Methodology

  1. Longevita Hair Transplant conducted an online search using the keywords “bald actors” and “successful bald actors.”
  2. Several lists and names were sourced from GQ, Good Housekeeping, Esquire, and IMDb to discern those recognised as “bald,” “top,” “best,” “powerful,” and “famous.”
  3. These lists were cross-referenced and those mentioned more than once were selected. A total of 24 actors were reviewed. Predominantly TV actors and singers were excluded. 
  1. Celebrity Net Worth was used to collect the data for each actor’s net worth. 
  2. The Numbers and IMDb were used to collect data for the number of films and the latter to calculate the average ratings of all the films. 
  3. The Numbers was used to collect data on worldwide box office grossing for only acting credits in categories (“leading,” “supporting,” or “actor”) for which the actor is best known.   
  4. IMDb was used to acquire data on the awards and nominations per actor.
  5. For the social media fanbase, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, and X accounts’ followers and subscribers were considered. Except for Stanley Tucci and Taye Diggs’ X accounts, only verified accounts were included.
  1. Semrush was used to find the monthly global average search volume for each actor. 
  2. In each category, 100 points were assigned to the most successful person, while the rest were calculated proportionally. An average for all the metrics was then calculated for the overall score.
