A member asked:
Is it harmful for a brest feed baby if his mom dye her hair?

Hair dye: Hair follicles are technically dead tissue and the process of dying them should not have any effect on breast feeding your child unless by some strange way you ingest any of the hair dye. This would be a different story. I hope this helps.

No: As long as the baby is not exposed to any of the chemicals during her feeding.
