When we have Khoro Bharat (god bharai or baby shower)on 7th month then we can wash hair. I asked someone and they said that because the Godess. It is in most of the Gujarati culture and I think mostly in Brahmin cast.

Your hair desires its organic oils to advance. by employing washing your hair usually happening, you're removing them so your hair won't be able to sustain silkiness or wellness. i am going with to advise washing your hair the different day somewhat of usually happening. in the adventure that your hair gets too greasy each and daily which potential you could desire to take a bathtub usually happening, then I recommend employing a bypass away in conditioner.

Unless it's a cultural reason or a religious reason this is not true. We in the US wash our hair just like normal during the whole pregnancy.

That's pretty gross. I washed my hair every day that I was pregnant for 8 months(my son was early). I've never even heard of that one. I've heard of a lot of them, like no sit down bath's or you'll drown the baby(untrue) and don't lift your arms above your heard or you'll strangle the baby with the cord(again untrue) but never that one.

That must be a local or religious custom, I have never known anyone to leave their hair unwashed for that long. Although human hair can clean itself if left for long enough without washing.

I have never heard of this before. That would suck, I washed my hair everyday while I was pregnant because I noticed that I sweated more (I even wash it everyday not pregnant). Sorry to hear that.
