Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Shaving head does not help in hair. I could not get the frequency of anti dandruff shampoo application from your answer.
In my opinion, you might be suffering from Seborrheic dermatitis which causes your hair fall.
Use Ketoconazole shampoo daily for a week. In case of improvement, you can later reduce the frequency of application.
Do consult your Dermatologist if you do not get any improvement in 2 weeks with the above treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Siva Subramanian.
