How can I get my hair to recover?

Question: I'm African American (I'm gonna say that first and foremost 'cause that makes a huge difference) and my hair is wavy but thin, especially around the front and it's getting to the point where I can't put my hair in certain styles. I think it became thin because I always use to put my hair in tight ponytails but I'm slowly but surely getting away from that. Anyway, how can I make it thick again? I was told to use this treatment called fermodyl but it hasn't been working. Does anyone else have any ideas?

Answers:
you should deep condition you hair twice a week with doo gro deep condtioner. it helps to revitilize and repair the hair. you should also use the anti-thinning shampoo it help the thicken the hair and to stop the thinning.also the antibreakage hair lotion, revitilizer grease and oils. also try protectiv they all work. you can find them at any black hair care stores because regular stores do not carry the whole line.

Other Answers:
African American hair is wiry and thin. It is rarely thick. The three main areas of hair are the inner Modula, the middle Cortex and the outter Cuticle. To make hair thicker, you would have to change the structure of the Cortex which is impossible. It is genetic. That being said, the Cortex is made up of 9 amino acids in which 2 of them, your body can not produce, it must get from diet. Amino Acids are a protein so what's that mean? Make sure you eat enough protein. It is the building block of strength for your entire body. Your body can not produce protein, it must get it from food sources. Hair breaking (which is what you experienced pulling your hair back) can be strengthened with moisture. So make sure that your shampoo and conditioner are MOISTURE rich, especially for AA hair. It lacks moisture to begin with because the Cortex can not hold as much as coarse hair. Bottom line: use moisture shampoos and conditioners to help prevent breakage, eat a diet rich in healthy proteins and healthy fats (for added moisture) such as olive oil, nuts, peanut butter (natural kind), avocados, yogurt. And thirdly, you can't change the structure so anyone that tells you that you can, is lying and misinformed. Moisture prevents breakage.
