How to tell whether the hair shed is normal or due to AA?

Hi all.

Normal person sheds hair every day. According to Google, we shed from 50 to 100 hairs a day. I was wondering can one tell whether the shedded hair is from normal shedding or because of alopecia areata? For example, I read somewhere that the hair should have a white bulb at the end of the hair shaft. Does this hold true for hairs fallen by alopecia areata?
