Hi all,

I know these threads have been asked before, but I wondered if any beauticians or hairdressers who have all the training and knowledge could reassure me please. Google states that there isn’t really a much evidence, it seems to be down the the individual. I’m about 7 weeks pregnant, I last dyed my hair about 9/10 ago. I have jet black hair and I’m extremely grey so usually dye it every 4/5 weeks, I wanted to hold out until 12 weeks but it’s very noticeable at the moment, I wondered if using a natural hair dye just to top up the roots would be safe to use? I also wanted to tint my eyebrows, I just use an at home box eyebrow tint from Superdrug usually.

Thank you in advance x

Not a hair dresser but with 2 pregnancies I’ve not had any issues with having my hair done. I’m assuming you did it 9/10 weeks ago so I’d say you’re okay to go get it done now .

Just make sure you do a patch test.
I did have an occasion years ago where the colour didn't take as it normally does on a pregnant woman but it was easily corrected and it is very rare.
