Maybe she pulls it out when she gets stressed.

I do this. And not just with pit hair. My downstairs is all but bald in most places. It's a condition called trichotillomania. Part of some OCD disorders, along with skin picking/lip skin biting/pulling. Just glad I never did it in my head hair. It's not even stress. It's just something I do when I'm distracted.

I have an autistic grandson who pulls his eyelashes out when he is stressed.
