Near your scalp, your hair is alive, so when you pull it, it hurts. But when you cut it, it doesn't, because the hair you are cutting is 'dead'.
The hair, like your nails, is dead. But at the root, where it's being "made",there are live cells. And they don't like getting pulled at.
It is not normal for hair to be painful at the roots, at least, not unless someone is pulling on your hair.
Tension in cutting hair is basically how tightly the hair is pulled when cutting. If you don't pull it tight enough it won't be straight after cutting for pulling the hair you pull all the hair to the same length and if the tension is not done properly the hair will not be held at the same length and you will have uneven cut hair
Because any pulling in the hair causes tension ,therefore causing your head to be sore or painful
If you pull a hair, you pull it from your skin, where nerves are located - nerves make you feel pain. On the other hand, hair itself doesn't have nerves
When you pull on your hair it hurts your scalp because your hair is connected to it.When you cut your hair it doesn't hurt because your hair doesn't have nerves.When you pull on hair you also stretch it out which can cause you hair to have weak spots.When you cut it you cut it from the bottom so it is still able to grow without damage. Pulling of hair is pain because hair follicle is surrounded by nerve endings which can detect the movement of pulling of hair. Whereas cutting the hair is just cutting the shaft which is dead, keratinized epithelium, and doesn't have nerves. Therefore this does not hurt.
It sounds like you have an ingrown hair which can be painful, so maybe you could see a nurse or doctor who will be able to help you.
You do which ever you prefer. Pulling the hair from the root (waxing, plucking) will make the hair grow back finer whereas just cutting it (shaving, hair removal cream) will just make it come back the same.
Yes it is very unfair because if the person who is pulling your hair will get the advantage. because pulling your hair can create brain damage and your head will be very very saw when the hair pulling is over.
To understand this question you need to understand how 'feels': Your hair techniqually is dead, no blood flow goes to it meaning there are no nerves, muscle etc. So if you hair can't percive touch how can you still feel it; it is not the hair feeling it your scaple. When you pull you hair you are lifting up your scaple, and you brian thinks this is not good and 'tells' the neurons, to 'fire up' and start recongizing pain however when you get your hair cut there would be little pain because the blades cut clean meaning they don't tug at the hair. Hope this helps!
The official name for hair pulling is Trichotilomania. It seems as stress is a trigger for pulling one's hair. If one is searching for treatment, a medical professional would be the one to talk to to stop hair pulling.
Yes.cutting your hair is good
