A woman has cautioned women who wear weaves extensively without paying attention to the health of their hair.

Vivian Onuoha took to Facebook to share photos of the lice found in a woman’s hair. 

The insects appeared to still be alive after they were evicted from their abode.

Head lice infestation is caused by the head louse. According to Wikipedia, head lice are wingless insects spending their entire lives on the human scalp and feeding exclusively on human blood.

Below are photos of the lice found living in a Nigerian woman’s hair.
