Eyebrow Tint/HD Brows, Safe when breastfeeding?- New Mumma SOS

5 replies

Hello all! Hoping you might be able to help 🤞😊

I'm due to have my first baby (10 days over now!) and have really lost my sense of self already. I'm feeling generally a bit rubbish about myself at the moment.

Hoping to get some easy treatments when she's here to bring my sparkle back- starting with my eyebrows. I'm not sure what treatments you are allowed if I am able to breastfeed - looking at HD brows and/or tinting, tidying/lamination treatments.

Anyone know what is safe if breastfeeding?

Thanks all! - C 💛

Oh god yes, I bf for 3 years in total and had my brows done throughout, enjoy!

And good luck, my second was extremely late so I have an idea how you're feeling right now!

I had everything done before I went into labour!
I mentioned it on mn and was totally ripped apart buy I had my hair highlighted eye lashes tinted and permed, threading done legs waxed fake tan, the lot!!
I did it both times a couple if days before the due date.

No issues at all.

Thank you both! 😊 🙌 just need something low maintenance which will make me feel just a tad more human again!

The sickness for the entire 9 months has been horrific, so I think I deserve some nice eyebrows 😂

Oh you poor thing, I was very sick throughout with both of mine too. I hope you aren't waiting too much longer, you'll feel so much better once baby is here!

I was pretty OTT during my ivf pregnancy, zero caffeine, bought special low chemical nail varnish etc - but brows were fine! Think back in the day there was some concerns about hairdyes but it's all fine now if I remember right.
Good luck with the birth!
