Does hair ever stop growing before death or baldness?!


Question: If you didn't cut your hair and lived for the next 100 years would there be a mile of hair surrounding you? Or does it slow/stop eventually?

Growth is always dynamic. It never stops. The same for hair, except in areas affected by baldness.

Theoretically hair can grow so long if it is not cut for years and years. As we age, hair growth goes slower.

hair and nails are dead protein so it continues to grow as long as there is protein dying in the body. it tends to grow at a slitely faster rate dead than when your alive...

The only way it would stop growing is if you were starving to death. As a body is starving it will conserve energy and food. One of the first to happen is the hair and nails stop growing because there is no protien to waste.
