Have you ever had your thyroid checked out? Hair loss, brittle nails, weight gain, and sleepiness can all be symptoms of thyroid problems. Call your GP and ask about that, maybe.
I lose hair CONSTANTLY, but I think it's always been that way. I have very dry, wavy, thick hair and only have to wash it once or twice a week (I've never had any kind of oil or grease -- I just wash it because product builds up) anyway in between washings I can run my fingers through my hair and take out a handful every time, and none of it is ever pulling out of my scalp.
Also, try wearing your hair down as much as possible -- ponytails can do a lot of damage if you wear them every day. I have been growing out my hair for about a year now, but I have a rule that if I start wearing it up more than once a week, I need to cut it, because what's the point of having long hair if I never wear it down?
Anyway good luck with this.
