Answer

Q: What does the Shariáh say with regard to dying hair? Is it permissible to
dye one’s hair?
A: Pure black dye is not permissible. Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi
Wasallam) said, “There will be people who will come later (in my Ummah) and
apply black dye. They will not even smell the fragrance of paradise.” (Abu
Daawood). However, it is permissible for a Mujaahid (warrior) to apply black
dye in order to give the impression of being young. (Jawahirul Fiqh vol2
pg421)
To dye the hair any other colour besides black e.g. Mehndi or Katm (type of
grass) is permissible. This was the practice of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu
Álayhi Wasallam) and the Sahaaba (Radhiyallaahu Ánhum). (Jawahirul Fiqh vol2
pg421)

A female may design her hair with the condition she does not follow the
custom of the Kuffaar and does not expose her hair before Ghayr Mahaarim
(males permitted to marry)
