Hair Dye

Sorry if this is a repeat of a previous thread -

Popped into my office a couple of days ago and a colleague said to me "cant you dye your hair when you are pregnant?" - it wasnt a very subtle way to tell me that I had bad regrowth and my greys were showing!

Silly I know but it really upset me! So - can anyone tell me what the story is with using hair bye whilst pregnant? I spoke to my m/w who basically said - "its up to you, but I prob wouldnt use harsh chemicals". The only thing I can think of is going and getting a Henna colour from the Body Shop, but I can never put thos on myself without getting it all over me!!

 

Have just seen the other thread ..... I knew it was there somewhere!!!

when i was hairdressing we coloured pregnant womens hair all the time, also i have friends who continued hairdressing right through their pregnancy.
It is a personal thing though.
your skin may become very sensitive during pregnancy and you could get reactions, I know this time round my skin is shocking so I wouldnt attemtp it at all.
A semi would be best as it has little to no amonia in it, but there is nothing wrong with having a permanent colour, foils/ streaking cap

I have decided that I am going to use Henna. I used to use it way back in my student days and was nice and gentle on my hair. Its stinks (my mum thinks it smells like cow poo!) but not in a nasty chemical way!
