Hair and nails. It is not true that these continue to grow after death, however, though it might look that way, since the skin can retract some, making it look as if the nails and hair have grown.

I thinl your ears and nose continue to grow after reaching maturity. And Nails after death, but I dont know if that one is really true.

Your hair and your nails continue to grow your whole life. I think I once heard that your nails grow a little after you die.

hair grows after you are mature and finger nails and toe nails probably grow after you die since they are dead cells
