I'm female and losing my hair?

I'm 27 years old, white, female. My hair is past shoulder-length, brown and naturally curly. I use Alberto mousse in it when I wear it curly. I use Frizz-Ease hair serum in it when I straighten it with a ceramic straightener.

It's been falling out in hand-fulls when I shower. I'm constantly losing hair when it's dry. I'm afraid that I'm going bald. I know women don't go bald by my hair is in really bad shape. It's getting really thin.

I don't style/shampoo every day. I've been going as long as possible between straightenings. Hair products never used to make my hair fall out so much. I've been using them for 15 years.

Am I lacking vitamins in my diet or something? What foods are good to eat to make your hair stronger/healthier? Should I cut my hair short? :( How do I deal?

no hon try this in my moms country ecuador they say after u take a shower take a lil piece of ur hair (dont pull it out)

then open a paper clip so it looks like a metal stick then put the hair on it and burn it on the stove not (high flame!)

then keep it and continue doing this every time when u take a shower my aunt did this when hair is falling out too much now she has no more hair falling out.

some times it can be caused by infections

go c a doctor
