Grapeseed oil in Cantu hair gel during pregnancy.. is it safe?

[anxiousmumtobeeee]

I read that grapeseed oil supplements should not be taken. I have a Cantu product with grapeseed oil in it..would this be safe? You can eat grapes so I don't see why not, but then I don't understand what the issue with the supplements would be? Anyone know? Anyone used this gel and baby been fine? I read a lot about fruit type oils causing contractions etc and should be avoided, like essential oils.

It's absolutely fine.

There's a big difference between a supplement that you ingest and putting something on your hair and skin. Best to stick to the NHS guidance re what is/ isn't safe rather than Google. Some essential oils are best avoided (like Clary sage for example) but your midwife will be able to advise more on those.

*ie it will be fine, you're not eating it!
