It's not technically baldness, I suppose "hair loss" is more accurate. But, yes, radioactivity is physically harmful and loss of hair is a common result from heavy exposure. We're talking nuclear reactor or chemo-therapy with radioactive materials levels, not "stand in front of the microwave" or "get sunburnt" levels...
