As a matter of fact, hair loss is one of the most common conditions that people of all ages and gender can encounter. This inconvenience can be caused by various factors, including stress, gene, diet, or different forms of alopecia. And, just like ordinary people, celebrities are no exception in facing the risk of losing their hair and going bald. Even for A-list actors in Hollywood, hair loss and baldness are truly a pain in the neck because they're almost inevitable. Despite the imperfect hair, many bald actors still strive to make a name for themselves, building their reputation with talents and skills rather than appearance. Here are 10 famous Hollywood actors who have experienced hair loss over the years.

Dwayne Johnson, born May 2, 1972, first burst into the public eye as a formidable professional wrestler.

Johnson launched his equally successful acting career in 2001 as the supernatural bad guy The Scorpion King in The Mummy Returns.

Even though Johnson remained active in films over the first years of the 21st century, his mainstream success came in 2011 when he played Luke Hobbs in the blockbuster Fast Five - the seventh highest-grossing film of the year. Since then, his portfolio has become more and more impressive with blockbusters and critically acclaimed productions, such as Central Intelligence, Hobbs & Shaw, Moana, Baywatch, and Hercules. Now one of the highest-paid actors in the world, Johnson chooses to rock a bald head, and this greatly contributes to The Rock's manly look.

67-year-old Bruce Willis is one of the most recognizable actors of his generation, gaining prominence with action movies. The American actor began his career as detective David Addison on the 1980s TV hit Moonlighting, before appearing in hits such as Pulp Fiction and The Sixth Sense.

In fact, when the English actor rose to prominence with roles in Our Friends in the North, Obsession, and Elephant Juice, the English actor was still sporting long, prince-like hair. During the 2000s, Strong found solid footing in the film industry with roles in It's All About Love, Sunshine, Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, and Sherlock Holmes, but also found his hairline receiving dramatically.

The baldness, however, combines perfectly with his sharp face line and captivating eyes to make him a perfect cast for super-intelligent roles, with Strong even calling it 'a blessing in disguise'. His bald head has accompanied him from Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014) to Shazam! (2019). In the former film, Strong plays the Kingsman's head of recruit training Merlin, while he portrayed the evil Dr. Thaddeus Sivana in the latter DC blockbuster.

After minor roles on the Broadway stage, Travolta's big break came in 1975 when he played Vinnie Barbarino in the hit TV series Welcome Back, Kotter. The role earned the New Jersey-born a debut on the big screen when he starred in The Devil’s Rain, which was followed by critically acclaimed films such as Saturday Night Fever and Grease. At the time of his career's peak, the 69-year-old veteran still sported a slicked style of the 50s.

His popularity also waned over the years, but Travolta still remained one of the most iconic and charming faces in Hollywood. At least at the moment, Travolta is definitely embracing his hairless look without bothering to sport a wig.

Probably the best 007 in every James Bond movie, late actor Sean Connery was truly a Hollywood legend. Born in 1930, Connery was already a regular face on TV screens in the 50s with numerous U.K. films and television programs. In the 60s, Connery's career reached its turning point when he was cast as James Bond in Dr. No, and reprised the role in followups like Goldfinger and Thunderball. The signature display of James Bond with his aura of coiled menace earned Connery massive popularity. During the peak of his career, Connery sported a signature 007 slick back.

In an interview with the Mirror back in 2020, the James Bond star gave the audience a glimpse into his private life, particularly, how he coped with hair loss. The late actor said his hair was already thinning as he turned 35, which was no problem given his acting skills. He said: 'My hair went at 35. It’s not the end of the world and it’s not that important really. The really stupid thing is to see someone who has a whisper of hair about 8ft long and he’s curled it around the back of his head and it looks like a snake trying to take off. I never understand the point of it.'

Famed comedian Kevin James grew to fame with his nine-season turn as Doug Heffernan on the CBS sitcom The King of Queens.

James shocked his fans in 2021 in Netflix's recently released The Crew when he debuted a bald look. The 57-year-old actor revealed that he has been battling hair loss for many years, and tried different methods to nurture his follicle and regrow his mullet. However, he's now embracing the look and decides to shave his head completely. In 2022, James returns to the silver screen as he plays NFL head coach Sean Payton in Netflix's sports biographical comedy Home Team.

Comedian Steve Harvey is one of the most internationally famous TV stars in the industry. Beginning his career as a stand-up comedian performing for small clubs, the 57-year-old star saw his career take off in the 90s after he fronted the American variety show Showtime at the Apollo. The work catapulted Harvey into the limelight and earned him a follow-up hosting role in his own sitcom - The Steve Harvey Show. In 2000, Harvey forayed into radio with his daily talk radio show, The Steve Harvey Morning Show, gaining national attention and making Harvey a major radio personality. During these early years of the 21st century, we can see that Harvey still had a head full of hair.

Harvey decided to shave his head completely in 2008, explaining that nourishing and keeping the hair in top-notch condition for his performances took too much of his time. The comedian also told Fabiosa that going bald was a 'spiritual thing' for him, allowing Harvey to change his public image. Still, thanks to his sense of humor and iconic deep booming voice, Harvey continues to keep his charm and attract the audience with his talk shows.

British actor Jude Law is definitely one of the most attractive men on the screens. Having joined the famed National Youth Music Theatre when he was 13, Law soon decided to pursue a professional acting career. He first got national attention performing in stage works, including Pygmalion and The Fastest Clock in the Universe in London (both 1992), before making his silver screen debut in 1994 with the British crime drama Shopping. Even though the debut was poorly received by both fans and critics, Law became a coveted actor thanks to his magnetic classical charm and trademark v-shaped hairline.

Just like other actors on this list, Law is no exception to receding hairline, which is well-documented by British media. In the fantasy Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018) where he played the young Albus Dumbledore, Law appeared without his signature wavy side part and 'golden boy' image, and instead sported a much older, flatter hairstyle. Speaking of his bald look, the 49-year-old womanizer told Italian publication, IO Donna, in 2020: ‘It amuses me. To think that at this age I feel happy in my skin, I’m enjoying this decade.’
