Why superficial cut doesn't bleed?
Whether or not a cut bleed depends on whether a blood vessel has been cut which wither depends on the depth of the cut or the thickness of the skin in the area. If it's not bleeding (e.g. very shallow cut to the palm of the hand) it is because (1) the skin is thicker, (2) no blood vessel has been penetrated.
How many layers of skin do you have to penetrate before you bleed?
Really two. The epidermis is the most superficial layer of skin but is avascular (i.e. no blood vessels). The layer of skin deep to the epidermis is the dermis and that is where the blood vessels are located. So unless you penetrate into the dermis you will not bleed.
What is the importance of cleavage?
Lines of cleavage are of utmost importance to surgeons, because a cut made parallel to a line of cleavage will usually remain closed with only minimal bleeding. Such a cut heals with a minimum of scarring. By contrast, a cut made at a right angle to a cleavage line will be pulled open as cut elastin fibers recoil. This cut will bleed profusely and will produce much scar tissue as it heals.
