Hair dye in first trimester?

4 replies

RadgeWeeMidden · 19/12/2013 21:02

I have an appointment to get my hair dyed tomorrow, but wondering if I should cancel it. I'm 5-6 weeks pg.
I've done some research online but the advice is conflicting. I can't establish if there is a proven risk, a possible risk, or no risk at all.
Has anyone had any sound advice on this?

www.nhs.uk/chq/Pages/949.aspx?CategoryID=54 - nhs is a bit ambiguous about the first trimester and says some women choose not to but doesnt actually say that it is dangerous to go ahead.

my hairdresser wouldnt touch my hair in 1st trimester altho i did have my hair dyed without knowing i was pg near the start. think it depends on the hairdresser. id recommend just gettin foils done. also dye can take to your hair differently now ur pregnant.
