Your hair was never alive to begin with. It's not a living part of your body. It's part of your excretory system which is why it "grows". It's the same as sweating.

However, if you meant "how do you tell if your hair is damaged" (I honestly wasn't sure), if your hair is breaking off, frizzy, or feels like cotton-candy when it's wet it's severely damaged.

What can you use to bring dead lifeless hair back to life?

All hair is dead as soon as the hair follicle makes it. Hair is a dead structure - it is only advertisers trying to sell you products that tell you that you can 'bring life to' or 'feed' hair - you cant, so do not waste your money. Just wash your hair with shampoo regularly and if you want it to shine - in the water used for the last rinse put a tablespoon of vinegar.
