*Steve Harvey is sporting a new style these days… as he has done away with his iconic mustache in favor of a full salt-and-pepper beard, ET online reports.
The media mogul explained to ET’s Kevin Frazier why he switched up his signature look, admitting: “Well this year you know we launched a new season so every now and then I reinvent myself,” the 61-year-old host and comedian explained.
Harvey also noted that his thick, black ‘stache was only prominent because he’s bald.
“When I was 49, about to turn 50, I went bald,” he recalled. “I always had a mustache, you just didn’t know I had one ’cause I had hair too.”
Harvey tried rocking a full beard last year but he “wasn’t confident” enough to pull it off in public.

“Last year was the first time I had a summer off, so I didn’t shave. I grew a beard out,” he shared. “But last year there wasn’t enough grey in the mustache yet. It looked like I had stuff in it. So I had to wait another year.”
He continued: “This year, when I didn’t color it, it was a lot more grey so I’m flipping the script. I’m gonna see how the beard game go… I’m gonna just do something different. I’m gonna stay fly till I die.”
On whether or not he continues to sport the beard…Â
“I might keep it, I might not, I don’t know, man. It’s really up to the wife,” Harvey said, referring to his wife of seven years, Marjorie. “The woman you sleepin’ with determines what you do.”
And right now, he’s staying busy by hosting “Celebrity Family Feud” and serving as host and producer on “Little Big Shots.”
“I get the same 24 hours that everybody else get, God don’t give no more hours, but I pack ’em in, man,” Harvey explained. “I care about every minute of the day. You’ll be successful if you get control of your time.”
He added: “If you take every minute of the day and monitor every single minute of the day, you’d be stunned at what you can accomplish. But you gotta cut the BS out of your life. You can’t be at the club every time it open, you can’t make all the happy hours.”
The new season of “Steve” premieres Sept. 4 on NBC.
