Yes, most doctors nowadays say it's okay to dye your hair anytime during pregnancy, some say after the first trimester. Either way you're good.

the color is safe but i would be wary of using bleach, the strong chemical odor and the amount that goes into your bloodstream through your scalp can be harmful to the baby, most haircolors are safe to use now that you are past 3 months but remember sometimes pregnancy hormones can affect the way a haircolor comes out, sometimes it wont take and sometimes it will be a different color than it normally would have , have a professional do it just to be safe.
Congratulations

Yes once you get past the first trimester it is safe to color and perm hair. Let a professional do it because hair becomes very pourous(sp) and may not come out right with home treatment

Its safe to do as long as you are in a well ventilated area, the only thing is with all the hormones running through your system, your hair might not turn out the way you had hoped!

I always wait until after the first 3 months just to be on the safe side. If you do it yourself, just make sure that you have plenty of ventilation...leave the door open and I always bring a fan in with me and point it out the door to suck the odor away from me...Dye away!!!

It is safe. Only a minimal amount of chemicals is absorbed through the scalp and studies have shown that it is not enough to cause harm to the unborn baby.

Yes it is safe. I am a hair dresser and when I was pregnant I colored my hair. Alot of women come in my salon to have their hair colored. It is safe!!!

its safe to colour your hair! but on the the hand the colour wont take..it will either fade really fast or it will turn your hair a different colour then what you expected! i also reccomend highlights b/c bleach doesnt sit on your scalp and get into your blood stream like colour can

My doctor told me not to and I was afraid to go ahead, so I had them pull my hair old style through the cap and then the color did not touch my scalp and they can pull a lot or a little, I had a lot and it looked pretty good.
