I agree with everyone except the first lady. My SIL and most of the females in her family are cosmetologists and my dr knows I dye my hair and they all say its perfectly safe. I wanna say my SIL actually said nothing in the first trimester, full color/bleach in the 2nd trimester and foils in the 3rd but I could be wrong on that. Regardless, a well ventilated area is key.

I just used ammonia free hair dye. Works just as well but it's not as toxic.

Even a permanent is fine in a well ventilated area.

Totally fine, but do it in a salon. Let them know you're pregnant, because the hormones can mess with the color

My doctor said it's fine, just not to get a perm.

My Doctor said it is fine as long as you are in a ventilated room. You just shouldn't in the first trimester which you are already past.
