Beyonce’s haircut prompted a flurry of activity on social media after the singer posted a photo of her short hair on Instagram.

“Nearly got out my scissors this morning after seeing @Beyonce ’s pixie cut. I only just managed to restrain myself. Close call though,” wrote “Harry Potter” star Emma Watson on Twitter.

Some people--and celebrities--weren’t so impressed.

“BEYONCE NO,” wrote Rebecca Black.

But some hair and makeup experts say that she is setting a trend.

“I assure you Beyoncé’s new haircut will be the hottest haircut to hit America since Jennifer Aniston’s ‘Rachel’ hairdo,’’ Damone Roberts, a Los Angeles-based makeup expert, told the Daily Beast.

A hair stylist--who was not named and who did Beyonce’s hair and other stars--told the website: “I’m kinda of shocked she cut it I must say. Her hair has been so much of who she is over the years. That lion’s mane made her the baddest chick on the block.”
