Hi Maheshwari,

Thanks for the Reply, i have some more queries

Am washing my hair daily with the shampoo - whether this should be avoided as you suggested only 3 times a week ?
whether i can use any shampoo for wash ?
whether i can apply coconut oil after shampoo wash ?
Remedy you suggested should i use only two times a month or can be applied any number of times in a month ?

Brief Answer:
Daily hair wash with shampoo can be harmfull.

Detailed Answer:
Dear use shampoo 3 times a week as daily use can harm the roots of hairs and cause increase hair fall.
Remedy can be applied 2 times a month .Oiling before using shampoo is good as oiling hairs prevents hairs becoming rough and drying after using shampoo.
You can use cocconut oil one hour before shampoo too.Do hair massage with oil for 15 minutes 2 times a week.Means you can do oil massage 2 times before you wash your hairs with shampoo.And one time wash your hair without oiling your hairs.Do not use shampoo daily .Any moisturising shampoo would be good for your hairs.

Dr.Maheshwari
