Re: Rule of thumb with coloring hair during pregnancy
I believe that you can still get highlights because the color doesn't touch the scalp. I've been getting a semi-permanent color that washes out a bit and is still safe. I can't keep up with the price and maintance of highlights anymore. Plus, brown is 'IN" now!!
Edited to add: I found out I was pregnant in September, I got my last highlights in November.

Hi-lights are OK because they don't touch the scalp. I got them throughout my first trimester.

I colored my hair when I was 15 weeks, I did it on my own, I didn't want to go to the salon and breathe all the chemicals there!

I was told it was ok and personally, I'd wait till you get into the 2nd trimester.

My midwife advised me not to so I haven't. I would rather be safe than sorry when it comes to my baby. Besides I'll get to have a nice makeover after her birth.
