I mean I'm only the receptionist but dang. I felt bad for my coworker & I'm probably gonna catch flack when I go in to work on Thursday.
I'm a hair dresser too and highlights are fine after 1st trimester. I got my hair highlighted. :)
It is just one of those things that some people freak about and there are so many things that some think shouldn't be done. I have done all over color several times throughout my pregnancies, my kids are healthy and only my male doctor didnt like the idea...but he didn't like me eating bread either...
I was told highlights that don't touch the scalp after the 1st trimester is completely safe. I haven't done it personally but wouldn't freak out over it. She's being overprotective.
She needs to take a chill pill.... You are fine!! You can all over color as long as you aren't smelling it
