Asked for Female, 21 Years

I get a lot of hairfall when I apply oil, like 50 hair strands fall off. So should I stop applying oil? I am already taking extend hair tablet for a month now. Is oil causing the damage?

Hello, Oiling doesn't cause hair fall as such until you are allergic to it or your method of oiling is incorrect. Vigorous massage during process of oiling is very common cause of hair breakage if already thin hair. Try gentle massage and oiling prior 2 hours of shampooing is recommended
