Richard Karn of 'Home Improvement' fame is seen in a new photo. Donning grey hair and a slimmed physique, he looks far removed from his iconic look from the 90s.

Home Improvement is the sitcom that made Richard Karn, and when many think of the star they remember his brown, luscious hair and full build. He has appeared in many films since, such as The Christmas Dance and Horse Camp: A Love Tail.
In these appearances, he maintained the brown hair and figure many associate him with. However, in a recent photo, he seems to have forsaken them.

Richard Karn Looks Different
Richard Karn, now 68, was spotted in Los Angeles with his wife, Tudi Roche. With casual wear, they were going grocery shopping together earlier this month. With a white beard, grey hair, and a slimmer figure, he looks far removed from the Karn many have grown up with.
He seems to be embracing the aging process and looks good for it. Although his appearance may come as a surprise to some, he is getting older. Getting slimmer and grey is what naturally happens.
The actor hasn't partaken in any recent work since 2022, and two years can do a lot to someone. As he maintained his look in 2022, his current appearance is a stark difference. If I were to pass him on the street, I wouldn't recognise him.
This likely wouldn't have been a big deal if he'd continued acting these past couple of years for us to see this slow transition. However, he's been posting semi-actively on X. The last picture he shared of himself was in February this year of him and his son.
It's unclear how recently the picture was taken, but it does still look rather far removed from how he looks now. His beard can be observed to greying, so perhaps it isn't too old.
If anything, I hope his weight-loss hasn't been too rapid, as that could spell something less desirable for his health. Whatever the case, I hope he's happy and healthy, as he is rocking his new look.
