They are embalmed bodies of the deceased Pharaohs. Wrapped in resin soaked bandages. They are remarkably well preserved for the 5000 years since the beginning of the First Dynasty.
The mummies were preserved so that they would look good in the after life.
mummies ARE preserved bodies..they wouldn't be called mummies if they decompose..and as for the hair, it doesn't really decompose. It's not just mummies. If you dig a grave from hundreds of years ago, i bet you will still see their hair. And most Egyptian mummies are bald by the way..
There are TONS of mummies outside of Egypt!! there have them all over Europe which some are even better preserved than Egyptian mummies. One mummy was found in russia and her facial features can still be seen (so we actually know 95% of how she looks like-- -5 because not her eyes) she still has her body tattooes etc...they call her princess (i don't remember her name)...

The mummifying process was completed so that the persons body could be preserved.
the religion of Egypt was that those who die and bring valueable things with them will get a better life in the other world so rich people used to ask that their bodies should be mummified and with their mummies really valueable things should be kept so that they could use it in the other world and obviously the pyramids were made in order to preserve the mummies and the valueable items.
