Provident Mom Picks: V Comb

Head lice and nits are one of the common health problems encountered at home, especially among children.

My daughter Aisha once had a problem with head lice and it began when she began studying in Kindergarten. I don’t know where she got it but we all know that head lice are like a virus. We can get it because of our interaction with people who have it. It took me a year to look for a remedy for it. Don’t get me wrong, we tried different kinds of shampoos to treat the problem and we use a “suyod”- a fine-teeth comb very popular here in the Philippines to remove them from the hair.

And then while I was researching online, I once saw an advertisement about this product allegedly effective in eliminating head lice and nits, V-Comb by Licetec. I watched videos and read reviews about it and I eventually was convinced to buy.

I searched were to shop for it and it can be bought in online stores like Shopee. Personally, I bought mine from this store.

The V Comb is electrically-operated and works like a suyod but with an added feature which is the vacuum. It was difficult to use it at the first try and it may seem to appear that it doesn’t work but after a few tries, I managed to get used to it.

True enough, it removed even the lice that stick to the hair. Even the dead lice that are hard to remove were vacuumed by the V Comb. It will take patience to get the hang of it, but it works well.

The only thing that you need to be careful of with this product is the comb itself because it sometimes removes or cut some hairs, especially the one that are tangled. Just comb your hair well before using it.

I recommend this to those who have problems with head lice and nits.

There were a lot of adjustments when it comes to work since everything has shifted to the new normal. Curse the pandemic! Almost 2 years ago, I created a blogpost on Why and How to Start Investing in PAG-IBIG MP2 Savings Program but honestly, I wasn't able to start saving through the MP2 because I really thought that I still need to submit the application form to the PAG-IBIG office to start paying the contributions.

Why and How to Start Investing in PAG-IBIG MP2 Savings Program?

It's been a while since I wanted to invest in PAG-IBIG MP2 , a voluntary savings program with a 5-year term for all PAG-IBIG Fund members which earns dividends. You can get your dividends either annually or after the term (5-year). The higher you save, the more dividend you will get. From the year 2016 to 2018 the average MP2 dividend rate in the past three years (2016-2018) is at 7.65%. It's not that bad compared to a regular savings program in banks. I finally got the chance to "enroll" myself. It is easier nowadays because you can start your application online. If you are interested, follow the instructions below on how you can also start investing PAG-IBIG's MP2. 1.

Be Financially Free.

I was not a believer of insurance. I was not into investing. I did not know about mutual funds or VULs. My mindset changed when a co-teacher of mine a couple of years back was diagnosed with cancer and we all knew that it was a difficult time for her, physically and more importantly, financially. Hearing her experiences with the costs of hospitalization and medicines made me rethink on how I could prepare for the future. You know, when a family member gets sick, we don't have choice but to spend lots of money to pay for healthcare bills. There are even those who would sell their properties just to pay for it. Some would go into debts. They get stressed and they get sick. It's a cycle. So, I did my research and I learned about this so-called "Financial Freedom" and it does not only take a simple savings account so you can say you are financially free. According to Cash Cow Couple (one of the blogs I read when it comes to topics like this), " Being f...
