Hello lybrate-user An oily scalp with dandruff can lead to infection in the scalp which can lead to hairfall. This could be one reason for the hair fall. However there are many other factors also which lead to hairfall like change in shampoo, change of water due to travel, improper diet, ill health, stress, anemia, thyroid dysfunction etc. This can be found during a detailed case history and then treatment can be given. Until you decide .please do not oil your scalp at all, keep it clean, use a separate comb, and drink at least 12 glasses of water per day to flush out the toxins.
