Why Nate’s Hair Really Turned Gray In Ted Lasso Season 2
By JEFF EWING
"Ted Lasso" season 2 characters go through a number of major changes, but no one has as substantial a turn as Nate. By the end of the second season, his hair is completely gray.
Villain hair color theory aside, the big picture question for "Ted Lasso" is why, specifically, did Nate go gray? Thanks to actor Nick Mohammed on Twitter, we now know.
Mohammed explained, "In the way bitterness, guilt, shame and stress can often change someone's appearance, they thought it would be fun to track Nate's spiral in this way.”
Nate gets cockier, bitter, and convinced he's not getting his due. After storming off, he joins Rupert's newly-acquired West Ham United team and his hair is completely gray.
