Thanks for your question on HCM.
Yes, you can definitely use colour in your hair. No harm in it.
But better to use standard manufacturer's colour.
And these artificial colours can sometimes produce skin reaction if you are allergic to it.
So better to first apply some colour on your skin and if you are not developing any rash, itching etc than it is safe to apply on hair.
So no need to worry much you can apply hair colour.
