Keratin
Fingernails are made of a special kind of protein called keratin, the same kind of stuff that a cow's hoofs and horns are made of. There are many different kinds of proteins. You need the protein of meat or milk or plant seeds in your diet. But don't chew your fingernails. You can't digest the keratin protein. Keratin is made of dead cells, so is your hair and your first layer of skin! It sounds gross, but I wouldn't change it, though!

Keratin is a protein that your hair, nails and outer layers of your skin are made of. This is a protective barrier and water proof.
No, hair and nails are not the same. Hair is made of protein called keratin, while nails are also made of keratin but have a different structure and function in the body. Hair grows from follicles in the skin, while nails grow from the nail matrix at the base of the nail.
Your hair is composed of the protein keratin, which is the same protein that makes up fingernails, feathers, claws and hooves.
A cosmetologist is a person who deals with a range of salon or spa services such as hair, skin and nails. They look to improve someone's outer image to make them feel better about themselves.

Yes, mammals are the only animals with hair, or at least, the only ones with the kind of hair that you are thinking of. Mammals have a particular kind of hair, which is made out of a protein called keratin. There are other animals who have other kinds of hair. Insects have their own kind of hairs, which are sensory rather than protective in nature, and they are made of a different protein known as chitin.
Their armor is made out of the same type of keratin body covering as fish scales are. They have just adapted become heavier and thicker for protection. In mammals, the closest thing to it would be hair and nails.
yes it does. it is in hand lotion, so i don't think they would put it there if it was going to do anything less for your nails.
Beards grow the same way that any other kind of hair grows, which is that tiny glands called hair follicles secrete a protein called keratin in the form of a filament, which is a hair.

There is no such thing as hair food. A good diet with good protein will help growth but hair only grows so much per day for all of us.
No one invented finger nails.
