Zippity Doo’s *Giveaway*

Posted by 69 Comments

This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by.  The winner is Lynn. Congrats!

In the spring, we’ll put our little boy back in preschool.  While I appreciate the fact that he gets education and social interaction at preschool, I’m not crazy about the germs and bugs he often brings home.  When I interned as a school nurse, I learned that lice is actually more prevalent that I thought.  When you get a group of kids in close proximity to each other (they don’t typically observe personal space), lice is not uncommon.

Zippity Doo’s is a line of hair care products designed to prevent head lice.  I’d much rather prevent those icky bugs than have to use medicated products to treat it.  The products are made with natural ingredients like Vitamin D, Rosemary, Cinnamon, Tea Tree, & Lavender.  I expected the products to have a “medicinal” smell, but surprisingly they smell good (sort of minty).  According to the company, they’re mild enough to use daily and help prevent lice infestation.  They also work to leave hair shiny and free from tangles.  In a sense, they serve two functions.  The product line includes the following:

  • Zippity Doo’s Shampoo for Children
  • Zippity Doo’s Conditioner for Children
  • Zippity Doo’s Leave-in Detangler Spray for Children
  • Zippity Doo’s Styling Gel for Children
  • Zippity Doo’s Shield Spray for children

The company suggests the following regimen:
You can use the shampoo and conditioner at bath time, the Leave-In Detangler or Styling Gel in the morning before school, and the shield spray for surfaces that come into contact with hair such as hats, helmets, and hair accessories.
Each product retails for $10.99-$12.99 and can be purchased at select retailers nationwide including CVS.

  40. I wish they had this all natural product when I was 6 years old. I had head lice TWICE, and it spread throughout my ENTIRE first grade class. They didn’t have the nicer-smelling products now. Glad those days are behind me!

    I hope to never get head lice again!

    Thanks for the giveaway,

  42. Lemon Oil, Rosemary, Citronella Oil, Tea Tree Oil, Sage Oil and Anise – I love that they list their shield spray key ingredients. Funny thing, we already use anise and tea tree oil in our house for similar applications – passed on from a very sage old woman I love and knew well!
