Well, I just did quite a bit of reading and it seems to be, while not fully understood, probably more or less for the reason you would assume -- sexual attraction. Less hair is a sign of youth, which is a sign of potential fertility. There were some good paragraphs here.
r/askscience mostly let me down though.

It's just how male lions are gifted with a mane. It shows maturity and it's intimidating, not to mention hella cute.
