Super Bald

I learned today that baldness is genetic.  And that even though baldness can occur from environmental factors as well, it will not change the genetic make-up and carry on to your descendants.  

Unless...if you are maybe exposed to some sort of radiation, gamma ray, x-ray, etc. that happens to alter that particular gene in your body.  Of course, you might also become a superhero.  But wouldn't that suck if you were bitten by a radioactive spider or exposed to gamma rays, and the only super power that you developed was male-pattern baldness?
