Altering the color of hair is forbidden if it's to deceive. Let's say you're single, and a man comes to ask you for your hand, thinking you are 35 when you're actually 40, 45.. then that is forbidden. Same thing applies for men.





But let's say you're married: to dye your hair, in this case, is permissible, because your husband knows you well, and also you're doing it for him.





Also, keep in mind that altering the color of hair is only permissible when you're changing it to natural colors - the colors God created for us like yellow, red, brown etc.. not green or blue.





And God knows best.





EDIT: women should be wearing hijab anyways (i.e. covering their hair).. so changing your hair will really affect nothing. So you would be really doing it either for yourself or your husband/family, which is fine. If you dont wear a hijab, changing the color of your hair should be the least of your concerns (and I say this in a non-judgemental, non-threatening way)





As for men, the Muslims back then used to put Red henna before fighting, so that people may recognize that they are Muslims and the Prophet's followers.

It's not haram, sahabah did it using henna.

Whether it is or isn't I know many who do.
no i dont think so
According to Quranic Scripture Allah SWT says, I have given you abondance those of you who go to Jummah ( friday prayers ) there is no harm for you to better yourself for my pleasure.





As long as the intention is pure, and your not doing it for the sake of desire..... what is the intention of coloring the hair is the Question and if you get that then you have the answer easy..


Salam
Men cannot use black dye since it is a form of deception.





Using black to cover Grey hair is deceiving people as to our actual age.





Red henna can be used.

Hey! I want to alter this image online...(hair swap)?

I have an image of myself and image of another person, i want to somehow take the hair off the other person and put it on me so i can see how the style would look on me. I dont have any spensive programs and it dosent even have to look all that good, just want something quick' n easyHey! I want to alter this image online...(hair swap)?
Right click the image and select ';Open with...'; and select 'Paint.' On the Tool Box, select the one on the top left (';Free-Form Select';). Then going in a clockwise manner, click on the outline of the hairline (the outside line) and continue around all the hair. Then just drag what you have just selected to your head, and align it. If you want to drag it to a different picture, you have to copy (%26lt;Ctrl%26gt; + %26lt;C%26gt;) and then open the pic of you that you want to put it on, with paint, then paste (%26lt;Ctrl%26gt; + %26lt;V%26gt;) and then align it. If you do it on 2 diff images you will most likely have to resize the selection. simply drag the small blue box on any corner and resize it.


~hope this helps~ :-)Hey! I want to alter this image online...(hair swap)?
try just cutting it out of the picture and pasting it on your head using the paint program.

What happens if you no longer fancy most men because they alter their body hair?

Yes, it's another blog about body hair but this is my first. I really, really hate trimmed pubes or waxed bottoms (not to mention chests) on guys. Puts me off totally, and this is all I encounter these days. I'm 39, good-looking, single and up for fun, but I feel like my sex-life is hereafter confined to watching 1970s porn films (whose stars would never have dreamed of pubic topiary). I know it sounds silly but I need to talk about this and mostly can't to friends. I never realised I had a bush fetish until it started to disappear maybe ten years ago - hair down there used to be a nice, normal part of the package on grown men. Why has this changed, and what are we all trying to look like, lads? Get a hairy boyfriend, I've been told, but I dated a guy last year who said letting his body hair grow wild made him feel unsexy. Maybe airing all this online is pointless, as I'd prefer to march up and down Oxford Street wearing sandwich boards that read 'I want a man, not a picnic area'...What happens if you no longer fancy most men because they alter their body hair?
Sorry, but your post made me laugh, your prose is picturesque, inspired.


I think if you found True Love it wouldn't matter what the bush style was, if you were truly loved in return, the bush would be adapted to please you.


Don't give up.


Start a Natural Pubes club, there might be others with the same likes/dislikes.


Whatever, good luck and thanks for the laugh.


PS. I'm not keen on the decorative shaving in your 'picnic area' either, but have attended to the odd wandering strand when wearing a swimsuit!What happens if you no longer fancy most men because they alter their body hair?
Daniel, being one of the more mature people on here, you should surely have realised that what is outside, is outside, and it's what the person has to offer from the inside that counts.


Surely respect, a sense of humour, decent personality, honesty and similar likes and dislikes are more important than a shaved or waxed chest and butt.


They are superficial, its the inside feelings that count, well for me anyways.

I am sure there is a market out there somewere for what you want. You are not alone. You just have to find a way of finding likeminded people. How about advertising for people who like it 'natural'? What about certain magazines that cater for hairy people? Look on the internet, I am sure ther are people who share your tastes. Good luck.
you should grow up. at 39 i would expect you to have a little more depth. body hair is superficial - what's beneath it is not. if you no longer fancy a man because he trims or waxes, you have serious issues and are likely never to be satisfied.
awww you poor love :p *hugs*





i'm pretty sure if you look hard enough online there must be groups or something for this kind of thing, good luck hun xx





the sandwich boards could be an interesting idea though!

I would suggest subscribing to ';Colt';





And if you're ever in Birmingham, call into the Fountain Bar.
May I suggest that you start looking for the Bear section of the Gay community.

