Did you even recognize her?! For those of you who are avid fans of the Harry Potter series, take a look at the new Emma Watson (who plays Hermione) who was out and about in London yesterday:

She told her fans via Facebook, saying, “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.”

What do you guys think of her new ‘do? I think the pixie cut suits her!

Have you tried this product yet?

I received a tweet @myfashioncents last week asking how to update hairstyles come fall – my response was to make sure you trim any dead, sun-damaged ends, do a deep conditioning treatment and use a glaze to enhance faded color (this works on even non-processed hair!). In addition to taking care of your strands, try out one of these five hot new hair ideas!
