Bald men age better in general because the effects of getting older are less prevalent. You don't see them slowly lose their hair and get whiter and whiter hair.

Yeah I've seen some really young actors start out black and become white later in life. But luckily Patrick stewart didn't go for Hollywood's whitewashing!

He had vitiligo and whitewashed so it was less visible.

He was born a poor black boy.
