I plan to dye my hair an ombre colour (so only the bottom part of my hair like 1/3 will be coloured and my hair is quite long) but the colour i want is is only available in commercial dyes. I have heard its not haraam to dye your hair in any way as long as 1/3 of it is left for wudu. So is it permissible ?
I am no expert, so please someone correct me if I am wrong. I've heard the semi-permanent dyes invalidate wudhu and ghusl as they only coat the hair and don't let water get through, however permanent dyes are okay as they actually colour the hair like natural henna. I mean you should always check with the company yourself of course and make sure. And apart from black any colour is fine.
I've never dyed my hair but my friend has and she makes sure she uses permanent ones which colour the hair, not coat it.
I haven't heard of the 1/3 rule before.

Oh so permenant dyes are halal as long as the water permeates through ? I believe the 1/3 rule is because we only wet our hair above our forehead for wudu, but thank you so much for replying!
That's generally the rule that permanent dyes are okay, but do check just in case. The dye should actually colour the hair, not coat it, then inshaAllah it'll be fine for wudhu.
Oh thats a good point, but luckily i found a permenant hair dye in the colour i wanted HAHA, but im still gg to dye just the bottom half of my hair. It was actually my uztat who told me abt the 1/3 thing and since he was talking to a class of underage teens and also he did not mention abt bathing after menstruation. So he told us about it im afraid he did not specify :/ thats why its always important to ask !
Thank you anyways !
