Was this lice?

[Anonymous]

I was brushing my hair in my bathroom this morning and I saw a tiny white thing on the ends of my hair... It looked kind of like a little fuzz, so I'm not sure if it was really lice. I couldn't really tell if it was moving or not Because I was kinda shaking in fear if I really was lice. I think there were legs, but they were so tiny I couln't really tell. Just now I was looking through my hair and I found another one on my ends. I looked more closly at it and I think I saw legs, but again they were kindof too small to tell. I saw almost like a red dot on it also. I'm still not sure if its dandruf, or lice, or a fuz from my pillow or something. But based on how I just described it, is it lice?

Lice aren't actually tiny white specks. My niece had lice last year, and they clearly looked like little brown bugs. If you're looking directly at one, I don't think you would mistake it for dandruff or lint, especially since they don't seem to stop moving. Plus, they lay their eggs at the roots, so they most likely wouldn't be at your ends. Also, the itching would be constant and incredibly irritating.

If anything, itching and white flakes could be the result of a dry scalp.

It was probably fuzz, or dandruff. I googled head lice and its not at the end of your hair, usually on your scalp, nape of the neck. And they wouldn't be still long enough for you to look at them. They are kinda like white fleas or at least that's what I understood from google.
