Hello,

I can understand your concern for the dry hair. You have not mentioned your gender and related medical history so that I could have helped you better.
In general dry hair can occur due to nutritional problems or due to stress or in case a long term illness is present.

In my patients I suggest them to have best of diet containing lot of fruits and green vegetables along with proteins in diet.

Additionally I prescribe a multivitamin tablet containing biotin and other B complex vitamins. I also suggest my patients to take iron supplementation daily.

All the best.
