Hair is made up of a protein called keratin, which comes from hair follicles located in the top layer of the scalp. As hair follicles produce new hair cells, old hair cells are pushed away from the surface of the scalp at the rate of about 15cm/year. The visible part of the hair is actually a series of dead keratin cells. The average adult has between 100,000 and 150,000 hairs, and they lose about 100 hairs a day. Thus, alopecia areata is confirmed when the number of hair loss per day exceeds 100 hairs.
