I am presently in my third pregnancy, and
I have had my hair colored every time
including highlights just a few days ago.
I have always been ok as well as my
children. I say go for it. Good luck
with the new hair color.

From a hairdressers point of veiw, there
is nothing wrong with coloring your hair.
I work around hair color day in and day
out. Doctor said that its fine for me to
continue. The only thing you may want to
take into consideration is that your
hormones effect alot of things and your
color may not come out the same each time
becuse of that. If your nervous about
coloring, just do some foils or a cap
method. The color doesnt lye directly on
your skin, eliminating all risk. Have
fun, it will make you feel better too!!

I have been highlighting my hair for about
7 years now, and I am 11 weeks pregnant.
I tried highlighting my hair the other
day like I always do, and it turned bright
orange. Then I went to get it fixed by
dying it dark brown and it is now red and
orange. So just be careful

Play It Safe, Wait, If You Can Hold Off

There is not enough medical research on
the effects on hair coloring on your baby,
and some people say there is no problem at
all with the current chemicals used in
colorants, but most websites say to wait
until after the first trimester. This is
only 9 months out of your life - why take
a chance that any kind of chemical could
be absorbed through your scalp? (ever
feel the tingly sensation on your scalp
when you get your hair colored??) if you
can't wait that long to color your hair,
some sites suggest just getting highlights
- which don't touch your scalp. And if
you just can't wait to color your hair
even after all the warnings... Go ahead
and take the chance. Nobody really knows
for sure. And that could be good or bad.
Just like not everybody gets cancer when
they smoke, but we all know that smoking
is not good for you.

I have also heard to wait until the second
trimester. It's a personal decision. I
had a perm before I knew I was pregnant.
Everything was fine, but the chemicals
burned my scalp and forehead so bad. It
was okay after it was washed out, but it
never felt like that before. I should
have known something was up. :p

I dyed my hair and it also turned out
orange. Coloring your hair while pregnant
is very harmful to your emotional health
seeing as how you'll probably cry when you
see your hair bright orange like I did.
It's a little embarassing...
