Dying hair in first trimester?

Can I dye my hair at 10 weeks pregnant? I know there’s a lot of mixed opinions on this, but to my knowledge, no conclusive evidence saying it’s dangerous for baby. 

My hair stylist said it’s fine and that she died her hair throughout her entire pregnancy 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thoughts?

    I definitely recommend taking to your doctor rather than your hair stylist for medical advice. That said, one great evidence-based resource for any exposures during pregnancy or breastfeeding is Mother to Baby. Here's their fact sheet on hair treatments: https://mothertobaby.org/fact-sheets/hair-treatments-pregnancy/

    To summarize, they haven't found any evidence that it's harmful, though people who work in the settings do have higher rates of complications.
