Emma Watson discusses her dramatic hair cut

Emma Watson has spoken about having her locks cut short.

The 20-year-old Harry Potter actress told EW.com: “Oh my God, it was the most liberating thing!”

“The stylist just grabbed the back of my hair and took a whole ponytail of hair out. It felt amazing. I love it.”

Playing Hermione in the Harry Potter films, Emma has had to keep her hair similar for ten years.

“I missed all that experimentation that most teenagers go through,” she said.

“I’ve wanted to do this since I was about 16, so as soon as I had the chance I was like, ‘Right. This is it.’”
