I assume continuously pulling out any hair would eventually cause stress and damage to the follicle, perhaps in a similar manner as traction alopecia. So, this theory makes a bit of sense.

Continual hair pulling is what happens in Trichotillomania. Eventually the hair just doesn't come back.

Many Hair Transplant patients eventually "give up" and cover up the surgical damage with a hairpiece. Recent phone calls to the offices of Richard Farrell (a small chain of expensive hairpiece salons) revealed that approximately 40% of their Los Angeles clients and 75% of their New York clients began wearing hairpieces to cover up a bad hair transplant.
