"Hi!
Welcome to Healthcaremagic. com.

I have read your query in detail and do understand your concern.

Do not worry, white part of hair coming out or DNA of hair has nothing to do with hair regeneration, these are all myths.

Excessive hair fall can be due to male pattern baldness, physical or mental stress, anaemia or nutritional deficiency or certain medical conditions like thyroid disorders, low serum ferritin etc.

Take a nutritious and protein rich diet(pulses, milk products, eggs).

Avoid routine application of gels or frequent blow drying of your hair.

Use a sulfate free shampoo for your hair twice a week.

Biotin containing hair supplements can be taken for 3-6 months.




Hope this helps!

Good luck!"
