this kind of disorder is described as an involuntary habit of pulling one's own hair whenever the person is bored or when in an activity wherein one's body is inactive, e.g., watching T.V., etc.

What the person above me says. It's actually more common than you'd imagine, and some sufferers consume the hair; a girl had to have an operation to remove an actual hairball from her stomach in the UK a few years back. It's not due to boredom; it's a debiliating type system of anxiety disorder
