The chemical issue wouldn't bother me but not being able to get it done again for 8/9 months (if I got a BFP) would!

If you think you can hold out to get it done a 2nd time until after you have the baby, then I would go for it.

During my 2ww I lived my life as I always would have and did not mind "F" everything I did. I agree with the other poster that if you do get it done, be prepared to not be able to do it again for 9 months if you get a BFP

Good luck Chat Icon

I agree with others. I'd be okay with getting it done during 2ww, but the grow out process might be annoying.
Would you consider Keratin (formaldehyde-free)? It doesn't straighten, but rather smoothes hair. So you'll still have your curls, but getting it straight is a whole lot easier. And it washes out after 3-5 months--doesn't grow out like other straightening treatments, so you won't have that curly growth at the roots.

Just a thought. Sorry if this sounds like a pitch, I work in the beauty industry. Chat Icon

It won't make your hair pin straight like Japanese straightening. It makes your hair smoother and softer, so it's much easier to get straight--you won't need to blow dry and flat iron (from what I hear from friends--I have straight hair. In fact, could use some curl! Chat Icon). It'll basically make it much more manageable and frizz-free.
The biggest thing is making sure the version the salon offers is formaldehyde-free.
