Avoid stress as much you can for sudden anxiety and shock or stress for long time may cause sudden hair loss .Try to meditate more or do tai chi ,qi gong to balance your emotions and raise your vital energy .
Washing your hair less, like once a week (i'm assuming you have Caucasian hair - sorry if i'm wrong. Hair is not meant to be washed frequently. It starts a horrible cycle of stripping the natural oils in your hair and scalp, your scalp over-compensating by being overly oily, only to strip the oils away at your next shampoo. There are great shampoo-free resources on the internet),
Consider adding a natural oil of your hair and scalp regularly, at least once a week or the night before you wash your hair. Unrefined coconut oil is my fave,
And please, for the love of God, avoid any hair product with sodium laurel sulfate and also silicone (anything that ends with -"cone").
On a medicinal note, there was recently developed a great medicine which drastically prevents hair loss. You should go to your doctor and they'll give you approval to buy this medicine. It's a big spend of money, however it's definately worth it. I believe you should also search MORE about essnetial vitamins for the process.
Horsetail is a plant which has a lot of silica inside .:)
You are aiming for the young shoots ,because they are more easy to chew and has most of it ,the older one are sort of too tough even to chew ,but they are good used as brushes to clean copper objects as pennies .
It likes humid climat ,which is not too hot or cold suck English one .
Another food which have silica are oats and rice ,asparagus (asparagus has similar apperiance to horsetail ),lettuce ,cabbage ,opion potatoes and sunflower seeds .Our countries(Most on the Balcan ) do grow huge fields with sunflowers and each family often bake huge ammount of sunflower seeds .It is very healthy snack indeed ,as long as it is not too salty !
Artindark pretty much covered it all =)
Olive oil made from Kalamata olives is excellent (Greek olive oil). It's rather inexpensive and one drop goes a long way.
Creating an infusion of the yarrow flower AND root can help strengthen the roots of your hair.
Eating almonds, Brazilian nuts, cashews, etc is good for strengthening the hair itself.

The hair and nail vitamins sold commercially are really quite effective. In addition to the herbal suppliments suggested here also be sure to do the small things that can help stop hair loss. Dont blow dry your hair or wash your hair too often. Use a gentle brush, avoid chemical products such as perms and dyes. Do not wear tight fitting hats and caps.
