Does plucking make hair grow back thicker?

No, plucking does not make hair grow back thicker! it is just a common misconception that it does, because when you pluck or shave a hair, it sometimes grows back darker. This is only because that hair has not been bleached by the sun, so it looks darker, and therefore sometimes thicker.

No. The hair will actually grow back thinner but darker as the first answer explains. If the follicle is also removed, the hair will not grow back at all.
