Hair dye

I wanted to dye my hair (my roots are coming out) and I'm maybe about 2-3 weeks pregnant. Is it not recommended or will I (and baby) be at risk? My husband told me he read that I should stay away from fumes. Just want to make sure before I risk anything.

Just don't do it in a closed bathroom. Wear a painter mask if you are worried. I was told it was fine.

I  was told it was fine as well. I love when doctors act like these questions are so silly. "Well you aren't going to wait it are you?" :)

Sorry thought you said you was 29 week but it still doesn't matter. Put a face mask on.
