HELP!! my hair is falling out!?
So i just turned 17 years old male and I have a nice coarse,thick, asian head of hair but for some reason my hair has been really i dont really know the term but its very prone to falling out not breakage or anything like literally falling out. whenever I see one of these strands they have the round root thing at the bottom so i know its not breakage. If i run my hair through my fingers its not uncommon to collect FIVE strands of hair. When I shower I lose atleast TWENTY strands of hair. I don't know what im doing wrong!
I use organic shampoo and conditioner everyday, my dad has a full head, i rarely apply gel maybe 1-2 a week, i dont make a towel turban, ive never colored it, ive never straightened it, and i dont rub my towel to dry my hair i just sort of blotch it out.
I use EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) as a leave in conditioner as it helps to shape my unruly hair in the morning while giving it moisture ( my hair is very coarse which appears dry but its not). I dont know if this is the problem as I heard it can suffocate the strands. I also have some scalp pimples however I don't know if these two are connected.
To me my hair looks pretty healthy my friends always comment on how thick and healthy it looks however Im just really concerned about losing my hair! Thank you for your time and attention!

Poison Ivy is also organic, but you wouldn't want that on your hair!
In the beauty industry, there is no industry-agreed meaning for terms like 'organic' or 'natural'. Unlike the food industry, these terms are not regulated for cosmetics which means companies can use these terms pretty freely.
Also, products like shampoo, conditioner and body wash are mostly made of water so therefore are mostly natural (because water is natural, right?). So if a shampoo is 90% water, then a company can simply claim "90% organic or natural" and be telling the truth. Certainly, this isn't in the spirit of what people believe organic to mean, but it is within the law.
Don't believe the hype: "For skin care products, 'organic is not enough,. Some organic products are fabulous, and some are not." ~ Dr. Lisa Chipps , M.D. specializes in removing skin cancer & repairing the resultant wound (laser therapy whiz) in Rodeo Drive.
"Organic skin care products are trendy, but that does not mean nonorganic ones are dangerous," Wendy E. Roberts, M.D. past president of the Women's Dermatologic Society.
