Hello,
Your symptoms are indicative of vitamin and mineral deficiency. Do not neglect your diet, do not miss meals. Take homemade food like eggs, nuts, seeds, yogurt, spinach, fruits, berries, food rich in omega 3 fatty acids. You can also take supplements. You should not smoke or take alcohol. You should stay away from drugs as they will trigger hair fall.
Take care of your hair. Do not comb it until dry, never comb your hair when it is wet. Avoid use of fine tooth in the comb. Buy combs that have wider teeth, it will help to prevent hair fall. Take care of your scalp, dandruffs cause hair fall. Use Selsun shampoo. Use almond oil or coconut oil for better hair growth on your scalp and hair.
To prevent hair roughness, keep your hair oiled. Apply conditioner whenever you shampoo your hair. Avoid making different hairstyles. Do not use styling gels or heat your hair for setting. Avoid chemical beauty treatment, be gentle with your hair. Avoid stress, take multivitamin, zinc, vitamin B2, B9, B12, vitamin E, biotin, etc. Take a high protein diet.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
