Question

I'm aware that a woman cannot tie her hair high on her head which would resemble a camel's hump.

I would like to know if she is allowed to wear a high ponytail or bun, which sits at the top of her head, at home only?

Answer

The top of the head is the hump.

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