I like to thank everyone who chimed in on this little exercise. Your input is most appreciated.
I tend to agree with several others that even if Lois' hair is forcebly cut against her will, she'd be able to handle it less 'trauma' then most mere mortals. Still, she is a beautiful woman and she has to be aware of the effect such a circumstance would have on her 'image'.
It seems that most of the comments indicated that the strongest emotions were dealing with the aftermath of the haircut rather than the actual deed. The insecurity over whether or not they still 'looked good' with their new do was the over riding fear.
It's something to think about.
Thanks again.
