Anyone highlight or color your hair?

Was thinking about having my highlights done again. Just wondering if you have had it done or not.

 

Yep, and I was actually about 12 weeks when I had my hair highlighted. I asked my dr. about it and she said that it would be fine...especially by 12 weeks.

 

I did mine throughout both of my pregnancies.

 

I am a highlighting queen. I did it every 6 weeks throughout my pregnancy!

 

I didn't dye my hair at all during pregnancy. I found it easier to let it be until I was feeling better and done being pregnant. I know lots of people that have and they haven't had any problems.

 

I dyed mine twice during this pregnancy. My OB actually noticed and called me blondie all the time

 

I got the ok from my OB, so I do highlights/lowlights every 8 weeks. And I give myself a manicure each week - sure helps from feeling so "squishy-looking."

 

I didnt do anything coloring when I was pregnant with my twins, it was just to umcomfortable to sit in the chair or lean in a sink. I color my hair faithfully now, I will probably still go, but wait until after my 1 st trimester and not do as much. Only incase it doesnt take as well because of the hormones, they can affect the way the color takes.

 

I had mine partially (not full, just the top half, I guess) highlighted during my pregnancy with the twins. I think it was done twice, but only after the 1st trimester. My OB said it was fine and honestly it really boosted my self-esteem to have it done during pregnancy. I just felt so frumpy!

 

I'm planning on doing it as soon as I'm out of my first trimester. I can't wait because I need it badly!

 

I color mine and sometimes highlight it all of the time myself....it's ok as long as the fumes aren't too strong.

 

I'm so glad you posted this and I see many ladies do highlight and color. I've been thinking about it and was too scared. I won't even paint my nails I'm so scared. I feel braver already!!

 

my old ob told me that it would be fine to so and that now the chemicals arent even strong enough to hurt anything - the only precaution is b/c of the smell and it making women in their first trimester sick. I dont know how true that is but i did mine with the boys.
