A hair dye composition is disclosed which contains botanical ingredients in a powdered form. The hair dye containing botanical ingredients does not damage the hair structure because it protects the hair against both strong alkali and oxidative agents commonly used in conventional cream-type hair dyes. The hair dye composition can be stored stably. The hair dye composition is comprised of: botanical ingredients that comprises 5~25wt% of cereal powder, 5~25wt% of starch, 1~5wt% of dextrin, 0.1~2wt% of sage powder, 0.01~0.5wt% of chamomile powder, 0.01~0.5wt% of glycyrrhiza extracted powder, and 0.01~0.5wt% of rosemary powder; 0.4~20wt% of dye; 16~30wt% of moisturizer; 5~20wt% of viscous material; and binding material that comprises 5~20wt% of sodium perborate and 1~10wt% of sodium sulfate anhydrous.
