Queer Eye’s Tan France Has Brown Hair, Without Silver Hair in New Look

Tan France has set his sights on a new hair color.

The Queer Eye star—who’s been rocking silvery gray hair for much of his career as a fashion stylist—ditched his signature look, debuting a dark brown ‘do in a drastic hair transformation.

“Don’t freak out—I know my hair is dark,” Tan began in an April 29 Instagram video. “I know it’s very weird to see me with dark hair. It’s weird to see myself with dark hair.”

He went on to explain that hair change was “for a role,” though he did not specify the project.

“I wasn’t going to share this at all, but I’ve been out twice in the last couple days, and people are very confused,” continued Tan, who guest-starred as gang leader Zubair on Deli Boys last year. “So, I just need to make it clear: This is not a midlife crisis.”

The 43-year-old also assured fans that he has not permanently said goodbye to his salt-and-pepper locks, quipping, “I hate dark hair on me.”
