They tend to migrate to the nape of your neck, so you'll get really itchy there. If you have someone you are really close to, you can ask them to look at your scalp, and the actual strands of hair. If they pull a white thing out, put it on your fingernail. If it stays still, it's a dandruff. If it starts running around on your nail, it's a louse. I had it when I was about 10- I'd stayed the night with a friend and apparently their house was INFESTED! So nasty, and really embarrassing until my parents explained it had nothing to do with hygiene.

Neutrogena T-Gel is a really good shampoo to use if you have them. You'll still have to use Rid-X and that little comb though to scrape the lice and eggs out. And wash all your laundry on high heat.
