I am a class 12 CBSE student. I once had thick hair, but due to academic pressure I lost a major fraction of my hair. I feel my scalp at its best on the day of hair bath but on some days my scalp gets really itchy due to dandruff. I wonder how does it get into my head overnight! Even though I oil my scalp regularly I get this problem. As my hair appears thin when I apply oil I feel embarrassed to face the people and the sun! Please give me alternatives to applying oil to keep my scalp moisturized and to prevent dandruff? Also please help me to control hair fall and to regrow my hair? Suggest some easy home remedies or branded products available in the market for the problem. What branded shampoo can I use? I am currently using AYUSH FENUGREEK SHAMPOO and PATANJALI CONDITIONER. ALSO please suggest alternatives to applying hair oil. I currently use normal coconut oil.
