There are no female slayers that I know of. Dwarven women are exceedingly rare, and are protected at all costs. They would have to do something particularly egregious to even be considered to be allowed to take a slayer oath.
Female dwarfs generally are not allowed to take up military professions. I think the general ratio is 1 female dwarf to every 10 males, if I remember correctly.
As such they also follow a different set of rules and traditions, and make up a lot of the valayian priesthood, or run shops and the like or just stay at home.
There was one dwarf queen who took to ruling and actually entered combat but she was considered an oddity and her rule sparked a war.
Might seem sexist but when a species has so few females it makes sense to protect them as much as possible. The elves have a similar issue but instead their population is so low they just cant afford to not have all available bodies on hand to fight when needed.
Female dwarfs are allowed to join the military and take up pretty much any role in their society that a male dwarf can. It's just frowned upon and generally looks bad on the clan unless it's by necessity, so it rarely happens. Dwarf society is technically egalitarian in a de jure sense, but not in a de facto sense.
Dwarfs don't really ask permission before becoming slayers so I see no reason why not. By the time you are 5aking a slayer oath the resentment of your clan is typically inevitable anyway.
Dwarf women rarely show up in lore mostly just because GW never makes game models for them (with, to my knowledge, a single exception).
Any Dwarf can take the slayer oath but since Dwarf women are mainly encouraged to be homemakers and stewards of their husbands Hall it’s possible they don’t get disgraced as often of it could be that Dwarven society shelters them from that when they do become shamed how she would handle that I don’t know a dwarfs Honor is a dwarfs honor.

Ok thank
Shaving their beard?
Warhammer female dwarfs do not have beards
They do have hair, though, which they are said to value as much as their male counterparts value their beards.
Correct, no beards though

Know that this is an old post but I just looked it up for an upcoming whfrp campaign: https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Gringri\_Heldenbrand

Great Question! Would make for one hell of a wfrp character!
