The skin you see is primarily composed of dead cells, particularly in the outermost layer called the stratum corneum. However, the deeper layers of the skin contain living cells that are actively involved in functions like regeneration, sensation, and barrier protection. While the outer layer serves as a protective barrier, the living cells beneath support overall skin health and vitality.
Skin is made of cells so it is alive. There can be scales of white dead skin on the surface of the skin.

No. The visible hair are dead cells. Only the hair root in the skin is alive.

I do not see any evidence that she is dead. She seems to be very much alive.
The skin is the largest organ of the body. And it is very much alive at its deepest layers. However, the skin is constantly replenishing itself, with new skin cells constantly forming from the inside layers, out. The outermost layer that we see is a combination of living skin cells, dying skin cells, and dead skin cells. Similar to dandruff on the scalp, the dead skin raises from the intact skin layer, then begins to flake off. Humans lose millions of dead skin cells, most being brushed off our skin as we put on or take off clothing or when we bathe or shower. In person's with very dry skin, the dead skin may be more noticeable. People who do not bathe/shower and who do not vigorously towel dry, dead skin may continue to cling to the new skin, making dark "dirty" patches of dry skin or callouses on the body.
The visible hair cells are in fact dead, only the root in the skin is alive.
