Hair loss in general can have several different causes related to one's health , but alopecia is not just hair loss. Possible tests to determine which form of alopecia one is dealing with may give a guide as to what can be done about it. This link (and there are many more, google for it) http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/tutorials/alopecia/dm029102.pdf gives a bit more insight.
A couple of years ago I did some research for a farmer friend of mine whose alopecia started on the line where he normally wears his hat or cap, and a type of fungus was said to be a contributing factor as well as a compromised immune system. It turned out to be an irreversible form.

and alopecia is caused by stress and is nothing to
worry about. It's not a permanent thing but, can
happen from time to time. I've not heard that it
afficts black people more often, I've seen mostly men
(white), that it happened to. Cathy
