Hair and nails grow because your body is always making new cells! 🌱 Just like plants grow taller, your hair and nails grow a little bit every day.
Your hair grows from tiny pockets in your skin called follicles, and your nails grow from a special place under your skin called the nail bed. It's like magic happening inside you!
Fun fact: Did you know that hair grows faster in warm weather? ☀️
Hair and nails grow because of special cells in your body that keep making new parts. 🧬 Hair grows from hair follicles, and nails grow from the matrix under your skin.
Your body has a protein called keratin that makes hair and nails strong. The more keratin your body makes, the longer your hair and nails grow!
Fun fact: Fingernails grow about 3.5 mm per month—that's like the width of a pencil tip! ✏️
Hair and nails grow due to a process called keratinization, where special cells produce a tough protein called keratin. 🧪 Hair grows from follicles in the skin, while nails grow from the nail matrix under the cuticle.
Growth happens because cells divide and push older cells outward, forming hair strands and nail plates. Factors like nutrition, hormones, and genetics affect how fast they grow.
Fun fact: The fastest-growing hair is on your head, while the slowest is on your eyebrows! 😲
