Incubator

Hey there.

I'm about to go get my hair highlighted and a couple of people have told me that it's not a good thing to get done while pregnant. Is this really true? Does anyone know what harm it can do?

Cheers from the fake blonde Incubator!

I've heard that its good to be careful with dying hair but it shouldn't affect the baby too much.

I had mine done before 16 weeks and the hairdressers didnt say anything!! Shes a friend as well!

Just tell the salon!!

What would the peroxide levels mixed with the colour actually do?!? curious!

I've read very different opinions on this subject and most say it's ok, the biggest danger being that it could go a funny colour........I have a blonde highlights and I have an appointment for half a head of highlights this saturday. However I also had a full head of highlights done when I would have been about 4 weeks pregnant (I didn't know) and that was fine! I have noticed the roots have come through much faster, faster hair growth! I will tell my colourist that I am pregnant though so she can keep an eye on the colour and it won't go orange!

i personally never dyed my hair when i was preggers but know alot of people that do and i think that aslong as you tell your hairdresser it should be fine.

Mine didnt go a funny colour either it just grew out quicker... cos my hairs growing a lot quicker being preg
