Hair is detachable, teasable, braidable, and chopable. Hair grows from the follicles in the scalp. Blood vessels feed the root, creating fibrous structural protein. These cells multiply, harden, and get pushed, bursting through the skin’s surface. Once above the skin, hair is dead, which is why cutting, teasing, and braiding do not hurt.
