From what I've seen, women have the upper hand when it comes to finding a one night stand or relationship that is based on the desire to have sex. Any woman that is willing to put out can find someone who wants to put it in her.
On the other hand, it seems that men have the upper hand when it comes to forming long term relationships that are based on, well, having a relationship. Not sure why this is. I think maybe more women want this kind of relationship so in comparison there are fewer available (or at least looking) men.
Don't worry about your balding head. Yes, some women may be put off by it. Those probably weren't the ones you really wanted anyway. But just as with, uh, size issues, I think hair loss is something men worry about far more than women do.
You could try the shaving your head trick a poster mentioned if you want. It looks hot on some men and not others. But don't get a hair piece or even worse, let your remaining hair grow long and try to use it to cover the bald spots. Those things are just ridiculous.
Get involved in things you enjoy, and of course be friendly at work and in the neighborhood you live in. Lots of women are incorrigible matchmakers, and as soon as you get somewhat friendly with one of those and she realizes you are available, you'll probably have dates whether you want them or not. Also, I would not be afraid to try one of those matchmaking websites.
