Hair thinning
I have been experiencing hair thinning of late. I shampoo almost everyday and this thinning is more apparent when I oil my hair. My regime includes oiling in the night and washing it off with Himalaya shampoo. I have been shampooing because I had the problem of dandruff earlier. Can you suggest how can I control this?

Change the way you are doing right now. Use Ketoconozole based shampoo weekly thrice and Minoxidil 5 % foam to be used daily at bedtime. This will take care of both dandruff and hair thinning.
