Hair coloring - I know this has been discussed...

Hair coloring - I know this has been discussed...

But I need some opinions on this again. I know that every doctor will tell you something different. Of course my stylist says she colored through both her pregnancies. At about 9 weeks, I did color, but she used foil so the color would not touch my scalp. I'm almost 16 weeks and really need to cover these grays!! The doctor did not tell me not to, he just said that there is no confirmed research on the potential harm and if I were to do it, try to wait until the second tri or do highlights (which I don't do).

What are your thoughts on this?

I would push it off as much as possible so you only have to do it once or twice. I do foils and that's what I am doing. I waited until my second tri and I will probably do them at around 16 and 30 weeks (hopefully right before shower). I am 14 1/2 and desperately need it done!

Thank ladies....I'm sure many women do it without issues, but I guess since they can't confirm it's safe, many doctors don't encourage it.

mikeswife, I will probably do what you're doing, do it twice and space it out.

I think I'm going to push off Highlighting my hair until I have my shower, I'm really in no rush to do it.

I did not color it until I was around 31 weeks. Just my own comfort, I wanted to wait.

With my first pregnancy I waited until the first trimester was over. Then I colored my hair.

i decided not to dye or highlight my hair at all . my doc pretty much said the same thing as yours. then again, I don't have any greys. if I did, I might be more inclined to get highlights
