Chris Hemsworth misses his long locks

Los Angeles: Actor Chris Hemsworth was "nervous" about cutting off his long tresses for a more "practical" look, and he says losing his hair was like losing his powers.

The “Blackhat” star, who has two-year-old daughter India and 10-month-old twin sons, Sasha and Tristan, with Spanish wife Elsa Pataky, recently got his tresses chopped off, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Asked about his decision to sport shorter hair, the 31-year-old Australian actor said: "I was nervous. I'm a Leo, so it was a little bit like losing my mane. I felt like I was losing my powers."
