Question

Can women apply black colour dye? If not then what is the alternative method for getting black colour hair.

Answer

Applying black dye is not permissible for men and women. The hadith has prohibited using black dye. One may use brown or brownish black dye.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
