I would just make sure its well ventilated and you are fine. The smell of hair dye bothers me, but not because its bad for baby-- I feel the same way about laundry detergent or the bakery at the store. Overpowering odors. 

So, you might want to schedule your appointment first thing in the morning and bring a mini fan or something to keep air moving.

On the whole its fine to dye your hair all throughout your pregnancy.

I had an appointment Saturday and asked my stylist about it.  She said it would be fine.

I had mine done last week, full highlights and didn't have any problems.  I did not tell my stylist.

My sister is a beautician. She says that the only thing that is unsafe is box color (but she is very against box color anyway haha). Going to a salon is fine. :)

I just had all over color done yesterday, its fine. my stylist uses ammonia free dye for everyone so there was no horrible smell either!

I'm a hair dresser and getting your hair dyed is totally fine. Its up to you if you want to share with your stylist. The only thing we can not guarantee is since your hormones are going crazy right now it can change the way the color turns out. You may always get the same color every time and then all of a sudden it turns darker or more of a red shade than normal. Other than that completely safe

it's fine. in fact, it's even fine to use colour on your entire scalp. there are no studies that say it's harmful otherwise.

I have been dying my hair since day one.  I am at 21 weeks and my LO is perfect.
