Hi Richa,
Thanks for writing to us.
You may follow these suggestions to have better hair-
If having dandruff- use a ketoconazole based shampoo three days in a week. Apply over scalp for five to ten minutes then wash off. Also use a steroid lotion like mometasone lotion over scalp in night. Once dandruff is gone, just use ketoconazole shampoo once in a week. Rest of the days, use your normal shampoo
Oil your hair once with warm olive oil or coconut oil. Castor oil is too thick. Its better to mix it with coconut or olive oil and use it once in a week. Wash your hair after two to three hours.
Use a shampoo meant for dry or frizzy hair. Use a good conditioner too.
Take a hair cut to get rid of split ends.
Take a well balanced nutritious diet rich in proteins, minerals and vitamins. Incorporate food like eggs, lentils, sprouts, tofu, lean meat, liver, fruits, nuts and green leafy vegetables in diet.
Take hair supplement for better hair growth and to prevent hair fall like adgain or revilus or follihair new etc.
Apply minoxidil 2 percent 1ml twice in a day over scalp. Hopefully in few months time, your hair texture and length should improve.
Hope this helped.
Take care
