Oh yea, lets see.... Ticks can go pretty deep in the skin. They can get in your hair and go pretty deep into your scalp, but not so deep to where you can't get it out. Good enough? That's about all I know. I'm not an expert. Haha. :)

Can a tick burrow under a humans skin?

Yes, they do, I had one today. I could only tell because, when I moved the skin just right, I could see something black in the ultra tiny hole. The area around the hole also looked dark (maybe the tick or blood) and was sore. A tick will go in only as far as its mouth-parts are long. That is, it doesn't go in very far. If you pull the tick off and see black, that is mouth-parts left in your skin.
