That's correct. I was getting highlights every 6 weeks and colored it myself this last time (about 4 weeks ago). I plan on hitting up Sally's and doing it again this weekend. No real suggestions besides not closing yourself in a tiny bathroom for 40 minutes with no fan (I guess that's kinda obvious though, huh? ha)
Yep, and I did it my previous pregnancy as well. My OB is fine with it. I don;t do it in my first trimester, though. I went at 14 weeks this time and go back next weekend (thank goodness, my gray is starting to show!). I will squeeze in another appointment right before baby is due - I need to look good at the hospital

I have also gotten my highlights done twice since getting pregnant.
DD #1 passed away in January 2011 at 14 days old due to congenital heart disease
DD#2 lost in January 2012 at 23 weeks due to anhydramnios caused by a placental abruption
Just got my highlights done an hour ago. I dyed my hair all through my pregnancy with DD as well, doctor said it was perfectly fine as long as it's in a well ventilated area.

i had my hair colored at a salon a week before my BFP. i held out until 12 weeks and dyed it again myself at home, in the bathroom. i dyed it again a little over three weeks ago, again, at home. once the color is all on i leave the bathroom and wait for it to process in a better ventilated part of the house. i use Feria.
as for those who are so concerned about it touching their scalp: it's really the fumes you should be worrying about.

Yeah, I did. I had an appointment a few weeks ago and have another at the end of the month. I normally just use demi perm, but last time I also got some highlights. If I normally did all over permanent dye, I'd keep doing that. I'm not really worried about the chemicals.

Yes, but I didn't do it until 2nd trimester, just because I don't go to the salon regularly. I guess three months had passed between visits.
Whole foods sells Ammonia free dyes that work well, they have no smell at all.
I last dyed my hair the night of my BFP.
I want to do it again but I'm worried about frying my hair

I had a hair color smoothie for breakfast.
