Is it safe to dye your hair if you're breastfeeding?

[MummyTL]

Just a bit worried about chemicals getting into the milk. I'm starting to look a bit haggard, so I could do with pampering myself.

Yes it is fine

You know I never even thought about this, I died my hair as usual, when I was pregnant and bf! is it wrong??

perfectly safe

What about pregnant?

I did dye my hair when I was pregnant, but not as often as before. I was told it was safe, but wasn't too sure.

I asked this recently and sparked off a spat about hairdressers and cancer

im a hairdresser and we ahve never been advised otherwise if you are still not sure use something thats says tempoary as they do not soak in or you use cuticle opening chemicals like ammonia or peroxide they are a bit like these colour boosting shampoos

and btw fwiw if your having highlights the colour shouldnt touch your scalp any way unless you are having a block colour technique
