Can I dye my hair while preparing for pregnancy?

A healthy baby is what every pregnant woman hopes to have. The period of preparing for pregnancy is also a very critical period, so no matter what you do, you must consider whether it is allowed during this period. For example, many women like to dye their hair, but during the period of preparing for pregnancy, dyeing their hair will have a certain impact on them. So can I dye my hair when I’m pregnant?

(1) In order to have a healthy baby, it is best not to perm your hair, as it will have an impact on the fetus. It is best not to come into contact with chemical substances during the pregnancy preparation period, and also during the first three months of pregnancy, as this will cause fetal malformations. If you have had your hair permed before, you may consider washing and caring for your hair every day. This can reduce the smell and ingredients of chemicals caused by the perm.

(2) You should not dye your hair while preparing for pregnancy. This is because some harmful chemicals and heavy metals in hair dye can be absorbed into the human body through the scalp, thus having adverse effects on human health. Some people cannot feel it temporarily, but poisoning may cause fetal malformation or mental retardation.

(3) Do not dye or perm your hair during the first three months of pregnancy. If you must dye your hair, it is best to wait until three months into the pregnancy, because before three months of pregnancy the fetus is in the organ development stage and is most likely to develop deformities. Reduce the frequency of hair dyeing. Try to reduce the frequency of hair dyeing to avoid the effects of accumulated drugs. Dye the ends of your hair but not the roots. When dyeing or perming your hair, you can only treat the middle and ends of your hair to reduce the absorption of scalp medications or allergies.

Since you have decided to have a baby, don't dye or perm your hair to avoid affecting your body and pregnancy. Here are some common sense about pregnancy preparation, I hope it will be helpful to you;
