What is the ruling on a woman cutting her hair in layers to imitate one of the actresses?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: What is your view on some women cutting their hair in graduated layers from the shoulders to the top of the head, imitating one of the sinful actresses in doing so?

Answer:
This is not permissible if there is imitation involved. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It also involves messing with the hair that Allah made beautiful for the woman; Allah made it beautiful for the woman. Then there is the problem if she wants to come out of the state of ihram, and she has the intention—what does she do? Where does she cut? From which layer? From which degree? The intention is only to cut the tips of the excess hair. Here, she has made it graduated, meaning it is not used from any specific degree. This is blind imitation or the kind of imitation that is not permissible.
