The answer

The majority of scholars hold the view that dyeing hair black is disliked for both men and women. Some scholars have permitted it for women, for the purpose of adornment for their husbands, basing their reasoning on the idea that the prohibition is specific to men or that deception and fraud do not apply in this case. However, the correct opinion is that the prohibition against dyeing hair black is general for both men and women, and it is safer to avoid it, even if it is for the purpose of a woman adorning herself for her husband.
