I am using coconut oil on hair 1-2 times a day without washing head as I have hair fall issues. Also I use olive oil and coconut oil on skin, face etc. Is that ok? Is someone using oil on skin and head like this is absorbed in body and leads to heart etc issues?

No, it can not be absorbed thru skin and reach heart.

No problem. But treatment for hair fall depends on the grade. You are suffering from hormonal changes causing androgenetic alopecia causing hair fall. It's completely stoppable even regrowth of hair is possible with certain medications without any side effects. Treatment depends on the grade of hair loss. So, it's a must for diagnosing which grade, you are in for an effective treatment. Please send photos of your head, by direct online consultation for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
