How Can I Stop Hair Fall And Thinning Of Hair?
Hello. I am 23 years male. My ethnicity is South Asian. My hair used to be thick, but have become thin and are falling very quickly. I currently use Head & Shoulders Neem shampoo for washing my hair after massaging them with coconut & almond oil mix. (3 times a week). I want to stop the hairfall immediately and make my hair thick again. Should I start using an organic shampoo, which one exactly? Tell any other details and advice you can.

Hello,
Apply Minoxidil (rogaine) on your scalp skin once daily, be gentle with yourself. It comes as liquids and foams. Keep your scalp clean & wash your hair with Selsun shampoo. Nutrition deficiencies also cause hair fall. Take eggs, green leafy vegetables, seeds and nuts, whole grains, lentils, collagen peptides, sunflower seeds, berries, fruits rich in vitamin C, berries, avocado's , etc.
Take supplements that have iron, folic acid, biotin, and minerals. Take food rich in omega 3 fatty acids or supplements. You can get clinically examined by a dermatologist and get treated by laser therapy or hair transplant if required. Do not brush your hair when wet & do not use a harsh brush. Do not use dyes, do not wear tight hairstyle & do not overtreat your hair with chemicals cosmetic products.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
