yes do shave two to three times with 6 months gap as it improves hairs health...start supplements like multivitamins, vitamins D and zinc and improve diet..

She needs to have a clinical assessment, mainly her nutritional status.

She may be deficient of Iron, vitamin D or other important nutrients.

Improve her diet ( apples, green vegetables, red meat, fish, eggs).

If no improvement in 4 months after the dietary management, then needs to have necessary blood tests.
