See a dermatologist: Ayurvedic remedies are a waste of money. Sometimes there is a disorder which can be treated. Start with a precise diagnosis. The most common diagnosis is androgenetic alopecia. Meanwhile you can start with otc Minoxidil 2% solution for $4 a month. Use it twice a day. Expect no result until you have used it for 3 months.
