Default Dying/cutting your hair

I was just wondering would dying hair help with hair loss... like dying it black or darker? Also would cutting the hair help with creating more volume?

Techniques for thinning hair from easy to do to more difficult and costly:
- hair cut (either short or have layers cut in or do both)
- dye your hair (it makes it appear fuller and you could do highlights to create dimension)
- nioxin (great for volume but won't regrow hair)
- nizoral (again, good for volume and some say it helps slow hair loss (kat has an article on this))
- rogaine (this product will actually help regrow and halt hair loss in anywhere from 30-60% of people, you can use either the generic or brand name, but once you start using it you can't stop or you will lose the hair you have regrown)
- BCP (some women find this helps to slow hairloss)
- Spiro (takes about 6 months to a year and some people see results others don't)
- Flutamide (another oral hair loss drug and some see results on)

I'm on BCP and Flutamide. I guess it just takes time.
