different quitnit products and both were rubbish and expensive.
Doesn’t work – I hadn’t tried this brand before so thought I’d give it a go. Never again. After 4.5 hours of being left on my kids head, it was shampooed out. I then combed it and the lice were literally still crawling around. They weren’t dead. The packaging doesn’t state the truth.
Glad I bought it half price as I didn’t waste quite as much money as I would have full price – Followed the directions to the letter and once it came time to comb my daughters hair the lice were still alive and crawling in the tissues I’d wiped the comb off with. Yay for natural products but what’s the point of they don’t even work? I used Nitwits straight after and it did the job well.
Quitnits complete headlice kit doesnt work – I used this product 4 times in 1.5 weeks and it did not work. The lice off the comb supplied were still alive and quick. I went out and got neutralice and they were dead within 10 minutes! Dont waste your money on this product. Just buy the plastic comb instead. The eggs were easier to remove but nothing died which is the aim of lice removal!
Terrible. Didnt work at all!!! – Put Quit nits in all the families hair. 2 days later we all still have nits. I have hone back to good old KP24...its the sure thing. Don't waste your time with quit nits.
Doesnt work!!! – Don't bother with Quitnits, it doesn't do anything, waste of time and money, tried to treat the household and got no results. I have found that the Nitwits product does work rather effectively however.
Waste of money – I used this product on my kids and myself (precautionary measure). An hour after applying I combed through their hair and the nits were still alive. I washed their hair in the egg remover shampoo and they still have eggs everywhere in their hair. I repeated the process again 2 days later as they still had nits, again 2 days after this they were… Read more
not killed or removed! Waste of money and waste of time. I chose this product because it doesn't have nasty chemicals like some of the others but should have went that route to begin with and the nits would of been banished the first time.
Terrible – Very upsetting. After leaving on for 6 hours i found live lice in both daughter’s hair. Ended up doing the conditioner method. You need to change the formula or take off the market as I believe they are immune. Or at least state on the packaging that it might not work.
Not as good as it states – Treated my 3 grandaughters with this once only no combing lice treatment after standing at the lice section reading all the products available for over 15 minutes. Put in hair and combed through thoroughly. Left for 4 hours. Even though they state no combing required I actually ran a nit comb through their hair before washing it out. All I can say… Read more
is that I am thoroughly disappointed with this product. It did not work and left the Lice virtually having a party on our kitchen table after removing them by hand. So I guess in 7 days we will have to go through it all again. Very expensive exercise when we had to buy 2 bottles to treat the whole family. Not happy.
Doesn't kill eggs as advertised – This product worked on my daughters hair, only because I removed every single egg, however it has not worked on my hair, as I do not have anyone to pull all of the eggs for me, however the product falsely advertises that it kills the eggs also, which it clearly does not, I have treated myself now 5 times & still have head lice.
DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY – rubbish product. did not work and did not even kill one louse or nit. don't waste your money on this product. so disappointed especially with the product being so expensive
