Essentially, skin and hair are made of the same protein. Of course, the similarities don’t extend to how they look, but they are built from keratin - a type of protein that forms skin and hair cells.
The skin has three layers. The upper layer is called the epidermis, below which is the dermis and the subcutaneous tissue. The dermis is where hair follicles (and blood vessels, sweat glands and nerve endings) are.
Similarly, the hair consists of three parts. The hair shaft (which sticks out from the skin’s surface), the root (a soft bulb at the base of hair) and the follicle (a sac-like pit from which the hair grows). The actual hair growth happens at the bottom of the follicle. When cells multiply and make keratin, they are pushed up the follicle and out of the skin’s surface as a strand of hair.
