That's because you need to create the same empty .dir_colors in /root.
As root, type:
touch ~/.dir_colors
and you'll get the same effect as a normal user.

If you haven't already created the users, using
touch /etc/skel/.dir_colors
will ensure that all new users will get the empty file.
If you already have the other users created, log in as each user and
repeat the same touch command as for root.
