Taylor Fritz sent a message to his fans on Tuesday: Blondes may not have more fun, because less than a month after he colored his dark hair platinum, the US Open finalist has dyed his hair back to its natural color.

"We're so back," the world No. 6 wrote in a post on his Instagram story showcasing his return to dark tresses.

The lid was lifted (pardon the pun) on Fritz's new 'do, hidden under a baseball cap, in mid-October, when he took the stage at DJ Kygo's show at the Hollywood Bowl. He later detailed his decision to commit to the peroxide when he returned to the tour at the Rolex Paris Masters days later.

Speaking in an ATP video, Fritz said he's been toying with the idea of going blonde for "years," and finally made good on a promise that he TK at the start of every season.

"I've polled it every year at Australian Open," Fritz said. "I thought it was funny, and I expected to just buzz it if I hated it, but I don't hate it."

He confessed he'd "find out" if the old saying about blondes and their enjoyment of life was true, but as it turned out, his week at the Accor Arena wasn't all that fun. Fritz lost 7-6(6), 4-6, 6-4 to Jack Draper in Paris' second round, but nonetheless qualified for his second career appearance at the year-end Nitto ATP Finals in Turin.

But Fritz's brief foray to the blonde side of life was polarizing with tennis fans online, with the American writing on Instagram after his big reveal that he found the "reactions and overreactions" to his dye job "hilarious."

Fans were, primarily, happy to see Fritz's return to his roots.

"Glad we can all move past this," wrote one X, formerly Twitter, user, upon seeing Fritz's newest update.

"Welcome back to the real Taylor Fritz," wrote another, with a third applauding Fritz for "recover[ing] from whatever caused his lapse in judgement."
