Goosebumps are the result of tiny muscles flexing in the skin, making hair follicles rise up a bit. This causes hairs to stand up. Goosebumps are an involuntary reaction: nerves from the sympathetic nervous system the nerves that control the fight or flight response control these skin muscles.
When you’re cold, or you experience a strong emotion, such as fear, shock, anxiety, sexual arousal or even inspiration, goosebumps can suddenly pop up all over the skin. They occur when the tiny muscle located at the base of each hair follicle contracts, causing the hair to stand on end.
