professionals only...? I am 13wks and nearing my 2nd trimester, My hair is an absolute mess b/c I couldn't get a relaxer. Has anyone out there relaxed their hair in the 2nd trimester or gotten any word that its ok at that point? I've heard stories that some women did them through their entire preg with no ill results on the baby. I was gonna use a mild or kiddie relaxer like pcj pretty and silky. please help! Serious answers ONLY!!!

Well i can't see the harm in putting a relaxer in your hair...My mom use perms in her hair while pregnant ans she was hesitant and first as well, she spoke with the doctor and he said it was fine....lots or people do it however, as chemicals change throw out the years, i would suggest you speak to your doctor....

I am not a hair care professional, but two of my sis in laws are and they both say absolutely no hair straightners, chemical or dies. It has not yet been able to prove if it is harmful or not.
