Get blood work if possible. My went to my dermatologist and she told me to get tested for vitamin and iron deficiencies. Then she prescribed me hair meds and I’ve been on them since.

Scalp massages alone work better than oiling. Oil actually clogs your pores and cause hair fall

second this! ferritin should be over 125 and if it’s not it can lead to hairloss. don’t supplement without testing though. if you’re in the us you can get affordable testing through jasonhealth.com

Minoxidil works 100% but the thing is your hair sheds after you stop using it. Viviscal is a good recommendation tho its drug free

shedding depends on the cause of the hairloss. definitely not the case for all causes
