Hello lybrate-user hair is made up of a protein called keratin that is produced in hair follicles in the outer layer of the skin. An average adult head loses upto 100 hairs per day. Finding a few stray of hairs on your hairbrush is not necessarily cause for alarm. There are many types of hair loss/ alopecia. Diet for hair care:--> essential fatty acids- esp. Omega -3 (salmon, tuna, mackerel and other fatty fish; walnuts and almonds) vitamins:- b6- (banana, potato, spinach) b12- (meat, chicken, fish, dairy products) folic acid- (fresh fruits, vegetables) protein:-- fish, chicken, eggs, soy products) trace minerals like zinc, magnesium and biotin are important so its better to take a multivitamin. Take homeopathy medicines oils and shampoos for more help.
