Pregnant women know that there are many things that need to be avoided after pregnancy. Some things cannot be eaten, some places cannot be visited, and some things cannot be done. Due to the customs of each place, and the fact that there are also many customs for pregnant women, such as not being able to attend other people's weddings and not having their heads cut. So, can I have my hair cut after pregnancy?
Firstly, pregnant women can have their hair cut. From a scientific perspective, cutting hair does not pose a threat to pregnant women and fetuses. Of course, whether pregnant women cut their hair or not depends on their personal preferences and habits. In fact, cutting hair after pregnancy can make pregnant women's lives more convenient and easier to manage.
Secondly, there is a folk belief that hair cutting is not allowed during pregnancy, as it may cause fetal instability or miscarriage. In addition, cutting hair requires the use of sharp objects such as scissors, which has a negative connotation. Therefore, in many places, women are not allowed to cut their hair after pregnancy. However, this is actually a misconception and has no scientific basis.
Finally, when cutting hair, it is best to wash it with shampoo, cut it short, and then dry it with a hair dryer, without using anything harmful to the fetus. Nowadays, hair salons also use warm water to wash hair without getting cold, so cutting hair after pregnancy is a normal phenomenon. However, during pregnancy, one should not dye, perm, or straighten their hair, as these procedures involve the use of many chemicals such as softening, shaping, and coloring, which may have a negative impact on the fetus. In severe cases, it may also cause fetal deformities. Therefore, do not harm the baby in your belly just for the sake of beauty.
In short, after pregnancy, women's bodies will become heavier and shorter hair will be more conducive to cleaning, without the need for laborious hair styling, saving time and effort.
