    This might sound like a silly question but can you get highlights when your pregnant? I really want to get something done to it but I have this vague memory of someone saying you can't dye your hair while pregnant. :)

    Yes you can get your highlights done, but make sure that you get a sensitivity test done at least 48hrs beforehand as your skin will be more sensitive than normal.

    Highlights are fine as they don't touch the scalp... i have coloured hair and use a semi-permanent colour every 8 weeks or so.. The permanent ones aren't recommended as the peroxide is stronger and your skin is naturally more sensitive when you're pregnant. .. sometimes you can get a different result from the colour, i find mine doesn't take as well or last as long .. ;) Here's a link ..
