I am 26 year old male currently residing in Mysore (Karnataka) from past 2.5 yrs. After moving here I observed too much hair fall and dandruff on my scalp and eyebrows. It itches a lot. I don't eat too much junk food and I have tried most of the home remedies and anti-dandruff shampoo without any success. I went to dermatologist and they say its dermatitis but even after washing the hair I can feel the dryness and itching instantly as soon as I come out of shower. I tried to wash my hair with bottled water but again no difference. I don't have any bad habits like drinking, smoking and I am pure vegetarian. I eat quite healthy food. Can you please let me know what is wrong? Am I having problem with environment or water of Mysore? Thanks in Advance.

Dear lybrate user, for prevention of hair fall follow these instructions: * do not take a lot of stress and take proper sleep of 6 - 7 hours. Do meditation to destress yourself. You can do pranayams or take long deep breaths whlie closing your eyes I a peaceful environment for at least 8-10 minutes. * add protein containing items in your foods for healthy hair growth such as take a bowl of cereal daily and a glass of milk or 100 gm cheese or 1-2 eggs. * to reduce hairfall and whitening of hairs, practice yogasana like shirshasana and sarwangasana only under the guidance of expert. * you can use mahabhringraj oil and apply it 3 times in a week massage your scalp for 10 to 15 minutes daily. It increases blood circulation in your scalp and enhances hair growth. * avoid intake of any medicines because they cause toxicity & hairfall. * avoid the excess use of products such as hair colours or shampoo. * take vitamin-e rich foods like dry fruits (almonds, pista etc) daily. * take 1/2 teaspoon of amla powder with water once a day. * apply the egg yolk to the scalp atleast once a week.
