Someone say yes, some say no. While there is no proof if anything happening as a result, they say use a very well vented room as the fumes are bad. And to wait until AFTER your first trimester.

Is it safe to dye my hair while pregnant?
There are conflicting reports about the safety of hair dye during pregnancy: Several studies found no ill effects on pregnant rodents given 100 times the typical human dose of these products, whereas British researchers reported chromosome damage among women who dyed their hair. Although this study was not conducted on pregnant women, this finding suggests that there may be some risk to coloring your hair while pregnant.
As a precaution, some physicians advise you to avoid hair color until after your first trimester (the period when your baby's vital organs, head, body and limbs form). Colorants made from vegetable dyes such as henna are preferable to the chemical dyes used in permanent and semi-permanent formulas. Recent studies indicate that hair dyes contain relatively high levels of bio-available lead acetate that can be harmful to the fetus, particularly the nervous system and brain. Check the product label and avoid lead based hair products.

I just watched a "Pregnancy for Dummies" Video last night. The doctor said that is is fine to dye your hair at anytime during your pregnancy. The reason it was so taboo back in the day is because dye used to have formaldehyde and arsenic. Now just make sure the room is well ventilated and you are totally safe!

Yes, so what ever you want to your hair while you are pregnant, it will make you feel better, after the baby is born your hair may be more resistant to colours etc.

yea people say its not okay but nothing has been proven. I am 38 weeks and ive dyed my hair many times, the problem is that your horomones go insane and it can be hard to color. meaning if you have brown hair and go for blonde highlights, theres a chance it wont show up.

I heard that you shouldn't - the chemicals can seep into your skin and then into your bloodstream. It's ok to highlight your hair, though, since the color never touches your skin when you get highlights.

yes but sometime your hormones are different so it can make it harder to hold color.
