We all know that when you are pregnant, you should not color your hair, or so they say. I remember being pregnant with my first and my hair was so wacky and I wanted it colored (well, highlighted) and I knew I shouldn’t. I did get a few highlights but was sure it was not too many or too close to my scalp.

Color Your Hair Safely

What is a pregnant or new mama to do? Gray Away is something you CAN use while pregnant/breastfeeding because Gray Away is safe and made of mineral-derived pigments, similar to wearing eyeshadow or blush! So no feeling guilty for looking good 🙂

Why Gray Away?
Ø  Gray roots start to show only 2 weeks after hair coloring, Gray Away is an easy and convenient way to spray away gray roots instantly (or to cover up regrowth of darker hair).

Ø  Gray Away does not contain dyes, it contains mineral derived pigments and it is safe for everyone to use, even pregnant women!

Gray Away is a great value ($12.99 for 1.5 oz.) and is available in drugstores nationwide and online.

    I was pregnant in the 80’s so it’s been awhile. I remember that I had to keep all medical appointments and it was essential for me stay moisturized and hydrated.

  5. Sylvie W says

    You will get a slew of advice from people but at the end of the day, have your own pregnancy. Dress the way you want to dress, eat the healthy foods you want to eat, just ride your nine months in your own style.

  8. Dorothy Reynolds says

    Tons of water and a rubber band to keep wearing the “regular” pants a little while longer.

  14. Lauren Harmon says

    I’ve never been pregnant, sadly… I hope that day comes soon. My beauty tip is to use coconut oil for everything! It’s a great conditioner, you can use it as a mouth wash to help whiten your teeth, and it’s even good for baking! I love the stuff!

  17. Kathy Pease says

    My hair was very dry when I was preggo. It still is so what I do is sleep with coconut oil in my hair with a shower cap to condition overnight..It does seem to make my hair softer

  18. Whitney Lindeman says

    I’ve never been pregnant, but I am a birth doula so I have lots of pregnancy tips! 🙂 If you feel good, you’ll look good. Do prenatal yoga! Drink tea! Get as much sleep as you can!

  26. MARIA simon says

  27. Kelly Britton says

    My pregnancy tip is to get plenty of rest, sit with your feet up and drink plenty of liquids. Get out in the sunshine for at least twenty minutes a day to get your vitamin D. 🙂

  30. amy pugmire says

    In the summer I added sunblock to my daily routine before i applied my foundation or powder. I felt protected and that it kept my skin looking younger.

  34. Melanie Montgomery says

    I used bronzer to brighten my face, I was so pale from being nauseated all the time.

  37. Dana Cerrito says

    Mix Olive Oil and sugar. Scrub hands with mixture. Rinse. Your hands will be as soft as a babies bum

  41. Angela Cash says

    I have never been pregnant but my best beauty tip is to immerse your fingertips in ice water after a manicure to quickly dry the polish.

  47. stacy says

    My tip is to use cotton swabs for makeup mistakes. They are great for fixing eyeliner, eye shadow, and mascara smudges, as well as lip liner and lipstick smudges too.

  49. Tricia J says

    I have been pregnant 6 times and have 6 sons. I have used root touch up kits and just did the color on my part as that where most people notice the grey. Most of my grey seems to be on top, toward the back. My other beauty tips are to drink plenty of water as its good for you, the baby and its good for your skin. Always get plenty of sleep, as its good for you and the baby and you are less like to have dark, baggy and puffy eyes. If possible, have your honey, give you shoulder/back rubs especially if you are feeling anxious. Lastly, use the best lotion you can to use on your tummy to keep the stretch marks to a minimal. If you tend to get extra large in your breasts, consider lotion on them too. (Check with your doctor about using lotion on your breasts if you plan to breast feed as I had my children over time. Sometimes things that were okay for my first pregnancy wasn’t by my 5th and vice versa).

  54. Karrie Millheim says

    Cocoa butter..I used it to keep my hands and feet soft but mainly to keep the stretch marks from being bad

  56. Gennie Lancaster says

    My best tip is to get plenty of rest and drink a lot of water, it really helps your complexion.

  60. krystal wethington says

    I havent been pregnant but i know you should drink plenty of water, get lots of rest and take your vitamins.

  71. Lorri says

    Exercise (I know nobody wants to hear it), wear comfortable clothes, drink water and eat healthy food. Most of all listen to your physician. They can give you the best advice if you only ask. Hydrate your skin with Vaseline Petroleum Jelly (the main ingredient in the expensive stuff!).

