AceShowbiz - Ben Affleck has made a drastic change to his appearance, dyeing his salt-and-pepper beard and mustache a dark brown color. The 52-year-old actor was spotted with the new look while arriving at his office in Los Angeles on Friday, October 4. The transformation comes in the wake of his separation from Jennifer Lopez, who filed for divorce from him on August 20.

Affleck wore a business casual outfit, including a blue button-up shirt, black slacks and dress shoes. He also carried a black leather bag and sipped on his usual iced coffee. It remains unclear whether the hair change is for a role or a personal style choice.

In September, a source close to Lopez revealed that the couple was "still moving forward with the divorce" and focusing on their children. Affleck and Lopez have three children each from previous marriages.

Affleck's appearance change is not the first since his split from Lopez. In early August, he experimented with an edgy look that included a faux mohawk, leather jacket and Red Hot Chili Peppers T-shirt.

The divorce proceedings between Affleck and Lopez are expected to be complex due to the lack of a prenuptial agreement. The couple is negotiating the division of assets acquired during their marriage, including their $60 million mansion and the production company Artists Equity.

Despite the challenges, the couple has been spotted on outings with their children since the split, indicating a desire to maintain a friendly relationship. However, sources close to them have suggested that they continue to have relationship issues to address.
