Trichotillomania is the name for it. It's commonly a sign of OCD. The person is obsessive about pulling the hair out because it will make them feel better for a short period of time. There is treatment for it as well. You should go to yahoo and search in the name that I gave you and it will give you tons of information about this disease. Best of luck.
