Patient's question:
Doctor,I plan to have a baby. Considering that I cannot have straight or permed hair during pregnancy, I would like to get a straight or partial perm half a month or a month before conception. Will it affect anything?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is best not to get a hair treatment during pregnancy. Since most hair dye products contain toxic heavy metals, such as mercury, lead, etc. These can be easily absorbed by the scalp into the bloodstream. The fetus relies on absorbing nutrients from the mother's blood to maintain normal growth. It is best to avoid hair treatments that use chemical products. Of course, there is generally no significant impact, so there is no need to worry too much. It is not beneficial for your pregnancy, so be cautious in the future and make sure to have regular prenatal check-ups. Wishing you good health.
