Sounds like
Alopecia Areata. I've had that too. It usually goes away (that is -- the hair comes back) by itself after a few months, but to make it go away quicker you can do something that seems strange but works.
Get some hot sauce: preferably habanero hot sauce (the really hot kind). It should be just chili peppers and not much else, no sugar if you can get it without it. Tabasco would work in a pinch.
Apply this to the afffected area and leave for 15 minutes. If it doesn't sting it's not hot enough. Then wash off. Do this every day.
My Dr. actually told me to do this and it worked!
Good luck.
