Color, as hair (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dye

'color as hair' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for dye that I've seen before include "Colour (fabrics)" , "Staining material" , "Colouring; sounds like fade" , "Soluble substance for staining or colouring" , "Tint" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the L.A. Times Daily and the Universal.
