Why is it always the guy's 'fault' if his significant other does things that doesn't particularly appeal to him?
So what if a guy told his wife, honey, I'm thinning on top, what do you think about implants. And the wife tells him, eww, please don't do it. And he still goes ahead and spends thousands of dollars to get plugs on his scalp that make it look like a Chucky doll scalp. I mean, we're talking about it being ridiculous looking and even more so out in public. I'd be hella embarrassed to be out in public with someone like that.
Is the wife in that case being unfair or overly dramatic?
If I had a wife, I wouldn't do things that I think would make her feel uncomfortable, getting a nose ring, various mutilations to become like a circus freak, tattoos all over my body and face. You know, a thing called empathy and being cognizant of your partner and what they feel comfortable with. At what point is it too much, for those that disagree.

Here is the fallacy in your post.
A woman's haircut is, what, $100?
Hair transplants are thousands of bucks.
As far as tattoos, et al, those are permanent. I think a spouse has a right to weigh in on that.
I see what you are all saying but would you be saying the same if, say, a guy asked his wife what she thought about him getting like a Mohawk and when she said she wouldn't like it he got one anyway and she got upset over it?
Well...I have been your wife. My husband and most men that I know love long hair. To them, it makes a woman more attractive. I have cut mine all off and I have grown mine pretty long. My husband has made it very clear that he thinks I'm more attractive with it long. He even treated me differently when it was short (not meaning too). Women know men are visual...so I guess...if she really cared about your opinion, she would've kept it long. No offense.

Yes.
It's not the most considerate decision a spouse can make, but in the end it is their decision to make.

BIngo, correct answer ! If it were just a shorter cut, that is one thing. Women are always experimenting and changing their look. BUT, a CREWCUT is pretty drastic and I too would be upset and have to tell her she looked like crap. I think it was inconsiderate of her and a slap in the face, personally.
When you are in a relationship, especially married, you are part of a couple now, and you have a responsibility to make the other person have pride in being with you. It would be like me suddenly growing a mullet and letting my beard grow out like ZZ Top. You can bet I would hear from the other half about my choices.
If she wants to look butch, that is her business, if she is single, but not if she has someone else in her immediate life who has to be seen in public with her.
Ok, let the bashing begin, but I stand by my opinion.
PS, , maybe you should come home with this new look and see how she likes it !
