No. You have to get a shampoo from the drugstore made for lice and follow the directions. You should wash your sheets and pillows. Get new hair brushes or clean them. The lice have nits (eggs) and unless you kill them you will keep having the lice show up.

Can they? Yes. Should they - Depends. If it is summer, it is hot, or the girl in question just wants to look different then yes, buzz it all off.

If it's winter or early spring then no, either cut it short (much better idea) or use a pesticide shampoo (damage and weaken the hair).
