Has the hair fall started suddenly? Sudden onset hair loss is generally known as telogen effluvium. It is result of increased stress, sudden disturbance is sleep, food habits, viral fevers. Basically anything which disturbs normal routine in significant manner causes this hair loss. If this is accompanied with hair thinning, then it there can be additional nutritional issues as well. Scalpe shampoo is a little harsh for regular use. For dandruff you can use sebowash shampoo. Also if you have not done any tests in last 1 to 2 months. Do a routine blood test. Also show it to a nearby dermatologist for good evaluation. Telogen hair loss stops on it's own, if the causative factor is identified and treated.
