Former X Factor judge Sharon Obsourne debuted her stunning new white hair earlier this week, after admitting she's been dying it red every single week for the last 18 years.

After celebrity hair stylist Jack Martin shared a before and after snap of Sharon's new look to his Instagram page, 67-year-old Sharon has now revealed the reason behind her decision, and it's very inspiring.

Speaking on American chat-show The Talk, which is the US equivalent of Loose Women, Sharon said, "I was just so fed up of going and having it dyed and I just was like, I can’t do this anymore.

"I’m like, why am I trying to do something or be something that I’m not? So, just be who you are."

Since debuting her new look at the beginning of the week, Sharon has received a lot of love on social media, and it sounds like her husband Ozzy Osbourne is also a fan, with Sharon admitting he had the 'perfect' reaction.

Long-time friend Piers Morgan also gushed about Sharon's new look, sharing a snap of the pair to his Instagram page as he joined the panel of The Talk.

Piers wrote, 'Silver Foxy! Loving the new look @sharonosbourne ! 👍'. (sic)

Documenting his work on Instagram, Sharon's hairdresser Jack revealed the former America's Got Talent judge has been dying her locks every single week for the last 18 years.

He wrote, 'Another great day in my career welcoming the most beautiful and elegant talk show host and entertainer @sharonosbourne for a complete transformation. Sharon has 100% white hair and she was coloring her hair once a week dark vibrant red for the past 18 years.

'She explained to me that she wanted to do this transformation long time ago but every time she attempts it ends up with a disaster. Sharon was very tired of coloring her hair once a week and she was obligated to since she is on tv almost every day hosting her popular tv show @thetalkcbs (sic)

Revealing the treatment took a massive eight hours in total, Jack continued, 'I didn’t promise Sharon anything but I told her I will try my best, it took me a total of 8 hours from start to finish to get her to a platinum blonde so she doesn’t have to be committed to coloring her hair once a week anymore.

'I had great time spending my day off with this gorgeous, humble, and sweet soul.' (sic)

We love Sharon's new look! ❤️
