“Don't freak out, I know my hair is dark,†the TV personality shared in a selfie video on Instagram to explain the drastic makeover to fans.

“It's very weird to see me with dark hair,†he acknowledged, adding, “It's weird to see myself with dark hair.â€

France continued, “I just need to make it clear: this is not a midlife crisis.â€Â 

The Netflix star said that the switch is “for a role†and emphasized, “I HATE dark hair on me. I LOVE my silver hair. I need you to know, I LOVE my grays. I'm not ashamed of them whatsoever, I'm really proud of them.â€

“This is just for work and we're gonna go right back, hopefully, to my natural color within a month or two,†he promised.

The comments section exploded with shock and support, with one fan writing, “You look beautiful as always.â€

Another joked, “I didn't want to say it – but I THOUGHT it ! And my soul screamed NOOO!â€

This isn't the first time he has addressed his hair; Last year, he switched it up after reading fan comments.

Though he had longer locks on an earlier season of “Queer Eye,†he cut a shorter style after he saw “so many people†who “hate†his hair.
