You can dye your hair, it's just better to wait for your second trimester. I am a cosmetologist and your hair dye will NOT seep through your roots and hurt your fetus. That is completely inaccurate the only thing is you should be in a well ventilated room or use ammonia free hair dye.

It should be fine, they haven't found anything in research thAt links dying hair and harm to the baby. Like above check with your doctor, and I would also tell the person doing your hair if you aren't doing it yourself. If you do it yourself you'll want to do a test spot to make sure your hair is still reacting the same. I just got mine done yesterday and I'm 33 weeks

It's okay to dye your hair just not in the roots because chemical could go through the roots and that could go to the fetus

I colored my hair all throughout my pregnancy.  Double check with your doctor, but it should be fine anytime.
