I dunno man, Patrick Stewart has always been mostly bald and is he any less attractive for it? It has the extra added benefit that you can't tell someone's age, so in his case he's been in his 40's throughout his career.

If I could look like Patrick Stewart or Sean Connery going bald would be great. Of course those guys look better than me even with hair so what can I expect.

You have to be attractive in the first place to be attractive when bald.

You have to be attractive in the first place. Bald, hair doesn't really matter. What's probably more significant is if people lose confidence or are self conscious about their baldness.

not everybody looks as him (or few other known bald celebrities), and not everybody has shape of the head or skin to look as good.

But I agree once baldness progresses to be plain visible, the best course is to either trim to very short or shave it all. Can look cool with good beard, but again not everybody has the genes for that.

Patrick Stewart touched on the topic of going bald in an excerpt from an interview on the BBC (Parkinson) [1]. It's pretty funny.
