WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Lice or Dandruff Quiz - Symptoms and Signs
Can you tell dandruff flakes, attached nits, and live head lice apart? This free, text-based quiz checks practical knowledge about appearance, movement, transmission, the so-called popping test, and sensible next steps. No sign-up is needed. It cannot diagnose a scalp condition, and popping or crushing a speck is not a reliable identification method. If you find live insects, have scalp sores, or remain unsure, ask a pharmacist or healthcare professional for help.
