My daughter had a dermoid tumor removed from her. When they popped it, it had hair growing inside it.

From Wikipedia:
"A dermoid cyst is a cystic teratoma that contains an array of developmentally mature, solid tissues. It frequently consists of skin, complete with hair follicles, and sweat glands. Other commonly found components include: clumps of long hair, pockets of sebum, blood, fat, bone, nails, teeth, eyes, cartilage, and thyroid tissue.

"Because it grows slowly and contains mature tissue, a dermoid cyst is almost always benign. The rare malignant dermoid cyst usually develops squamous cell carcinoma in adults; in infants and children it usually develops an endodermal sinus tumor."

Most common occurrence is in the ovaries, on the temples near the eyes and the spinal column.
