If your hair is soaked with water, does that make it appear to be thinner than it really is? My edges and ends seem to look thin and I'm not sure if I need to do something to make it thicker or if the water just makes it look like that? Am I worrying over nothing or do I need to do something to make my hair thicker? I have a pic in my album to show my ends while they are wet. NOTE: My hair has never been thick, except before I started getting perms of course.

Water makes my hair appear thinner than it is. The longer hair on the sides appear thinner, but that's because my hair is growing out layers and there's less length/hair there. Otherwise, it's consistently the same thickness throughout.
Yours look thin to me. Thinner than the rest of your hair. They get thinner as you move towards the end. I can see through them, but can't see through the hair further up.

Was your hair always naturally thin or did it thin out over time? I think some people just have thin hair, just like some have thick, fine, coarse, etc. As long as it isn't breakage it's all good.

My hair was thick before I started getting perms (not super think like some peoples, but thick enough). I think getting perms over the years has caused my hair to become thinner, but it still looks nice. I'll post a pic of my hair down and dry when I wash and style it so you all can compare.

My hair has been getting thicker too from conditioner washes and using Surge!
I use a mixture of oils sometimes. Right now I am currently transitioning and do not plan on relaxing anymore so it's kinda like stretching out a relaxer.

I also have a pic in my album with wet pigtails an the ends where my relaxed hair is "look" sooooo thin compared to my natural hair when wet. but once its dry my relaxed hair is just as thick, this is the only way i know that my ends arent thining out.
