You have not mentioned your age or gender - if you are a man, it is possible that you are simply experiencing the beginning of age related hair loss and balding. This is something that is determined by your genes, and there is very little chance of stopping or reversing it. Many men over the age of 35 experience what is known as male pattern balding - thinning, and eventually balding on the top and frontal portions of the scalp.
In some cases however it may begin even in the early twenties. Unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done about this kind of hair loss, at least with home remedies and self care. You can however consult a reliable hair specialist - modern medical treatments are able to slow down and even stop this kind of hair loss.
If treatment begins early enough, the hair loss can even be reversed in some cases.
It is of course possible that your hair has simply become damaged, or has only changed its texture. Although it is generally thought that your hair stays the same all through your life, it does in fact change. People who had straight hair as children sometimes have curly hair as adults, and people with fine, soft hair as children, sometimes have thick, stiff hair as adults; the reverse of course is also true, and many other changes are also possible. All the reasons for this are not known yet, but sometimes environmental factors and lifestyle could be at least partially responsible.
First of all you should ensure that you are practicing proper hair care - you need to regularly oil, shampoo, and condition your hair, and these must be done with suitable products. The best oil is coconut oil, but the shampoo and conditioner you will need to figure out for yourself, as what works for one person might not work for the next. However, from your description, you may need a shampoo and a conditioner for dry or damaged hair. You should also comb your hair regularly - hair is often dull and dry only because the oil that is produced by the scalp does not reach the hair. Combing ensures that this oil is spread over all the hair, and thus gives it a natural gloss. Finally, ensure that your diet is healthy - hair needs a variety of minerals and vitamins to grow properly, and in addition requires protein and fats. A diet that is deficient in one of these nutrients, or even one that has an excess of fat, is often the cause of poor hair quality.
