Loving cleanliness and beauty is the habit of every female friend. Many pregnant women wash their hair during pregnancy to ensure that their hair is shiny, black, and shiny. Many pregnant women are accustomed to using a hair dryer after washing their hair. So, can pregnant women use hair dryers? What are the precautions for pregnant women to use hair dryers? Next, the editor will provide a detailed introduction for everyone.
Can pregnant women use hair dryers
The radiation from a hair dryer is not ionizing radiation and does not cause much harm to human health. Pregnant women can use it to blow dry their hair. Some pregnant women are also concerned that asbestos particles in hair dryers may be expelled with strong winds and absorbed by the human body, causing harm to the fetus. In fact, the vast majority of hair dryers on the market now use materials such as ceramics and mica for insulation, while hair dryers made of asbestos have gradually been phased out.
Pregnant women who are concerned about the adverse effects of hair dryers on their fetuses should not only reduce the use of hair dryers, but also choose well-known electrical brands with higher safety factors.
What are the precautions for pregnant women to use hair dryers
1. Try to stay away from the head as much as possible. When using a hair dryer, do not blow directly onto the hair when it is turned on. Let the hair dryer blow out some accumulated dust before using it to dry the hair. Place the hair dryer away from the head to avoid overheating and injuring the scalp.
2. Dry your hair dry first. Before using a hair dryer to blow hair, it is best to dry the dripping water on the hair with a dry towel. You can use a highly absorbent towel to wipe the hair, which can reduce the time spent using the hair dryer and dry the hair as soon as possible.
3. Don't keep blowing. In fact, blowing hair continuously for a long time can easily damage hair quality. Pregnant women should stop blowing for a while. It is best not to blow hair with a hair dryer for more than half an hour.
4. Blow your hair on the edges. In order to blow dry hair as soon as possible and avoid taking too long, pregnant women should divide their hair into two parts when blowing, top and bottom or left and right. When blowing, insert your fingers into your hair and comb it to make the airflow smoother, and your hair will dry faster.
5. Avoid electric leakage. Do not use a hair dryer in damp environments as it can easily cause electrical leakage.
6. Do not use hot air. It is best to choose warm or cold air when using a hair dryer, and try to avoid using hot air as much as possible. High temperature hot air not only damages hair, but also stimulates the scalp.
The above is some information about using hair dryers for pregnant women that the editor has introduced to you. I hope it will be helpful to you. Here, the editor suggests that pregnant women should wash their hair less, as washing too much is not good for the fetus in the womb. Be extra careful when using a hair dryer. Hair dryers also emit radiation, so I suggest pregnant women try to use them sparingly.
