epidermis
(anatomy) the outer layer of the skin that overlays the dermis
The epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin, serving as a protective barrier between the body and the external environment. It consists of several layers of cells and plays a crucial role in regulating temperature, preventing water loss, and shielding the body from harmful substances and pathogens. The epidermis also contains melanocytes, which produce melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color.

skalp
the skin under one's hair, covering the head
The scalp is the area of skin on the top of the head that covers the skull. It is richly populated with hair follicles and serves as the anchor for the hair strands. The scalp provides protection to the underlying structures of the skull and serves as a barrier against external elements. It contains blood vessels, nerves, and sebaceous glands that contribute to the health and maintenance of the hair. The scalp is also a site of sensory perception, allowing us to feel sensations like touch, pressure, and temperature.
