Updated for iOS 13:

extension UISegmentedControl
{
    func defaultConfiguration(font: UIFont = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 12), color: UIColor = UIColor.white)
    {
        let defaultAttributes = [
            NSAttributedString.Key.font: font,
            NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: color
        ]
        setTitleTextAttributes(defaultAttributes, for: .normal)
    }

    func selectedConfiguration(font: UIFont = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 12), color: UIColor = UIColor.red)
    {
        let selectedAttributes = [
            NSAttributedString.Key.font: font,
            NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: color
        ]
        setTitleTextAttributes(selectedAttributes, for: .selected)
    }
}

Updated for Swift 4 - Use this Extension (because extension is always awesome..!!)

extension UISegmentedControl {

func defaultConfiguration(font: UIFont = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 12), color: UIColor = UIColor.gray) {
    let defaultAttributes = [
        NSAttributedStringKey.font.rawValue: font,
        NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor.rawValue: color
    ]
    setTitleTextAttributes(defaultAttributes, for: .normal)
}

func selectedConfiguration(font: UIFont = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 12), color: UIColor = UIColor.red) {
    let selectedAttributes = [
        NSAttributedStringKey.font.rawValue: font,
        NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor.rawValue: color
    ]
    setTitleTextAttributes(selectedAttributes, for: .selected)
}
}

and from the respective class, you can use these function,

@IBOutlet weak var segment: UISegmentedControl!

segment.defaultConfiguration()
// or provide paramater as per your requirement
segment.selectedConfiguration(color: .blue)
