Lack of nutrients:
Here we discuss the nutrition of the body. We always think that we took enough food for the body but getting enough food doesn't mean we are getting enough nutrition from that food. Our body is made from 70% of water other 30% of other tissues. That's the reason doctors always recommended taking 8 glasses of water per day. If we don't then the body faces many difficulties which result in digestion problems, hair loss, etc. According to Ayurveda, our hairs are UPDHATU OF ASTHI DHATU (BONES), if your asthi dhatu getting proper nourishment.
Only then your hairs will be nourished; so hairs get nourishment after nourishment of other body tissues.
Hence we should get nutritious food which is high in protein, calcium, iron, minerals, etc as well as your digestive ability should be well to properly absorb all nutrition from the food. Otherwise, it won't get proper nourishment due to lack of absorption even when you are getting nutritional food.
Lifestyle Disorder:
Our lifestyle plays important role in the hair fall issue. Rural people are very lucky for having peaceful life along with fresh air, less pollution, but in this case, urban people are not as luckier as rural people, they have to face stress, pollution, unhealthy food, etc are all causes hair fall.

Sometimes only stress can create major threatening health problem which is not possible to resolve by medicines only, thus we have to manage and reduce stress with the help of meditation.
The most effective stress fighter in Ayurveda is SHIRODHARA-STRESSBUSTER AND HORMONAL BALANCING PROCESS. It is a form of the most effective form of meditation in which warm medicated oil is rhythmically poured on the forehead for 45 minutes.
