Today, 2 hours before a 13-hour flight, I found out I had head lice. I'm a 24-year-old woman. FML

What does age have to do with getting hair lice? It can happen to anyone at any age.

What does your age or sex have to do with getting head lice? They don't discriminate. I made a comment on FML and I'm a 29 year old male.

Time to shave your head besides you don't want to be a dick and spread it to others...

Yeah, but it's a lot more common amongst children.

You should either cancel your flight, OR take ALL the proper precautions to ensure it doesn't spread. Spreading it due to carelessness would be a real LOUSEy thing to do.

No bad pun spelling neccesary, as lousy literally means infested with lice.

Shave your head and tell everyone you had a Britney moment.

Buy a hat at one of those airport shops. Make sure you try on many hats to be sure you get the perfect one!

Well, have fun shaving your head. On the bright side, maybe the you'll be mistaken for a cancer patient and given a free upgrade. I'm just saying, stranger things have happened.

Hold up your head proudly. Just make sure you have lice shampoo and a clear bag over your head. Unexpected surprise is all the leg and arm room you will have.

Well, it is still possible for adults to get head lice. Do you work with a lot of children, or are you around them a lot? Still, that sucks, but at least you can treat it.
