Fungal Hair Loss in Children
I have known of toddlers and preschoolers who had very slow hair growth that ended up with a head full of hair by school age. It is possible that your child's hair growth will pick up naturally.
At the same time, if I were concerned about my child's hair growth, I would do some of the following:
Use shampoos that do not have SLS in them. You could even just use baking soda to wash his hair. 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 drop of tea tree essential oil, and 1 Tablespoon of water to clean the scalp, once or twice a week.
It sounds like you are making sure he has a nutritious diet. You could add some gelatin to his diet - there are many healthy jello recipes that use natural unflavored gelatin, which is good for hair, skin and nails.
Milk Kefir and nettle tea are two things that are helpful to a variety of conditions and they are both mild to the system. As with anything, it is best to start with less and increase the amount if it seems to suit the person.
Let us know how it goes for him!

It has to be gut imbalance, or malnutrition, maybe even parasites - as she is a very picky eater, quite thin and has eczema. We haven't really tried anything yet as she is strong willed, and so far has loved not having hair, and feels she's "more evolved" than the rest of us :0) "But it would be nice if people would stop asking me if I was sick, or how my cancer treatment is going." :0(
May I ask, are all these recommended treatments topical?
Thanks

Which brand of black seed oil did you use?
This remedy will not work if one does not wash it off after 5 minutes?
Thank you
