In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.
The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of Gods plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.
Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.
Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.
Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It’s meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.

Satan is certainly bald. The fires of hell made his curly locks burst into flames like Michael Jackson in a Pepsi commercial.

No, each one has his own imagination of what satan looks like. You should listen to BillWiese's testimony of 23 minutes in hell. He describes satan and all his cronies in different forms. Horrible creatures, unimaginable and full of hatred towards Christians. They are huge and possess immeasurable strength.

Yes satan is bald.
He live's down the street from me in a orange house.
He only comes out at night because of UV raises from the sun give him/her pimples on his head.

Satan can look any way he chooses or any way you choose him to look.This is how he deludes ppl.
He can take the form of your dead Aunt Hattie just to scare you or make you believe in ghosts.
