Vaseline is plain petroleum jelly. it is used on skin for moisturing purpose. im not sure how u managed to apply in on ur hair and didn't even realise but there is no side effect in particular. the hair fall is because u r trying too hard to wash off the Vaseline from ur head. and wet hair tends to fall more. just relax. and shampoo normally. if u have alrleady shampooed once now repeat 2moro or day after.
