Could you please advise what is the ruling on using hair fibres/concealers
Question
Could you please advise what is the ruling on using hair fibres/concealers like topik, nanogen etc to hide bald spots. I have a bald spot and I use a black hair concealer which is made of small cotton fibres. The fibers in hair are charged with static electricity so they interlink with the hair and bond strongly.
Hair transplant is v expensive so I use fibres to conceal my bald spots please let me if it's allowed to do that.
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Respected Brother in Islam
If the concealers are made from cotton fibres, they are permissible. Concealers made from human hair or pig hair is not permissible.
.And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
