I'm sorry to hear that, I am lucky to have a wife who loves the bald look. She likes bald men like Steve Austin and Daughtry.

The Lovely Mrs. Schro hates it. I have grown it back twice with a deal that if the itching & flaking came back, I'd shave it.
Well, she knew all the scratching was pissing me off and finally gave in (I know she appreciated my effort).
She hasn't said a word since.
I'm sly for life now.

My wife liked it from the beginning.

My wife likes my bald head too and not only encourages it, but requires me to do so.

My wife likes my bald head. She is very supportive of my keeping it that way.

So does mine, big time. She is not only supportive, but like I said, she doesn't allow me to grow hair anymore. When my wife goes to her beautician, I just get my goatee trimmed, so I don't put the barber/beautician out of business.
Her beautican is really good at trimming my goatee, she has always done a great job trimming it up. She only charges me $3, her usual price is $6 for a beard trim, but my wife and her beautician went to school and have known each other since like 5th grade.

First of all, my wife and I have an understanding; she can make me do exactly what I want to do and vice versa. Get rid of the illusion that anyone is "making you" do anything. It's your life, your responsibility. I don't mean to be harsh, but seriously, that kind of thinking makes me want to slap the back of your head Jethro Gibbs style.
Now that I've got that off my chest, in answer to your question, my wife loves ME. My appearance, her appearance, those stopped making a whole hell of a lot of difference at the 10 year mark or so.

Yep she likes it. She kinda encouraged me to do it in the first place.

No one can really make anyone do anything in reality. I like to make her happy and want her to be content. She really can't physically make me do anything. It was my wife's idea for me to shave my head , because of MPB, and she really likes the way it looks on me. If it makes her happy, I'll do it because I love her dearly. She loves me dearly as well. In reality, like I said above she cannot physically make me do anything. I really don't want my wife to cut her hair short, so she let it grow a little past her shoulders. I've just made the decision to keep it that way, in return she has done the same. I am going to love her either way. You are correct about apperances. I'm nearly close to the 10 year mark in my marriage as well, but we are at young age (I'm 31 and she is 36.) where we want to look good for appearance. It's just a younger age thing. I'm sure that will pass in time and maybe in 10 years we won't care anymore.
I only started this topic just to see how others would respond and answer. It was a spur of the moment decision and an idea. I was just curious to see if other sly guys' wives felt about shaving their heads. It was more out of curiosity more than anything.

My wife as well encouaged me to do it. When I shaved my head the first time in the late spring of 2006, it was her idea. I didn't like it at first, but with much positive encouragement, it grew on me. I really like it now and feel comfortable with it. When I first shaved my head, I'd never go in public without a hat. Now I almost always go without a hat. Starting in 2006, I only shaved my head in the summer months. I had it shaven in April 2010 and decided I am just going to keep it shaven bald, plus it makes my wife really happy.

Nope, but she doesn't gripe about it. Says as long as I'm happy with it, so is she. I got a good one

My (future) wife will have to like it; that's probably how she'll meet me!

I'm one of the lucky ones - my wife married me as a sly guy and loves the look on me - told me she wouldn't want me to grow it back even if there were a magic pill that would give me a full head of hair again.
