At Licenders, we do not use any chemicals for headlice treatment. Instead we use natural enzymes to destroy the lice. Headlice, like other insect species, rely on enzymes to shed their exoskeletons.
The exoskeleton is the hard surface that covers the outside of the body of an insect. The exoskeleton does not grow with the insect. Instead, it is shed periodically, and the insect generates a new one. The insect produces an enzyme that splits open its exoskeleton, so the bug can grow. This is called “molting”.
In the normal cycles of nature, molting is necessary for the survival of an insect species. Enzymes are always the source of the molting process. Obviously insects never become immune to enzymes. If they did, the molting process, a basic biological part of nature would stop - and the entire insect world could become extinct! Therefore, unlike the chemical lice shampoo products out there, you can be sure that human hair lice do not become resistant to Licenders Professional Shampoo.
