Who, What, Why: Can a bang on the head cause a bald spot? as scott Walker Claims
Generally I try to avoid candidates physical characterists (ok-i cheated with the chrispy cream Christie). But Walker himself brings up his bald spots quiet often and generally makes a fool of himself, so I do not consider his 'male pattern baldness" off limits. He actually thinks folks are going to take him serious when he can not be honest about his progressive baldness.

A bump on the head is unlikely to cause a permanent bald spot, but can lead to a condition called "cringeypanderitis" http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-34023654 …

Who, What, Why: Can a bang on the head cause a bald spot?

Image caption Scott Walker has spoken about his bald spot on several occasions
US Republican presidential candidate Scott Walker says the hairless patch on his head comes from a scar he received from bumping his head while fixing a kitchen sink years ago. Can this be true?
Scott Walker seems to be rather sensitive about the state of the hair on his head.
"I wish I could grow a little bit more hair on my scar up there," he told the Washington Post the other week, relaying the story of the kitchen sink.
The Wisconsin governor also brought up his bald patch in a conversation with a local paper's cartoonist last year, saying he went to the doctor at the behest of his wife and was told he wouldn't be growing hair in that area any more as a result of the accident.
The comments prompted some ridicule at the time, with left-leaning One Wisconsin Now accusing him of making "hair-raising excuses" and "bald-faced distortions".
Walker's "shiny bald spot" also boasts its own Facebook page, with more than 2,700 likes.
But can a bang on the head really cause a bald spot?
Spencer Kobren, founder of American Hair Loss Association and host of US radio The Bald Truth, says it's very rare for a permanent bald spot to be caused by a head trauma, but it can happen............
= new reply since forum marked as read
and then we went into the bearded look for awhile, then the clean shaven until Dwight with his shiny head. Seems as if Scott should have played the macho virility card and claimed that came from banging the head board.
I think it makes him look like a monk-he could appeal to the medieval Catholic vote
