There are plenty of authentic Hadeeths from the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt (AS) stating that Muslim woman must cover her entire hair as part and parcel of the obligatory Hijab. You can refer to all our Hadeeth and jurisprudence books to read these Hadeeths. The Hadeeth of Mi'raaj is an authentic very well known Hadeeth, in which the Prophet (SAWA) told Lady Fatima (AS) that he was been shown the punishment of types of sinners including a woman hanged in the hellfire because she was not covering her hair in front of outsider men.Biharul Anwar, V. 8, P.309. More narrations on this subject can be found in Mustanad Al Shia by Al-Naraqi volume 4 page 247.
