Missing Hair

Hey, I dont have much to say. I have a circular spot on my leg with missing hair of about 1 inch in diameter. The skin color seems normal.

Its probably from where your clothes have been rubbing against your leg and it just rubbed the hair off. My brother is in the military and they have to wear "clothes guards" that are like long suspenders that attach the bottoms of their shirts to their socks and it keeps the shirts looking nice and smooth and always tucked in. As a side effect though, the clothes guards rub the hair off his legs so he some times has this hairless line down his leg. Its not very attractive looking but its not harmful.
