For oily scalp n dandruff, use salicia kt shampoo only on scalp once or twice a week, apply on wet scalp for 5,7 mins and rinse. Use your choice shampoo for the rest of the hair pr as suggested below
For hairfall , shampoo has no role, you can use any for eg revilus/ bontress or any other. Need specific medicines for hairfall as per requirement, consult in detail for that. Use any good conditioner for dry hair, avoid hot water, apply oil only on length of the hair 1 hr before shampoo.

Your hairfall , sudden thinning of hair can be due to the condition called telogen effluvium , it can be triggered by any stressful condition , plus you might have Seborrheic dermatitis,which makes your scalp oily and hair dry
For this just use this shampoo- ketoconazole shampoo 2%
Rinse your hair. Shake the shampoo bottle, then squeeze a small amount onto the scalp. If you're treating your scalp, massage the shampoo into your scalp until it makes a lather. Leave the shampoo on for 3 to 5 minutes, then wash it off with water. Apply your regular conditioner only on the length of your hair , not the scalp ! . For detailed prescription consult online .
