Why do not you bleed when your nails and hair are cut. Please answer it fast waiting for the results?

Nails and hairs do not have a network of blood vessels. They are mere accumulation of a protein called keratin. These proteins are neither associated with the circulatory system nor with the nervous system. Hence, we neither feel pain nor does it bleed when our nails and hair are cut.

Why don't you get hurt when your cut your nails or hair?

Your hair and nails do not have any nerve endings in them. Nerve endings are what allow you to sense pain. Without nerve endings, you cannot feel any pain, and that is why you don't get hurt when you cut your nails or hair.


Why does cutting your skin hurt and might possibly bleed but cutting your hair or nails does not produce the same outcome?

The skin contains nerve endings that detect pain, whereas hair and nails do not. When the skin is cut, the nerve endings signal pain sensation to the brain. Additionally, the skin houses blood vessels, so cutting it may cause bleeding, unlike hair and nails which lack blood supply.


Why hair and nail grow if they are made up of dead cells?

There are cells in the epidermis (outer layer of the skin) which are alive and as they fill with keratin, they "push" forward and so the hair and the nails "grow". This appearance of growing is actually a sign that the cells at the skin are growing. The hair and the nails are dead. They can be cut as there is no feeling in them. If a person cuts the nails too short, that will hurt and bleed. See link below:
