What do you do when your wife is busy at the hospital on April Fool’s Day? Convince her that every member of the family, including your child, has shaved their heads—just in time for picture day. This is exactly what Tom Jensen did to his wife, Clara, who works as a trauma nurse.
Tom and Clara share a playful relationship, but due to her demanding job, Tom usually avoids pulling pranks on her while she’s at work. “I had this prank in mind for weeks, but finding a good time was tough. Clara often barely has time to eat,” Tom shared. But finally, a quiet night at the hospital gave him the perfect opportunity to execute his plan, sending a series of panicking texts to Clara.
The Setup
The setup was simple: while their son, Jake, was getting ready for his big photo day, Tom thought it would be the perfect moment to pull the old “our son cut his hair” trick, but with a twist. He started with a friendly “Hey there!” text, a classic sign that something was off. “I think it was the only actual lunch break she’s had in months, and I jumped on it,” he noted.
Tom cleverly edited a picture of Jake to show a two-inch shaved section on his head. “Jake is our only child, and Clara is super protective of him. We drive 45 minutes to his barber because he only feels comfortable there,” Tom explained.
Clara’s Reaction
When Clara received the photo, her reaction was priceless. You could tell she was furious, judging by the capitalized, frantic text messages pouring in. “Photoshop is my thing, but making a shaved head look real is tricky,” Tom admitted. He even hired a couple of freelancers on Fiverr to help but ended up watching tutorials until he finally nailed it.
Clara was understandably upset, shaking with anger as she typed out her responses. “What have you done?!” she messaged, clearly feeling the weight of impending doom.
The Resolution
But how did the prank resolve? Thankfully, Tom survived to tell the tale, updating his social media followers with, “Well, I made it through the night!” along with a cheeky photo. This couple clearly thrives on humor, and last year, Tom’s heartfelt post about Clara after a long shift went viral as well.
Clara is no stranger to pranks herself, as Tom recalled, “This isn’t the first time I’ve gotten her, and I’ve been pranked too. I lost a bet and ended up with her name tattooed on my arm last year.”
