Crying over spilt...hair?

I made my wife cry this weekend.  No not the, "I'm so happy and awed" kind of tears.  I'm talking about the deeply hurt and offended type.  I gave Jace a hair cut.  And I found out something about my wife that a)I should have known already because she has perfect hair and b)really scared me because I have no hair.  She told me, through tears and sobbing, that hair is the most important physical feature for her.  She was heartbroken to see our son's hair so short.

I laughed and that seemed to make things only worse for me.  To her, it's one thing for me to be bald and beautiful by nature's(or God's) hand, but quite another to force my 5 year old to have the same look.  He loves it, I love it, and here's a pic for you to decide.
