Emma talked about getting her now-famous haircut earlier this week, how liberating it felt, and the fact that due to Harry Potter filming the past ten years, she was unable to fulfill that teenage prerogative. The new photo can be seen in our galleries. http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/...watson_320.jpg Quote:
“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.”

“I missed all that experimentation that most teenagers go through,” she says. “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.’”
| UPDATE: Entertainment Weekly released another new photo of Emma with her haircut, as well as Emma's thought process into getting the cut, which she admitted she waited on after completing the Harry Potter films. http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/...Watson_240.jpg Quote:
She could have cut her hair immediately, but she decided to wait a bit. “It didn’t feel right then; I needed a break.”
“It was weird. My hairdresser was like, ‘When are you going to freak out?’ Most people cry or go into shock,’” she says. “But I was very calm. I knew it was the right thing.”
“I went to the salon alone and I left alone,” she says. “I knew everyone was going to have an opinion, and I couldn’t deal with it. I have to get myself into a good place to deal with people saying things like, ‘It’s terrible! She looks like a boy!’” Says the actress, laughing, “My dad already said that to me, actually. He said, ‘You’re not Audrey Hepburn yet, darling.’”
“He’s like that. I think the best I’ve ever had out of him was before a premiere when he said I ‘scrub up alright.’ When people ask me how I keep myself grounded, there’s the answer.”
