Because there are no nerve endings, kinda like when you cut your hair. Now if we cut our finger it really hurts because of the nerve endings.

- Additionally, your fingernail themselves are dead tissue. That is why they have no nerves.

fingernails are dead skin cells, so the nerves are dead therefore you cant feel it.

fingernails, like hair and teeth, are not alive. they are simply grown out cartilidge, and thus it feels like cutting plastic off your body.

- Fingernails are made of keratin, not cartilage.
