The driving test regulations do not explicitly prohibit dyeing or perming hair. However, there will be photography during the subject four test. To avoid recognition issues, it is advisable not to dye your hair in drastically different colors for safety reasons. The requirements for taking driver's license photos are as follows: Time: Photos must be taken within 6 months before the applicant applies for driver's license services. Appearance: The photo must be a straight-edged, front-facing, bareheaded, color, single-person, half-length ID photo without hats, scarves, uniforms, or colored glasses. Those with long hair should expose both ears, and the head and face should not have any tilting, turning, heavy makeup, or accessories that affect facial feature recognition. Background: The background color should be white, with clear, well-defined, and natural-looking portraits without obvious distortion. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": Physical requirements for applying for a driver's license: For large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, large trucks, and trolleybuses, the height must be at least 155 cm. For medium-sized passenger vehicles, the height must be at least 150 cm. For large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, large trucks, trolleybuses, or trams, the naked or corrected vision of both eyes must reach at least 5.0 on the logarithmic visual acuity chart. For other vehicle types, the naked or corrected vision of both eyes must reach at least 4.9 on the logarithmic visual acuity chart. No red-green color blindness, the ability to distinguish the direction of sound sources with each ear 50 cm from a tuning fork, both thumbs intact, at least three fingers intact on each hand, normal limb and finger movement functions, and normal motor functions. For applying to drive manual transmission cars, the length difference between the lower limbs should not exceed 5 cm. For applying to drive automatic transmission cars, the right lower limb should be intact with no motor dysfunction. For first-time applicants of a motor vehicle driver's license, the eligible vehicle types include city buses, large trucks, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed trucks, three-wheeled cars, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, and trams. According to the appendix of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": The classification standards for driver's licenses include A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, D, E, F, M, N, P, totaling 16 categories. The Ministry of Public Security's "Regulations" further divide driver's licenses into 15 categories, with new licenses issued during annual inspections or reviews. C1 license: Many people think that a C1 license only allows driving small vehicles with up to 7 seats. However, C1 license holders can drive vehicles with up to 9 seats and a body length not exceeding 6 meters, such as Jinbei and Ruifeng models, as long as the seat count does not exceed 9 and the body length is within 6 meters. Other eligible vehicle types for C1 licenses include C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), and C4 (three-wheeled cars). C2 license: The C2 license is also one of the more common licenses. It allows driving automatic transmission cars with up to 9 seats and a body length not exceeding 6 meters. Note that C2 license holders cannot drive manual transmission vehicles. B1 license: The eligible vehicle type for a B1 license is a medium-sized passenger vehicle, defined as a vehicle with a length of less than 6 meters and a rated passenger capacity of 10 (inclusive) to 19 (inclusive) people. Other eligible vehicle types include C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery). Note that B1 licenses do not include B2 vehicle types. B2 license: B2 license holders can drive heavy and medium-sized trucks or large, heavy, and medium-sized specialized operation vehicles. Heavy and medium-sized trucks are mostly trucks, such as the large dump trucks commonly seen on roads. Other eligible vehicle types for B2 licenses include C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery), which is the same as B1 licenses. A1 license: The eligible vehicle type for an A1 license is a large bus with more than 20 passengers. Additionally, vehicles with a body length exceeding 6 meters also require an A1 license. Other eligible vehicle types for A1 licenses include A3 (city buses), B1 (medium-sized passenger vehicles), B2 (large trucks), C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery). A2 license: The eligible vehicle type for an A2 license is a tractor, which can only be driven by A2 license holders. Even A1 license holders cannot drive tractors. Other eligible vehicle types for A2 licenses include B1 (medium-sized passenger vehicles), B2 (large trucks), C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery). A3 license: The A3 license is somewhat special. Its eligible vehicle type is the commonly used city bus. Other eligible vehicle types include only C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), and C4 (three-wheeled cars). This license does not allow driving B1 or B2 vehicle types. Although city buses and large passenger vehicles look similar, and some city buses are even longer, A3 license holders cannot drive large passenger vehicles.

Getting a driver's license has nothing to do with hair dye. Back when I was learning to drive, I had blonde hair. The DMV mainly checks if your ID matches your appearance, as long as your facial features are clear and haven’t changed much. However, on the exam day, avoid extreme colors like purple or green that might catch the examiner’s attention and affect your focus. The most important thing is not to wear strong perfume during the road test (Subject 3)—some examiners might get distracted by the smell. After dyeing your hair, remember to update your license photo, since it’s a document you’ll use for ten years. Natural shades like dark brown are the safest choice.
