Relaxer

Using relaxers in your hair during pregnancy is considered probably safe during pregnancy. However, it is best to wait until your second trimester when your developing baby is less vulnerable. The reason pregnant women do not use relaxers while pregnant is because the pregnancy hormones change the texture of your hair and the end result may not be desired. Make sure you are in a well ventilated area. Let your hair stylist know that you are pregnant. Always discuss any possible risks to using relaxers in your hair during pregnancy with your physician.
