  • I bleached my hair the color fades I encourage you to wait
  • I did.... but after a certain point and I had someone do it as well
  • Some people say yes and others no but I asked my doctor and she gave me the approval so I went to the salon ASAP :) she said as long as you can stand the smell its no problem at all if not wear a mask
  • My dr office said it was ok to do. It wont harm the baby
  • I color my hair every month it seems like highlights as well n I'm 33 weeks prego. Also colored my hair with my son he's almost 2 n healthy
  • I just want to feel good again! :)
    It won't harm the baby will it??
  • As long as there arn't crazy strong fumes you will be fine. Just don't want to breath a lot of crazy toxic fumes. But mose places are pretty well ventelated. The real thing they warn about in the chemicals in you body change so much, you hair reacts differntly to the color. So it may be stronger, lighter, last forever, wash out... Just don't know. High lights prob arnt going to be a big deal, so I would say go for it. Get a mani-pedi while your at it! We deserve a lil pampering!! lol
  • Lol thank you!! My husband and I argued about it! He wasn't comfortable at first, but now he says go for it. And yes, we do deserve it!!
  • Wait till ur second trimester and get roots not scalp....I want a relaxer so bad but I'm waiting
  • I'm 2 months and I just got a cute hair cut and can't wait to color it up a little. I'm gonna be bleaching the undersides of my hair and then dyeing it blue. I think its gonna look nice with my natural red. I've heard that highlights are fine. One lady said she used to be a hair model while she was pregnant and her son is a genius. I say go for it ;)
  • I just talked to my doc yesterday about it and He said its ok as long as I'm out of my first trimester! Lol needless to say on making me an apt.
  • I got a guy coming to my house I'm 24 weeks, I think I'm gonna do it. :)
