    @aztek the lost: I always used to think that heightened mental powers = baldness.  Now I know it was just you playing with my head :p

    True. She did duplicate herself from his body. It's safe to say that he's not bald by choice, though I can't remember an instance that this was actually touched on.

    He was bald in college (flashback after Moira Mctaggert's death).  Those are the earliest pictures I can think of in which he's bald. 
     
    He may have just shaved it all off rather than deal with a rapidly diminishing hairline.

    He explains in the first Stan Lee/Jack Kirby issues that the onset of his powers caused his hair to fall out. 
    It was gone by the time he was in high school. 
     
    I believe it appears in conjunction with the origin of the Juggernaut.
