Definitely talk to your doctor. Gloves are a must. The first 3 months are the most crucial for development, so make sure you are not dying you own hair, and are taking extra precautions when doing it to someone else. Maybe you can wear a small mask so your not inhaling chemicals? Your doctor is the only one who can tell you for sure, but I believe as long as your careful you should be alright.

talk to your doc. gloves are very important when working with any chemicals, especially now. your doc can tell you exactly what to do.

I think you should continue working until your last few weeks of pregnancy.

No, it's good to have something to do. Unless you have health issues I would hang in there. LOL

No. Work full time until 7 months then just work part time until you get to 9months but just do the cashier so u can sit at times. No need to quit your job.

I need to go to your salon. Pregnant women are hot and I need a hair cut. Perfect!!!!

well have you thought about the stress it bring upon you? i mean running a bussiness isnt a piece of cake plus full time wow thats a lot of work maybe you should get someone u trust to give you a hand until ur baby is born.

I would double check with the doctor, but to my understanding the chemicals are a lot safer than they were. My sister was at the salon like once or twice a month getting her hair died, not to mention she hung out at the salon 3-4 days a week, ( our Friends owned it) and my niece is just fine!

work until you're not able to. that means that if you're not comfortable standing for extended periods of time, if the smells are making you ill, or any other side effects caused by working while pregnant. i had horrible morning sickness and (being a chef) working in a kitchen was awful. i had to stop working about 3 months into my pregnancy because i was so sick. however i would have loved to be able to continue working because being home and sick was very tiresome.
as long as you're not inhaling the chemicals in the salon (i.e you're not bleaching peoples hair etc) you should be fine working while pregnant.
good luck!

You can keep working, but quit when you get tired and you cannot complete the work fully. I would say around 7 months when theres a possibility the baby can be born. (7-9 months 7 months for the premature)
