A conditioner is applied to chemically processed hair to restore some of the:

  1. hair length

  2. natural oils

  3. natural color

  4. hair density

The correct answer is: natural oils

When chemically processing hair, the hair becomes damaged, dry, and stripped of its natural oils. Applying a conditioner helps to replenish and restore these oils to the hair, making it softer and smoother. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because a conditioner does not affect hair length, color, or density. These are characteristics determined by genetics and cannot be changed by applying a conditioner.
