    Have you gone to a doctor?

    If you have dandruff, use "Selsun Blue Medicated". That's what my dermatologist recommended I use for flaky/itchy scalp. I bought the one with the red cap. My head stopped itching after just one use, although it's only been 2 days since I used it. But it works.

    I have never heard of hair loss due to water. Unless you're like washing your head with extremely hot water on a daily basis.

    Default Real Stress

    Identifying the problem is half done to solve it , but this is a mystry in my case
    Its really difficult to understand the problem that why the hair loss is more in fulda , Germany .
    I switched to Nizrol 2 percent(1 week back) , because of lot of dandruff on my head.
    Still coming to Fulda Germany(3 months now) has increased my hair loss to 130 -140 hairs per day .
    Eveything same (shampoo, oils, washing habits, eating at home,excersing) (as in Pakistan) but why the hair loss is manifold.
    Guys , i request for your kind help.

    I actually bought a filter which attaches to my shower head (which I bought for around $20) and lasts approximately 2 years.

    I have to say that chlorine, deposits, and all the other shit in the water makes my hair feel very weighed down and feels like crap. After I've installed the filter, my hair feels great and is very very manageable. Also, I noticed it helped with my itchy scalp.

    I would recommend anyone on a serious regimen for hairloss to add this as a icing on the cake type treatment.

    My poor Paki friend, are you under stress?

    A big move like this and an obvious career change along with the social isolation they bring could have been a trigger for your hairloss to accelerate.

    Both of my NW switches (From 1 to 2, from 2 to almost 3) came after disastrous relationships with women I loved very much. After I recovered from the trauma, the hairloss slowed down again.

    So unless you're on Cloud Happy ****ing Nine, stress is your problem and leave volcanic water alone
