She's very positive about it. Very open to the fact that this could be my permanent look.
We always said that we need to give it a bare min. of 3 weeks before deciding thumbs up or thumbs down (mutually).
She's with me on that we really don't like the pale shadow...so I am vehemently mitigating that with long walks in the Denver sun, tanning booth at the gym, and careful application of tanning lotions. It can be done. (If you're good at navigating this site, find a post by "Chadoweasle"....that's a tan noggin....looks real good....and he's not Latino, African- or Native-American.)
My kids LOVE it....my son is rubbing my head right now as I type. They love rubbing it as often as possible.
The wife hasn't caught on to the head rubbing just yet. But all in all she's fine with it....just fine.
