You bet you will still care in your 40s. I know I will.
Appearance is important not only for getting laid. It effects everything else, including for example your chances of getting promoted at work. It's not a coincidence that CEOs or the president of the US have a typical physical profile. Appearance plays a big role in the lowers ranks too obviously, that is why it pays to dress well, be well groomed etc. And in your 40s you're going to probably be in your prime professionally. I'm not saying you can't be successful while bald - you can, but the more competitive the positions you're fighting for, the more appearance plays a role.
Also, being 40 is kinda of young nowadays. Tom Brady is winning Super Bowls in his 40s and there are other world class athletes that are at the top of their games with similar age. Schwarzenegger played T2 in his 40s. The James Bond character is played by dudes in his 40s. Etc.
Some people may "stop caring" about hair loss in his 40s because once they get there they already lost almost all their hair and there is nothing they can do about it. BUT, if a cure comes along you can be sure this same people will be flocking into it.
