perms

HI there Tanya

According to the BREASTFEEDING ANSWER BOOK, published by La Leche League International, no evidence exists that the nursing mother's use of hair-care products, such as hair dyes and permanents, has any effect on her breastfeeding baby. When a mother uses hair-care products, some of the chemicals will be absorbed through her skin. If her scalp is healthy and intact, less will be absorbed than if the skin on her scalp is scratched or abraded.

Can you perm your hair when breastfeeding? Im bored with my hair and thought I would put a slight wave in it. Im currently breastfeeding a 6 week old, so not sure if its safe or not
