No, it will be of no help. Commonest cause of thinning hair is malnutrion, insufficient protein in daily diet. Improving diet will show significant improvment in 2-3 months.

Shaving may help you. But, proper nutrition is essential for hair growth. Give him multi vitamin and iron supplements. Add date syrup instead of sugar in milk. Apply coconut oil daily to the hair.
