These are the questions that many future mothers ask, because before pregnancy our hair lives a completely different life, in search of individuality and the desire to change and surprise others, we constantly experiment with the color, length and texture of the hair. Why does the question arise about what can and can not be done? Of course, this is due to the signs and superstitions that the expectant mothers frighten, and even if they do not have any scientific facts, many still just "just in case" are reinsured and stop cutting and tinting their hair. But how to be the one for whom it is important in any state to look well-groomed and attractive?
The changes that occur in the body of a pregnant woman have a positive effect on the condition of the hair. Hair becomes more shiny, thick and thick and the condition of even fragile and lifeless hair improves. Hormonal changes also affect the growth rate of hair, the number of hair loss is reduced by several times.
Let's try to understand the main myth, the topic of which does not stop to argue - is it harmful to dye hair during pregnancy and whether hair coloring can damage the health of the future baby and whether there is a "safe" hair coloring. Experts have not yet come to this question to a single opinion. Many do not advise women to dye their hair during pregnancy, justifying it by the fact that the chemicals contained in the paint, getting on the scalp, capable of penetrating into the circulatory system, and subsequently to the fetus. Others believe that women who color their hair along the entire length expose them more to risk than those who are limited to meliorating or coloring, staining only the stem part of the hair, without touching the paint with the skin.
However, there are no scientifically confirmed facts about the dyeing of hair during pregnancy. If the paint gets through the scalp into the blood, then in such microscopic doses that it is not capable of harming either the health of the child or the most pregnant one. Therefore, it is up to you to decide whether the hair coloring of pregnancy is harmful and the health of the child. But this does not mean that it's worth leaving your hair in a careless and neglected state. It is recommended that you follow several rules that you should adhere to if you are pregnant.
It should be said that the usual painting of hair can bring a pregnant unpleasant surprise in the form of a sudden allergy, even if you have never had it before on the paint components. This is due to the change in the hormonal background of the pregnant woman, the paint can not "cope" with your hair, and you can be disappointed not only with an allergic reaction, but with an unsuccessful hair color. The use of dark tones can give the most unpredictable result. Suppose, deciding to tint your chestnut or black roots, you can easily become the owner of a smart green or purple hair. Therefore, the optimal solution is to repaint your hair before hair with a shade closer to your natural hair color, or give preference to natural dyes such as henna and basma or just lightly toning your hair. Different shade tonic shampoos and tonics, most often contain substances of plant origin, in addition, they contain vitamins and supplements that will make your hair soft and well-groomed. Coloring substances in such color shades do not penetrate deep into the hair and do not disturb its structure. The modern market of cosmetic products will offer you a range of tinted paints of both domestic and imported production, and their cost is much lower than persistent paints. And despite the fact that such dyes do not differ in long-lasting resistance, confidence in their attractiveness and neat appearance with the least risk for a future child will be guaranteed to you.
What precautions should the future mother take, if she decided to dye her hair? If it concerns the lightening of the hair, then a very important point is not to overexpose the clarifier on the head, the heat reaction can raise blood pressure. Hair coloring should be carried out in a well-ventilated area, with good ventilation, so when going to the salon, make sure that all these requirements are met. In the period of toxicosis, which is usually persecuted by most women in the first months of pregnancy, it is better to refuse hair dyeing. In order not to focus on the uneven coloring of hair, you can use different hairpins, bandages, rims, giving your image more style and personality. If possible, try to postpone the coloration of the hair before the fourth month of pregnancy, as in the first trimester the pregnant woman is most vulnerable and it is very undesirable to breathe poisonous vapors of the paint.
And do not forget that frequent staining together with hormonal changes can weaken your hair. Use firming decoctions of herbs for rinsing hair after washing, make natural masks, and then, perhaps, your curls will not require any additional interventions.
However, remember that regular hair dyeing, with hormonal changes taking place in the body of a woman, put your hair at risk and can significantly weaken them. Do not forget to pamper your hair with strengthening masks on the basis of natural ingredients, use balms after washing your hair.
What to do if during a pregnancy you suddenly become concerned about dandruff? Many doctors do not recommend using dandruff remedies during pregnancy, arguing for the presence of harmful substances, but this is only a hypothesis, science also has no scientifically proven data on this matter.
But with a chemical wave everything is different. Very often the habitual wave is simply not able to "curb" your hair. Due to changes in the condition of the hair, they become stronger and stronger - they are more resistant to traumatic factors. Because of the influence of hormones, the reaction of hair to chemical perms can be unexpected. It is better to hold a test on a small hair first, if the wave does not work, it is better to postpone it until a more favorable time. In conclusion, I want to say that it's up to you to decide whether to dye your hair during pregnancy or not, and this question will remain open for further discussions.
