Emma Watson has shocked millions of her fans with her new celebrity hairstyle. The British actress has ditched her long locks and adopted a short haircut – the Pixie haircut.

The Harry Potter star has chopped off her long locks in favor of a short cropped hairstyle with the help of hairstyling shears. She posted the image of her new haircut on Facebook, and that attracted strong opinions from her fans. Some loved it, while others didn’t.

Emma had been sporting a long, wavy brown hairstyle since a long time. It seems she was required not to alter her celebrity hairstyle while she was playing one of the three protagonists in the Harry Potter series.

Emma has finished shooting the final two films of the series and hence her hair is finally her own! Titled as Deathly Hallows, Part 1 will be released this Nov. 19 while Part 2 will be released next summer.

The new Emma Watson haircut seems to popularize the Pixie haircut which has been sported by celebrities like Rihanna. Emma was extremely happy with her new celebrity hairstyle, as she took to her Facebook page to express her views. She said:

Dear all. Cut my hair off a few days ago. Feels incredible. I love it. I’ve wanted to do this for years and years; it’s the most liberating thing ever. Hope you like.
