How Do I Manage Ongoing Hair Loss Exacerbated By COVID-19 Despite Multiple Treatments?
I have had hair loss for some years especially after I bleached and coloured my hair. But now after getting covid, the hair fall has become severe. I also have dandruff. After consulting my dermatologist, she prescribed 2 tablets, folica hair tincture(apply 15 min before bath on scalp), keraglo ad shampoo(once in 10 days) and hf-xl serum(after bath on scalp) My question is can I put oil on my hair. If yes should I apply it before or after applying the tincture. Also I bath once in every 2 days. So shud I apply these products only then?

Hello,
Take bath regularly and apply the prescription medicine by your treating doctor as advised. Don't apply two different products at the same time. It's more harmful than you think. Keep your scalp clean. Infection or dandruff will trigger hair loss.
Take food good for the hair like berries, pumpkin seeds, and avocados, they are rich in antioxidants. Take leafy greens, fruits, and organ meats, Take food rich in proteins, eggs, fish, beans, lean meats, and soybeans, etc. Take supplements.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
