Talk to her, be there for her, be a shoulder she can cry on and lean on. But if she is afraid to open up to you, tell her how much you care about her and that you want her to talk to you.
But if I were you, I would also tell a parent or guardian, maybe a guidance counselor at school, because she may need help; help you can't necessarily provide her with.
There are probably traumatic things going on in her life, and under pressure, people tend to crack, and she is hurting herself by pulling out her hair. That's not right and telling someone about your worries will help her and you.
I hope you do the right thing and I know that you will be there for your friend, because she needs someone right now, and that someone can be you.
