.hair..

I know I'll get judged but I'm the one that's always saying wives tales are myths because they are fake and blah blah blah but I told my mom I want to cut my hair but she told me no because I'm pregnant and cutting it will make it damaged and stuff because right now it's all healthy and everything. I don't believe these things but when it comes to my mom I tend to believe her because she's my mom I love her..

That doesn't make sense. Ive seen people get their hair cut while pregnant and even colored. But I also heard that if I wanna color my hair I should wait until the first trimester is over. And I thought about maybe getting my hair cut sometime soon but I don't know since Im pregnant. I don't know why people believe that fake stuff

I think ur not suppose to dye ur hair in the early trimesters because the chemicals might prevent the fetus from growing normally.  As far as cutting it I don't know how this would affect ur baby. I cut mine!

A hair dresser cut my hair short either my permission and I got so upset about it. Not only that but my hair has gotten very brittle and even started falling out due to hormomes. It's made me feel so ugly. My advice is don't cut your hair too short if you aren't used to it

As a hairdresser I can honestly say that I have never ever heard that if you cut your hair it won't grow right. Your hair will continue to grow from your scalp the same way that it grows from your scalp now. Cutting from the ends can't change how it grows from the top...it's honestly impossible.
