HAIR EVERYWHERE

His hair suddenly started falling off his head. Dry leaves tumbling from tree branches in Autumn. But all at once! This was no gradual receding of the hairline or bald spot slowly growing at the crown. No, the sorry bastard just went completely bald right in front of his two good friends.
It was a mess. He didn't have particularly long hair, but a full head of hair becoming detached from a person-- EVERY SINGLE FOLLICLE-- left quite a pile. He had hair all over his shoulders and face and shirt. A mound at his feet. Hair everywhere, except for his head, which was now completely and utterly smooth.
If this sounds humorous to you-- and upon writing about it, I can understand how it might-- please know that it was anything but. It was a freakish and terrible sight. Completely without precedent, as far as he and his friends knew. Any laughter at that time was certainly a nervous chuckle or startled guffaw.
He breathed out a puff of hair, and looked up at his friends in the room. One stood, mouth agape. The other, after a few short beats, fainted.
His shaky hand touched his newly bald head. It was a quick, yet hesitant brush. He promptly dropped it. He was in quite a lot of shock. One minute, a perfectly normal and fairly average young man with a perfectly normal and fairly average head of hair; the next, he's drowned in a rain of follicles with absolutely no explanation. Tears welled up in his eyes as he examined the nonsensical mess of hair around him. He was not particularly vain, but this was a pretty alarming turn of events.
He blinked through the silent tears, almost in a daze. Then, without so much as a word, he went to the pantry for a broom.
