umm i dont know about you.... but well if i could choose dying painlessly by the volturi and dying painfully by setting myself on fire well, i would choose the latter. and yes the hair cells are harder then ours just think about the density of our softer membranes ie. (tongue eyes hair) think about it in a ratio type of calculation: lets say that our skin density to hair density as humans is 10/5 when you become a vampire the density shifts with the same ratio lets estimate 1000/500 would be our density as vampires so its 499 times stronger then our human hair but still weaker then our skin
