to protect the skull As you've probably noticed, hair grows thicker where we tend to be warmest, the head, groin and under the arms. The head, groin and underarms tend to regulate how warm we are and how much heat is lost. In the dead of winter, if you wear a wool hat, the rest of your body stays warm, but if your head is cold, the rest of you gets cold too. Hair is natures' way of trying to keep us warm to survive the cold.
