Too much flaking on scalp
I am living in Noida since past 3 years. I had problem of little hair fall since I moved to Noida but from around 3 4 months I am having skin flakes coming off my whole scalp. I have noticed this only after I decided to grow my hair long. Also the amount of hair fall has increased substantially. I was using anti-dandruff shampoo but that helped only for a day after wash. Then I shifted to a nourishing shampoo and conditioner, which also cleans the scalp when I wash my hair, but it is the same very next day. Also I had few grey hair at a particular place, but now they are present in whole head. Please suggest what can be done for above stated problems.
