Answer 1

I wouldn't do it if I were you.  I've had perms before and the chemical smell alone is terrible!  Gyno's advise not to get your hair colored too.  Hy-lights are okay because they don't touch the scalp.  Find another way to look cute, you don't know what effects this could have on the fetus.  The first three months of pregnancy are critical because that's when all the organs and everything else is forming.  Please don't get a perm - think of the baby!  Besides, you're pregnant, you've already got a glow.
