I carried on as such and felt like a total knockout the whole time, and I was relaxed and stress free. Totally worth it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419458 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 14:08:03 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 419458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!!!</p> <p>I got my hair colored regularly throughout my entire pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419386 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:55:46 +0000 .twist. 419386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Katm558: thank you!! That is really comforting to hear. </p> <p>I really appreciate all the congrats too. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419379 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:54:48 +0000 Katm558 419379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!!</p> <p>I realized, while sitting in the hairstylists chair while my hair was being colored red, that I might've been pregnant with DS2. Obviously I was in the middle of my color, do I couldn't stop what was being done. After that appointment I rushed home to take a test and, lo and behold, I was right!</p> <p>DS2 is a happy, healthy little 13 month old, so as long as your in a well ventilated area, you are probably just fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419378 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:54:38 +0000 Modern Daisy 419378@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419322 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:41:22 +0000 sweetooth 419322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oooh, congratulations! I don't have an experience with the coloring stuff, but I think pampering yourself right now sounds good :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419315 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:40:00 +0000 oliviaoblivia 419315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Go get your hair done and enjoy your pregnancy! Congrats mama! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419306 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:38:32 +0000 .twist. 419306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sarac: Thanks :) This is kind of the conclusion I've made. I'm going to go to my appointment and make sure I feel pretty throughout this whole pregnancy thing!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419277 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:29:26 +0000 sarac 419277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The not getting your hair colored is just the latest example of modern hysteria-pregnancy. There is not and has never been a link to harm to a fetus from it. Someone just decided that it 'wasn't a good idea' and now pregnant women avoid it 'just to be safe'. Totally unwarranted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419254 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:19:41 +0000 mediagirl 419254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations!!!! Er....I have nothing else, though because I decided not to do anything to my hair while I was pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419246 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:17:04 +0000 Running Elley 419246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations!!!! I got my hair highlighted when I was 5 weeks pregnant but I was only comfortable with it because I knew my salon is always well ventilated. Happy and healthy 9 months :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419180 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 12:47:40 +0000 autumnlove 419180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! My Dr said he was ok with it in the 2nd and third trimester! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419117 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 12:16:55 +0000 sea_bass 419117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: Congratulations!<br /> I followed the advice not to dye your hair in the first trimester, and then I am sticking to vegetable dyes after that.. </p> <p>It might be overly cautious, but hair dyes are full of chemicals and the skin is the largest organ of the body. I just don't feel comfortable doing it in the first tri.. </p> <p>Do what you feel comfortable with. Like every risk in pregnancy there isn't a black and white, just shades of grey you have to make countless judgemental calls on (sadly!). </p> <p>Best of luck with your pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419062 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 11:46:14 +0000 Andrea 419062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just wanted to say congrats, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-419019 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 11:30:04 +0000 .twist. 419019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha thanks ladies.

A million congrats!!!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-418989 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 11:19:29 +0000 .twist. 418989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bpaig: I'm not sure highlights would work. They might, but I'd have to ask. My hair is actually fully black but we color my roots bright red. which sounds weird... but it looks pretty awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-418971 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 11:16:08 +0000 shinystraps 418971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: If you're doing all-over red, one thing to think about is that you'll have to go back for maintenance throughout your pregnancy. Maybe go with red highlights instead or something, if the all-over color makes you nervous? I told my hair stylist but you're right, her being family does make it kinda tricky for you :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-418966 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 11:15:04 +0000 blackbird 418966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depending on what you have your hair colored with, I ended up with semi-permanent dye! The smell didn't bother me, either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-418965 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 11:14:55 +0000 .twist. 418965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T-Mom: Thanks!! </p> <p>@PrincessBaby: Thanks! :) I think I'll call them and ask and then depending on what they say I'll make my decision! Because I can't go much longer without getting my hair did!! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-418960 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 11:13:31 +0000 PrincessBaby 418960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: Oh that IS a tough call! I didn't even tell you Congratulations...So Congrats on your BFP! And good luck with your hair decision:). FWIW, I just scaled my hair appts back... I went from getting highlights every 6 or 7 wks, to waiting longer stretches.... Like 10 or 11 weeks, but I still kept getting my hair did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bfp-amp-hair-appointment-today#post-418945 Wed, 28 Nov 2012 11:09:00 +0000 T-Mom 418945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!
