My hairline has receded quite a bit, but I find that easy to ignore. Is there anything more pitiful than a combover to make the most of what's left of your hair? I guess there's wearing a hairpiece.
Someone pointed out that Russia's leaders have alternated between men who didn't have much hair and men who did: Lenin, Stalin, Khrushchev, Brezhnev, Gorbachev, Yeltsin, Putin. I read somewhere that one cure for hiccups is to think of seven bald celebrities!
I like Mussorgsky's orchestral piece "Night on Bald Mountain." I've also seen the title translated "Night on Bare Mountain," but that doesn't seem as effective.
I read somewhere that Queen Elizabeth I was bald and had to wear wigs! So was Margaret Dumont, the straight woman in all those Marx Brothers movies.
