theory I just realized why Saitama is bald

Like I know it's meant to be a joke to be bald. Get stronger -> no hair = funny. But then I realized it's a direct opposite to dragonball series where the hair grows longer when you become stronger, in Saitama it's the exact opposite. The stronger you get, the shorter the hair, so no hair = strongest. With all the references of vaccine man I can't believe I'm just realizing it now. Or maybe I'm wrong and ONE just thinks being bald is funny idk.

He is bald because he did an experiment with Dr. Genus, in exchange for losing his hair, his limiter was removed. Zombie man also worked with Dr. Genus, hence why he is a zombie.

I know it’s not why the writers chose to make him bald, but this is the plot armor they use in the manga
