Some McDreamy fans are not too happy with his new look.
The Grey's Anatomy alum traded his famous salt-and-pepper locks for a shorter 'do, courtesy of his own clippers.
Dempsey's wife Jillian posted a video of the event on Instagram.
She captioned the post:
"Change is good!"
"Have you ever buzzed your hair?"
"Watch @patrickdempsey use clippers to eliminate the dyed hair from a character role and start fresh!"
"P.S. My Roadie was standing by to help give it some edge for styling."
Many viewers were completely devastated.

Jillian revealed to People:
"Patrick recently dyed his hair platinum for a project [his upcoming film 'Ferrari'], and even though he colored his hair back, it wasn't the same natural 'salt-and-pepper' color that we all know and love."
Yes, yes we do.
She finished:
"In order to let his color grow back naturally, we needed to give him a fresh and short start."
So it seems that the iconic Dempsey 'do will make a comeback.
*Cue collective sigh of relief*
