The scalp is protected from injury by several layers, including skin, subcutaneous tissue, and a tough connective tissue layer called the galea aponeurotica. Additionally, hair provides a physical barrier against minor abrasions and impacts. The scalp is also rich in blood vessels, which help to promote healing in case of injuries. Lastly, the presence of sensory nerve endings helps detect potential harm, prompting protective reflexes.
