Rachel1991 Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 Thanks for the replies, made me feel a bit more at ease about dying my hair now, as it looks terrible and needs doing desperately! Well my hair is currently a lightish brown colour, but i've been wanting to go back blonde for a while now (before i was pregnant). Is it something i should tell my hairdresser when I go get it done then, or is it irrelevant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corbyn Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I also dyed mine during both my pregnancies. I didn't do it as much though. I waited until I couldn't stand the roots and then did it rather than just doing it every 5 or 6 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feargal Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I was told to avoid any henna-based dyes, but your usual box of Nice & Easy or salon colour will be fine. Watch out for going lighter too - my hair is growing like billy-o, and if I'd bleached mine the cost of getting my roots done would have bankrupted me by now! It's also much drier than previously, so too harsh a treatment could do more damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leah-Lacie Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 If your hair is thicker and growing faster, watch after the baby is born, you'll start losing it in clumps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spottie2101 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Have died mine all the way through, in fact i did alsorts to it before i even knew i was pregnant So would think you would be fine, know what u mean about hair growing like mad, mine is and its thick enough it doesnt need any help. Yet still lose loads everywhere. If it falls out after the birth bring it on i say, save me a fortune at the hairdressers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leah-Lacie Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Honestly, after my first, I didn't notice a thing, I bleached it blonde a lot, and it didn't get any thicker or longer than usual, but, with my 2nd, my god, it grew fast. It went from shoulder to bum length in the 9 months, and I kept darkening it. Then after she was born, it was literally coming out in handfuls, it was quite scary! It was so bad at the front with little bits like a baby fringe growing back where it had fallen out, I had to go and have a fringe cut in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluecanary Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 If you're concerned about using chemicals on your scalp you could try highlighting with foils instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
