Colour just might not take as it would prior to pregnancy due to hormones x

I had highlights done throughout both if my pregnancies, my hairdresser wouldn't do a full head as she said the colour wouldn't take as well and it would be super itchy.

I had my hair bleached at 34 weeks. Read a lot about it and talked to my hair dresser and decided it was safe. My hair dresser used a lower concentration bleach than usual just to be extra safe. I think because you are so far along, you are probably fine. From what I read, there is no evidence that it isn’t safe so I was happy to go ahead.
