I believe the answer is:

tear ones hair out

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'frenzied grief start to become bald?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'display' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'display' could be 'air' (air can mean to display or show something) and 'air' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tear ones hair out that I've seen before include "Remove locks in frustration" , "Become angry" , "becoming "distressed"?" , "violently tackling high-level cover-up" , "Show frustration" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
