Hair care becomes even more important when you’re pregnant.
In addition to so many other bodily changes taking place during pregnancy, your hair transforms, too.
Soon after you deliver, you also tend tolose a great amount of hair.
In addition, your hair texture can also change throughout the nine months.
It may become more curly and wavy than usual but it also can end up looking straight and limp.
Dr. Paradi Mirmirani, a dermatologist, tellsWebMDthat the diameter of hair follicles increases during pregnancy.
“We don’t understand the exact mechanism,” explains Mirmirani.
The shape of the follicle dictates the shape of the hair fiber."
This abrupt change can leave people searching for a way to spruce up their hairstyle.
However, not all hair treatments can be safely performed during pregnancy.
Again, there are very limited studies regardingpregnant people and hair dyes.
Another option is simply to use a curling wand or straightener.
Pregnancy is also a great time to experiment with a new haircut.
