thinning hair

Hi! I've been here in Doha for almost 4 months now. Eversince I stayed here, my hair started to become thin. I know losing a hundred hair strands a day is normal. But now, it is tremendous. It scares me. I believe it has something to do with the water here, with how it is treated. What do you think? Please let me know.

i had the same problem once i changed water but it kept falling

i tried many shampoos but there was this product called "thicker hair from uk hair solutions" that applied on my skin once a week and it stoped the hair loss immediatly after 2 applications et hair started getting thicker after few weeks.

check their website www.ukhairsolutions.com , they ship to Doha but you can also find it in some pharmacies

Thank you for all your replies! At least I realized I am not the only one who experiences this. I am not as scared anymore. As for your advices, I can consider them esp the use of mineral water and aloe vera shampoo. Thanks everyone! Have a great day ahead!

Water is the real problem. Use Aloe Vera shampoo and aloe vera conditioner with Jojoba oil (a herbal product made by usa) its really effective. IF u need one let me know u i'll help u out.

It's not a new problem for the people who stays in MIDDLE EAST..

It's even difficult for doctors to give proper medication for hair loosing problem..

I'd seen one doctor in APOLLO CLINIC and continued medicines for 1 year but no use later..Hair started falling again..

Better have proper diet, avoid using hot waters..Try to wash your hairs with the bottled waters..People even say that using JOHNSON shampoo may/could do wonders..Try using that..

I've stopped thinking about my HAIR LOSS now..Take it easy and don't think much for it if you want to work peacefully in DOHA for few more years.:)))..ok

i have experienced the same. it is definitely due to the water here. i am using the same shampoo and conditioner that i used in Pakistan but here the hair fall is increasing day by day.

i do not use hot water, instead store water to wash my hairs but the problem still remians.

I recently went to my doctor and he told me about a company that fits filters in the taps that you use to shower with you have to change the filter every 6mths..he also recommended that I get a filter on my kitchen taps and that I shouldnt drink and cook with mineral water all the time that I had to mix the consumption.bcs I developed kidney stones from drinking mineral water for 7yrs..also some mineral water has too much sodium and chlorine he recommended NESTLE mineral water for drinking and filtered tap water for cooking.

I dont have the co. details with me but as soon as I do I will post them..also try changing ur shampoo and Cond to professional like loreal
