Hair is derived on protein, one of the last signs of having a lack of protein is losing your hair. Eat more protein.

I'm not saying you do...
but sometimes people lose their hair due to having an eating disorder.
I noticed you talked about having agents. That right there tells me you have a stressful life. People, young girls like your self, who live lives like that a lot of the time develop eating disorders. And that's ok.
But if that is the case...
Message me. I can help.
If that's notttttt the case :)
I suggest changing your shampoo and your diet. Your probably not getting enough nutrients your body needs.

While extra hair loss due to stress is common, one thing to consider is that all of us every day always lose a lot more hair than we realize each day, stress or not. You may just be fixated on it more so because it's causing a significant problem for you.
It sounds like your hair is breaking off at the ends. Unfortunately, there is a limited range of options for it at this point, because you can't fix hair, so to speak. You can temporarily bond it, with shampoos and stuff, but when all is said and done, the damage is there. I had this problem when I was growing out my hair for grad. I just let it grow, and since it was dyed a couple of times before that and untrimmed, it started to split and break further. At this point, it's best to give it a good trim, and then start over. When growing it out, give it a little snip off the end every month or so. Then refrain from any treatments like dying, or perming.
As for stress, there is not a whole lot of advice I can give you. Just do your best to eliminate it or control it. This should help. Also, take a little look at your other lifestyle choices. It's not always stress that can mess up your scalp. You may not be getting the right kind of nutrition needed to grow healthy hair. Maybe (if you're like me and live in Winnipeg) the environment is damaging your locks.
It the meantime, don't worry too much about what your agency says. It's more important for you to take care of yourself, and be happy. They are gonna have to accept that and give you time to start fresh. Then you'll have shiny long hair to die for.
....PS I had a friend who had some unruly, breaking hair too. She tried taking Cod Liver Oil. Make sure you check with a doctor or something before taking it, make sure you're not allergic or something. Worked wonders for her. But, uh....once in a while she would burp after taking the capsule, and it would taste like fish. Just a warning.
Hope this helps!!

Just a quick note, if you're using or have used shampoos/conditioners such as Head & Shoulders, PLEASE GO INTO THE BATHROOM AND DISPOSE OF THAT SHAMPOO!!!
Head & Shoulders is known for causing hair loss or thinning. Trust me, it's very unhealthy. Don't let the commercials trick you into using it.
It kills dandruff by drying out the natural oils on your scalp. Which is the worst possible thing to do to your hair.

Buy a good vitamin supplement(powdered)and take it daily. All One by Nutritech is a very good supplement. If you are not eating properly then you probably have a vitamin deficiency which will show up in your hair and skin.
On the other hand, you should see a doctor as well. A dermatologist can tell you if you have other issues, like alopecia. Does you hair fall out in clumps where you have a bald spot or is it all over your head? Regardless of the diagnosis, you should take a vitamin supplement.
