Hair can be both a conductr and an insulator because whenu think about if you use a curlibg iron to curl your hair. heat is needed. To stay in the curls, hair must bg eboth a conductor and an isulator becasue otherwise hair would not be able t saty in this shape if heat was used to make this possible. The heat goesthrough the hair an dremains there for a while.

Hair is an insulator. It is made up of protein structures that do not conduct electricity well. This is why hair does not conduct electricity and is not used as a common conductor in electrical circuits.
