When TTC is it ok to dye your hair/ rebond

[atomic sagebrush]

Personally, I would worry even about "natural" things. People have had bad reactions to henna and even ODed on it (now that was from eating it, but who knows how much could be absorbed thru the scalp - even if not enough to harm you, could it harm a baby? No one seems to know)

Everyone assumes natural = safe but that is very far from true. Botulism is natural. Strichnine is natural. Lots of things that are natural are very harmful to babies and oftentimes natural beauty products and remedies are way, way less tested than man-made things are so just proceed with caution!

True say Atomic didnt think of that 👍🏼
Id go with your own instinct, i left dying my hair for as long as possible, maybe ive seen mum react to a Henna she tried which made me concerned about it. I aboided dying me hair for as long as possible, and now prob wont do it again until baby is born. Go with what u feel is right - best of luck with pregnancy

Yeah don't get me wrong, I dyed my hair when pregnant (less often) I just hate to see people assume "oh this chemical is dangerous, I'll d something natural" when the natural thing may be worse than the chemical.
