A childhood belief about hair

My mom used to tell me that if I didn't wash my hair, geckos would start to appear in it, and only she could help me get them out. If I still didn't wash my hair, crabs would appear as well and only my dad could help get them out. If I still didn't wash my hair, spiders would appear along with the geckos and crabs, and only my sister could get them out. Since I had arachnophobia, I didn't want the last one to happen, so I always remembered to wash my hair.
