Color Me Pregnant

**Dyeing hair during pregnancy is harmful.**

These days, most mommies-to-be try to avoid getting chemical [hair treatments](/en-au/shop-products/shop-by-product-type/hair-treatment) while they&rsquo;re expecting &ndash; especially haircolor. The idea is that the ingredients in the formulations can harm the unborn baby. But it&rsquo;s a misconception! Many safety studies have been done on the effects and absorption of hair dye, and none suggest that coloring while preggers is dangerous or unsafe. But if you&rsquo;re concerned, definitely have a chat with your doc before booking your next highlights appointment &ndash; or try natural colors, like vegetable dyes and henna.
