no, since your body shuts down so does hair and fingernail growth. the dead would look really scary if that didn't happen! your hair and nails also need nutrients and a functioning brain to grow.

Yes, I know some people say they can't because your body shuts down. But your fingernails really aren't connected to your body they are protein growth! The stop when you rot! I don't know about hair though! But yes fingernails do!

No, that isn't true because your heart isn't beating anymore so nothing can grow without blood and ur heart beating.

No, but as your body decomposes, it looks like they have grown. Because your tissue and skin begin to shrink.
