Seems like it would work. You have that one Benny Hinn guy, who started out with what I would have called the worst comb over of the millenia. Now I think he has some sort of persian wool hair plugs. But doesn't it make sense if you could heal, and fix stuff with a touch of your hand, wouldn't you invest some hand time in stopping the retreat of your youthful quaf?

A faith healer should live forever... Shouldn't they?

First of all, not all faith healers are of the Christian faith and secondly something that may seem important to one; like having a good head of hair, may not be important to another.
In the Christian faith, it is not the man (the vessel) that decides whom to heal and what to heal, it is the Holy Spirit.

I read up on it the other day, They believe that sleeping with their healing hand on their receding hairlines would bring demons to their scalps.

Because they are no different than any other person, they are false prophets and teachers. They cannot cure anyone of anything, only God can do that. Otherwise, yeah I think they would feel obligated to heal the whole world.

"Healing" and 'fixing baldness' are not in the same league!
Bad backs, cancers, etc, affect your physical well-being.
If you allow baldness to affect you 'mentally' - it's not really the same.
Baldness is part of aging - 'G-d' in almost all religions only promises eternal youth in the 'Afterlife'!
And! 'G-d' gives the "gift" to use on others - usually as a means of getting them to realise how great 'G-d' is and "repent" and become a "believer"!
Anyway, using the gift for oneself is rare - trying to use it for 'spiritual cosmetic surgery' would be a definite "no-no"!

Baldness isn't really an affliction. For them to do so would be an act of vanity, and thus they would probably not be worthy of any magical powers.

Because getting old and losing your hair is not a "sickness", it is a natural process. It's on par with going gray and getting wrinkles.

the sick needs healing,.. receding hairline doesn't hurt one bit,.. it doesn't bother him, why would it bother you?
but i do think you need some healing, say these words,
"Lord, i am not worthy to receive You, but only say my name, and i shall be healed,..."
remember it is His gift,..
God bless,.. :-)
