My dadi (grandmother) said it's not good to cut hair during pregnancy, and I'm feeling a bit confused. I really want to get a haircut, but I don't want to do anything that might be harmful. Is it actually safe to cut hair when you're pregnant?
Yes, cutting hair is totally fine and safe! But if you are worried about hair fall, sometimes it's related to thyroid level changes during pregnancy. Make sure you are regular with your doctor follow-ups and blood tests to keep your thyroid levels in check.
A haircut is 100% safe. Just avoid any chemical treatments like hair coloring or smoothening, and stick to a simple cut. I always preferred to combine salon trips with my light evening walks to keep active, but only after checking with my doctor.
Oh, this is just an old superstition, dear! There is absolutely no medical reason why you can't cut your hair during pregnancy. Go ahead and get a nice, comfortable haircut to feel fresh.
Of course you can cut your hair! Honestly, with twins, managing long hair was a nightmare, so I cut it short immediately. Just make sure the salon chair is comfortable for your back.
