There's been a lot of debate about coloring and perming while pregnant. Experts will tell you not to use chemical processes on your hair during the first trimester -- there's no real evidence that it can harm the fetus, but why gamble?
Whether or not you color or perm during the second and third trimesters is a call you and your doctor should make. If you decide to go ahead with a process, be sure to keep the product off your scalp and skin.

its a myth. ther only problem is your hormones are in over drive so your either becomes more porous and takes far too easily (hence why i now have black hair instead of mid brown!!) or it doesnt take very well at all and washed out almost staright away. does NOTHING to harm the baby.

I have 5 children and have dyed my hair with each pregnancy. Its bad enough we ugly do we have to look ugly too? All my kids are fine bit the only thing I did noticed was that the color wouldn't stay in my hair very long when I was pregnant.

My doctor, and my hair stylist borh said it is perfectly harmless to color or bleach hair when pregnant. How else have hairdressers themselves healthy babies when they work with these chemichals all day everyday? And how in the h*ll can something you put on your head hurt the baby? Urban legend.

I don't believe this at all. I am the mother of four. I am also a Cosmetology Instructor. I have not only colored my own hair when pregnant, I have been taught Haircolor for 15 years and have NEVER seen anything like this. I think this is a myth that needs to be busted!

I've talked with my doctor and my hair styliest and both of them said it is perfectly safe to dye your hair AFTER the first trimester, just dont BLEACH it. And dont leave the color in longer than 30minutes, make sure your in a vented room also and be sure to wash your scalp extremely good when washing out the dye