  74. Susan Robbins says

    Stay well hydrated, use lots of baby oil, cocoa butter, any kind of lubricant, doesn’t have to be expensive or name brand, on abdomen and breasts to reduce stretch marks. Get everything done ahead because there will be no free time once the baby is born.

  75. Angela W says

    I always use a foundation that is combined with sunscreen to prevent sun damage and pre mature wrinkles.

  76. virgil poore says

    well myself i have no clue as i am a man lol but this is what my wife said when i ask her. says to moisturize daily if not more then once a day.with a good shea butter (yea i am lost at this point) and make sure to drink a whole lot of milk and calcium that way it doesnt drain the momma out and can effect teeth if they start loosing calcium.and to takr or drink or eat looks of vitiamin says it is hard to eat first bit of the pregnancy so to take them.will keep you feeling better

  77. Rachael Ashcraft says

    WHen I as pregnant I never really did anything differently than I usually did. Only big difference is that I had my husband shave my legs at the end!

  80. Sadie Carey says

    I used Henna Dye in my hair while I was pregnant. I just could not go without dying my hair and it is a natural product. I also used orange oil to help calm my stomach and lavender oil to calm me.

  81. Carla says

    I’ve never been pregnant, so my beauty tip is to wear sunscreen year round and never leave the house without makeup.

  87. Audra O'Hara says

    When I was pregnant my hair got very oily. I experimented with different braids and hair accessories so if I felt yucky and didn’t feel like doing my hair I still had a way of making it look nice.

  90. Terri Moore says

    I would carry healthy snacks with me whenever I left the house because I think proper nourishment is the key to a beautiful pregnancy. let the glow show.

  100. Jen R says

    I have never been pregnant so my beauty tips are to drink lots of water and use a good nighttime moisturizer.

  101. Sandy Cain says

    My beauty tip for pregnancy is to look in the mirror every day and admire yourself. I was gorgeous when I was pregnant – my hair and nails grew quick, my skin glowed, and I felt SO feminine! I’d see skinny little things, and think, “Huh! THEY look like boys!”. The bigger my belly got, the prettier I felt.

  102. alona y says

    The further I got into pregnancy the less tips and tricks I had! I would say having just a few truly comfortable and flattering pieces of clothing helped immensely. They are out there, it’s just finding them!

  104. Julie Link says

    As a new mom – give yourself time to get a mani/pedi – this will make you feel pretty and also gives you an hour of relaxation.

  108. susan wiener says

    I use vasoline before putting on make up. Makes it look very smooth and professional.

    Use moisturizer on your skin and you shouldn’t change your make uo routine. You feel as good ss you look.

    Pregnancy always made my hair look shiny and soft and my best tip would be to wear clothes that are attractive but that are comfortable. I was pregnant during the summer months and had to wear mostly cotton type tops to stay cool.

  112. Janet W. says

    I don’t have any really unique tips, but I remember putting cocoa butter on my belly and rubbing that on every night to help prevent stretch marks. It worked for me!

  114. Elizabeth Drake says

    I get sunburned easily, sunscreen rarely helps. The solution? Big floppy sun hats, plus a pretty parasol!

  115. Jessica To says

    I was very pasty so I would recommend using blush or bronzer to brighten your face.

  119. Sadie B. says

    When I was pregnant, I scheduled pedicures. I couldn’t reach my feet and it felt great to take care of my toes.

  120. sara wood says

    When you are pregnant no matter how bad you feel take the time to dress everyday. Sitting around in your pjs wont make you feel any better about your appearance.

  123. ellen beck says

    I wouldnt say it is creative but a very good tip is to stay active by walking or whatever you are abe to do. They dont call it labor for nothing 🙂 The better shape you are in the easier it will go for you

  124. christine jessamine says

    I have had to use alot of facial moisturizer and stretch mark cream from early on.

  126. Terry Maigi says

    My beauty tip is to stay hydrated and keep exercising! When you feel beautiful and healthy on the inside it radiates on the outside!

    Drink lots of water, moisturize your skin all over, especially the belly.

  206. Zel G. says

    When I was pregnant 28 years ago and frequently waking up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, plus waking up early to catch a ferry into work, my tired eyes would reflect my lack of sleep. Lining my lower lashes with a vivid color helped to brighten them. Back in the ’80s it was the bright blue. Now using a white pencil easily does the trick.

  207. Katy M says

    Let’s see. First of all, f you feel good you will look good. Also, I recommend women get into maternity clothes ASAP. They’re so comfy and you will need a few pieces. Might as well get the most wear out of them possible.
