The white bump is called the hair bulb. It sits inside the follicle and is the beginning of the hair strand. The hair bulb is where the dead cells that make up hair are connected with live cells from the body. The follicle is part of your skin so it can't "fall out" but it can become damaged. Illness, sun damage, repeated waxing or tweezing are the most common reasons for follicle damage. There are three phases in the life of hair, a growing phase, a resting phase, and a loss phase. Usually, a healthy person will have 90% of their hair growing, 10-14% of their hair resting, and 10% of their hair falling out at any time.

∙ 14y agoThat black bump (which is clear or white in blonde hair) is not the follicle itself but the root of the strand. Think of it as the bulb of a flower. Your hair follicle is part of your scalp. It can become clogged or damaged, but cannot fall out.
