Abstract

The invention relates to a dyeing composition for keratinous fibers and in particular for human keratinous fibers such as hair, comprising, in a suitable medium for dyeing, at least one oxidation dye precursor chosen from 3-methyl-para-aminophenol, 2-methyl-para-aminophenol and 2-hydroxymethyl-para-aminophenol, and their addition salts with an acid; at least one coupling agent chosen from the 2-methyl-5-aminophenols of formula (I): ##STR1## in which R denotes hydrogen, methyl or ethyl or a .beta.-hydroxyethyl or .gamma.-hydroxypropyl group, and their addition salts with an acid; and as oxidation dye precursor, a para-aminophenol which is 2-substituted by a substituent which is different from methyl or hydroxymethyl, or one of its addition salts with an acid.
