    Will conditioner repair extreme loss of thickness to damaged hair?
    - that has been damaged from weaving and being pulled too tight for years. Hair that was so thin its nearly see through at the temples but is still growing? Why does blow drying thin and damage hair?
    My hair was thick, tough and curly, now its thinner, light soft and weaker. But it is still growing. Will the thickness come back and be fully restored?
    Thanks.

    Conditioner will not thicken the hair, it just conditions and smooths out the hairs shaft.

    Pulling the hair too tight causes hair loss. Especially the sides. When blowdrying, it causes the hairs cuticle layers to wear away so therefore your hair becomes rough, damaged and sometimes thinner.

    Avoid using heated appliances, pulling the hair too tight, and take vitamin B complex tablets (make sure it contains biotin). Also, if you colour or perm your hair, best to stop that too. There is also some products Nioxin that are formulated for thinning hair which you should check out.

    Not sure if your hair will be returned to it's former glory, but doing all the above will really help and would give you a good chance of getting your hair back.
