Pregnancy: Any chemicals can affect pregnancy. If it is something you can live without, it is best to wait until after delivery.

Yes: Bleaching or dyeing your hair is completely safe., but because of hormonal changes, your hair may not take coloring the way it would if not pregnant. So, bleach those ends, but don't neglect those roots as well!
