It IS completely fine to get your hair colored while pregnant. I'm 38 weeks pregnant and I've been getting my hair done PRETTY regularly since I found out I was pregnant...
What doctors are concerned about is you BREATHING in the fumes, not the dye "getting into te womb." as someone mentioned. That's absurd.
Although from your hormones, your hair may not turn out the color you'd like it to be. ;) My salon uses Aveda products though, which is all natural...
Goodluck, and if you're concerned, you could wear a mask while you're in the salon... or if you're doing it yourself.

Yeah my sister did heaps when she was pregnant. I have heard its not good but i could never figure out why. I dont think the chemicals are going to go into your blood stream or anything. Im sure its safe for Bub but if your worried just clal your gp.

dying your hair is fine but let a qualified hairdresser do it at a salon. Don't buy cheap and nasty home dye jobs.
Its an old wives tale that you can't dye your hair.

What docotrs and books worry about is breathing in the chemicals - as long s you are in a airy area - you will be fine!
I waited until I was 12 weeks and have been doing it monthy since.

its unsafe to dye your hair during pregnancy because the chemicals used in the dye could potentially harm the baby, your hair stylist would also discourage against dying. they would be willing to put in highlights because the chemicals do not touch your skin.

Personally I wouldn't want my baby being exposed to the chemicals but I'm sure that lots of people do it.
Do what you like!
All the best!

the docs say not to b/c there is no research saying that the chemicals do or don't get absorbed into the womb.
Personally I have never done it.......and I'm not sure I know anyone that has.