Why must women alter our body hair in order to be attractive to men, while men don't have to do a thing?

Really, we girls have to do A LOT of work just to get men to so much as blink in our direction.





And sure, some guys actually shave their body hair, but we have to shave like EVERYTHING lol, and we have to wax/pluck our eyebrows, we have to do spend hours every single morning to make our hair look perfect, we have to buy expensive clothing, put on makeup...Why must women alter our body hair in order to be attractive to men, while men don't have to do a thing?
um some girls like guys with hair and i know a lot of girls that shave and wax because they don't like the hair on their body not because guys want it and girls choose to wear make up and buy expensive cloths guy don't want that crapWhy must women alter our body hair in order to be attractive to men, while men don't have to do a thing?
Obviously, because men are superior.





But seriously, you say women ';must'; do all this work to make themselves attractive, but all you're really doing is trying to live up to the standard of beauty you have made up in your head.





The media does have an effect on what you think what beauty is, seeing models with makeup and such, but why not just be what you want to be?





';I'd rather be proud of who I am, then desperately try to be something I'm not';-Immortal Technique
Uhm... actually no, you don't. Men will find you attractive regardless of what you do, what you are doing is competing against other women to be more attractive to men.





Women frequently make this mistake, we men find certain things more exotic, and attractive than others, but just the natural smell of a woman's hair is enough to attract a male if you get right down to it.





So, don't blame us for your plucking and all. We have to go get all sweaty in order to be attractive to you, so honestly i think you got the better deal, do you have any idea how much muscles ache?
Well I don't wax my eyebrows or wear makeup or expensive clothing. If guys (or people in general) don't like me b/c I don't put time into my appearance, then that's just too bad isn't it?? I do shave my legs cause my mum told me one summer I couldn't wear shorts until I shaved lol. But seriously people need to stop being so concerned about their appearance......
I don't know. It unfair.


this is kinda weird, we were talking bout this in my class today, LOL.


I do shave and I groom but i don't bother with spending hours in front of the mirror, its stupid. I brush my hair, put on jeans and a T and i'm good to go. sometimes i put on eyeliner, but thats about it.


my mom makes me put dresses on sometimes, and do my hair and stuff, but i don't do it willingly.
you don't have to impress anyone by your looks, but your character and accomplishments. if guys don't care to give you attention it means your too good for them, or if its a Muslim, he would be probably following the advice of ';lowering his/her gaze';... it is just societal pressure i say... i really hate the world i live in... ask me any other questions ijaz-0_0@live.ca... Peace :D
Later in life, I'm going to get laser hair surgery, so literally NOTHING except for the hair on my head will have hair on it, yes including my genitals and eyebrows.





I will also wear goth makeup and do my eyebrows everyday


and crossdress, so there you go





I'm a FREAK and I'm proud!
Women do it to attract Men...it's as natural as breathing...although some over do it...Men do it, Men work out to attract Women...where a certain style Hair Cut and wear certain Clothes...Both Sides appreciate the care and time put in to make themselves look good...
Ive had plenty of blinks my way WITHOUT all the work %26amp; 0 hours on hair and cheap clothing. I guess U DONT have 2 maybe people R just used 2 that? U know in some culture's its the MEN who go through all the hours of getting ready 4 the females!
I believe this dates back to the egyptian era. I remember learning something back in high school about how the egyptian woman we're big into ';beauty';. They wore makeup and perfume regularly. I think men have just adapted to liking shiney things.
I don't do it for them. I take care of myself the way I want.





I want to take care of myself AND look nice.


Is it bad that they want their chicks looking at least decent?
It's their choice, really. I have never seen a man saying: ';She's got a nice fingernail set.';


Women bother about a lot of details which men don't even pay attention to.
Yes that is true, they expect us to be beautiful goddesses.


I do wish they can just accept us for who we are and let us just be dags.
there are more commercial/superficial images of females and what they should look like, than there are males.
It don't seem fair does it. Maybe thats why they pay for dinner and the movie, to help even things out.


Its also sad that they dont wear make up but still look good. Now I'm sad :(
that's all on y'all. america is the only country hung up on that. most european countries stay natural.
Speak the truth sista!!





its crazy- there are men in New York drinking coffee telling us how to live. Meanwhile we are struggling for a penny to buy some eyeshadow.
Natural is Beautiful :)
guys who are well groomed do!
You are welcome to stop shaving anytime you like.
It doesn't matter if a woman has body hair to me, I like a natural woman.
Being a man has its privileges.
Because a lot of men are pigs.
Once again, Metal up your @ss is correct! =]
Yes. its true.
idk... im not into girls anyways so i could care less what you do. if you wanna look like sasquatch go ahead.
i always wondered the same thing
You got me, crying shame!!!
RIGHT??!! whats up with that...
i know its a pain in the A$$
I don't think I'd want a man that wears makeup...

What hair products or medicine can alter your genetic makeup of your grade of hair such as from nappy to curly

Nothing short of high doses of radiation can change your genetic makeup, including that of your hair.





Sorry.





All the various products do is mess with the hair you've already got to force it into a particular shape.
