Which Europeans are less prone to baldness genes?

I would guess baldness is related to hairiness since a lot of people who go bald seem to also be very hairy overall.
My theory is that the organism is only capable of maintaining certain amount of hair and when some people become more hairy over the years they also tend to go bald because their organism cannot maintain so much hair.
Of course the amount of hair the organism can maintain vary depending on genetics, health, age, diet etc.

Baldness is related to DHT levels, high levels of DHT mean more body hair and facial hair, but also earlier baldness. I'd be inclined to say blond nordics experience it less, as I've rarely ever seen balding blond men except for the extremely elderly. That's from the genetic side of things; lifestyle contributes and the lower work hours and more relaxed cultures of the mediterranean might be mitigating some heritable baldness.

You'd think so, but there are guys who are really hairy chest and have thick full heads of hair. So I guess it depends..
