Nails & Hair While Preg. Can Ya Do It?? Posted: 02-02-06 15:33pm
I've got just a quick question for
everyone... Im almost 11 weeks pregnant,
and one to keep my nails done and my hair
highlighted. I spoke w/my dr about the
risks of having my hair nails done and
they said I needed to wait till after the
first trimester was over and if I did do
it, to do it in well ventlated areas. I
know the fumes are harmfull with having
your figernails done, but with hair are
you more at risk because its your hair and
its going into your body?? Im just
curious and wonder what everyone else done
while they are/were pregnant. Its not a
big deal for me to let it go, im just
curious.
Thanks e'body~*

Yep its fine as soon as do it
professionally i.E. Hairdressers
coz the hair dyes that are for home
applications are a lot stronger. At least
with professional help they could just
apply the appropriate amount that you
need.
As per nails I prefer doing it indoors
(not that I can reach it anymore) lol coz
its safer and hygienic using ur own nail
stuff.
As they say just dont over do
good luck!

I wouldn't go into a nail salon while
pregnant. Those fumes are absolutely
awful. If I were you, i'd avoid it. I
do my own nails but the fumes are nothing
like salons.

Well I asked my doctor while I was
pregnant about the two ..She told me no to
getting my nails done..The odor is to
strong and bad for the development of the
babys lungs..And as for hair she said its
alright after 3 months ..But in a well
venalated area..But some doctors are
different but I just went by what mine
said :wink:
