Your hair will grow back. It will take a few months for the root to regenerate and grow to full length. If we could cause permanent hair loss by pulling, we wouldn't need lasers or electrolysis--waxing would do the trick. So you should be fine. I'd steer clear of pulleys, though....

It will grow back in time. Depending on your hair's growth cycle depends on how fast it will grow back. You can visit keratin.net or hairloss-reversible.com for more answers to hairloss and hair growth.
