Don't know if it should be read as まいろ, まあいろ, あさいろ or in some other way.
Couldn't find it in any dictionary.

How do you read 麻色?
It's read like a regular compound word, あさいろ

[Here's a passage](http://www.aozora.gr.jp/cards/000879/files/52_15239.html)
from Aozora Bunko with furigana:

```

    何か妙な[粉]{こな}をふりかけた[麻色]{あさいろ}の[縮]{ちぢ}れ毛の[鬘]{かずら}である。
    
```

answer
* 灰 (はい)

灰色 (はいいろ)

  * 茶 (ちゃ)

茶色 (ちゃいろ)

  * 黄 (き)

黄色 (きいろ)

  * 銀 (ぎん)

銀色 (ぎんいろ)

I'm not 100% sure, but the trend seems to be attaching いろ directly to the
standalone word. Going from this, I would assume that 麻色 is read as あさいろ.

Apologies for not being able to provide a confident answer.
