Jason Kelce revealed why he had decided to dye his beard during the last episode of his podcast this week, after the fans previously called the former Eagles star of Philadelphia for his new look.
Kelce, 37, made a noise on social networks when the fans noticed that he had found his facial hair when Taylor Swift appeared on “New Heights”. At the time, Kelce wrote on social networks that the dye was for a “good reason” – and he revealed this reason on Wednesday.
“The shaded beard came from an idea of garage beer where I was going to do this song where we are going in time,” said Kelce during “New Heights”.

For the song, Kelce said that he had initially planned to completely shave the beard before changing course.
“So, I wanted to be younger. At first, I was going to shave my beard completely, and then I said to myself:” Yeah, I don’t do that. I hate my face too much, so I’m going to keep the beard. “But I will dye him to make me look younger, which worked objectively.
Kelce said the dye worked, but he came out darker than expected.

“We did not play very well in chemistry, and I ended up leaving a little darker than what I expected,” he said.
Normally sporting a beard of salt and pepper, Kelce said he was missing her gray hair but admitted that the darker look had developed on him.
“I miss my gray. I can’t wait for it to happen again. It’s a bit growing on me, however. I feel like I look pretty good with the beard of darkness. I’m not going to lie,” said Kelce.

“I didn’t do it out of vanity. I did it a little. That’s all I say. I think there is a distinct difference.”
Travis Kelce teased her brother, saying it was good if he felt a little unsure of his gray hair, but Jason insisted that he loved it.
Jason also revealed that he was trying his hair for the song.
