I've been struggling a lot with brittle hair and recently started experiencing severe hair loss. I'm a 29-year-old woman and have previously used Selsun shampoo for issues like dandruff and an oily scalp, and it seemed to work wonders back then. Now that I'm dealing with hair loss, I'm curious about which Selsun shampoos would be best for this problem. Could you give me some advice?
