The eggs hatch in about 8 or 9 days. The newly hatched louse (nymph) will suck blood for food and shed its skin (molt) three times as it develops into an adult over a 10-day period. The young lice and adults live their entire lives on the head, feeding on blood. The entire life cycle takes about 3 weeks.
Head lice are very active and they will move from head to head very quickly. The moment they infest a new head, each female will lay 6 to 8 eggs every day. These eggs hatch 7 to 10 days after, and the newly hatched lice will themselves begin to lay eggs by the time they are just 7 days old! By the time you notice the first head louse you already have hundreds in your hair.
