It's also no secret that he has aged, sporting a more stately, silver-haired look for the last decade. So, it was odd when he appeared last month with the hair color of his much younger self.The new tawny 'do was a surprise to many, and prompted media gossip:Happy Birthday to @IsraeliPM @netanyahu, who turns 67 years young today!

Buzzfeed noted that a week later, his hair seemed to be even darker, saying that it "looked like he was Benjamin Buttoning."To the Prime Minister's credit, he acknowledged the gaff in a Passover greetings video posted to his Twitter account. "Look how beautiful it is here in nature, in the Galilee," he said, gesturing to his surroundings. "Everything is great, everything is blooming. A little green, a little brown, and I'm not talking about my hair color, okay?"Netanyahu on his 3rd hair color in 10 days.

"By the way," he continued, "they say that brown is the new gray. But I promise within a few weeks and the gray will grow back. Most importantly, may you have a happy holiday. My, what a beautiful land we have."It appears that his hair has now returned to its natural state. One can only wonder if he has embraced aging or is planning another salon surprise.צאו לטייל בארצנו היפה. חג שמח לכם! pic.twitter.com/FSceFYd9ls
