[quote=Anonymous]Hair loss is very traumatic to young people and to women.  I think though that it may just be that the longer hair is showing a lot more in the shower. Having shorter hair may help to not pull the hair with its weight.

Dandruff causes hairloss because the scalp is infected. So I am curious why your DS is  using daily head and shoulders? Maybe you need to shift to another shampoo that can take care of any yeast or fungus on hair, and can help to grow back the hair.

I would also suggest full blood work including complete TSH, vitamin D, iron, B12 etc... Also, look for inflammation markers in the blood because auto-immune diseases can cause hair loss too. Biotin supplement, iron (if anemic) supplements helps.

I usually do an oil treatment on my hair if I feel that I am losing too much hair.  I warm up edible sesame oil and add a paste of soaked fenugreek in it and massage into my scalp. Let it be on your hair for a few hours and then wash with a gentle shampoo. Take care while washing and drying so that there is not too much tangles in it. Air dry.

Wash your hairbrush, comb, pillows, towels pretty frequently to prevent infections.
