Roddenbery originally didn't like the idea of a bald captain and made Stuart audition in a wig. After the initial audition he decided that Stuart was perfect no matter how much hair he had. There are a few photos online of him in the wig and man does he look goofy.

That doesn't look nearly as bad as I thought it would. I never had a problem with Picard being bald though. Even as a kid he was my favorite character on the show.
