Kitty litter that is made from clay or bentonite is slightly radioactive. GK Hart/Vikki Hart, Getty Images Cat litter is sufficiently radioactive that it can set off radiation alerts at international border checkpoints. Actually, it's not all cat litter you need to worry about -- only the stuff made from clay or bentonite.
Deep folliculitis is usually more severe. Follicles are densest on your scalp, and they occur everywhere on your body except your palms, soles, lips and mucous membranes. Damaged follicles are at risk of infection. The most common causes of follicle damage are: Friction from shaving or tight clothing.
The thicker the hair, the more the number of sebaceous glands there are. Also attached to the follicle is a tiny bundle of muscle fiber, called the arrector pili, which is responsible for causing the follicle lissis to become more perpendicular (upright) to the surface of the skin.tem cells are at the junction of the arrector and the follicle, and are principally responsible for the ongoing hair production during a process known as the Anagen stage. The average growth rate of healthy hair follicles on the scalp is nearly 0.5 inches (13 mm) per month.
