There are safe hair dyes you can use you know - you could ask your hairdresser. Say you want to be ultra careful as you are pregnant. You won't have time once baby comes especially as this is your second!! As for the argon oil product, there is a lot of info on internet about using it during pregnancy for stretch marks, and indeed as a baby moisturiser, so I'm sure it'll be fine as a conditioner. You could ask a pharmacist if you are worried but personally I would have used it without worries. Good luck!

I had colour treatments (glossing, non ammonia products) during pregnancy through a salon. I figured as there are no warnings for pregnant ladies on hair products that I would be safe having this done by a professional.

Speaking as a pregnant hair dresser it is safe to colour your hair during pregnancy, the worry is often in regards to what the actual colour will come out like rather than harm to baby. the change of harmones means that the pigmentation in the colour can vary by a shade or two than it did pre pregnancy, this isn't to say that you can't colour your hair for it not to be perfectly identical. Moreover darkening hair is a kinder process than lightening hair. if you want to keep on top of your hair colou but are concerned for baby you could resort to low-lights, this would mean ur re growth is less obvious but the colour ant itself does not come in contact with your scalp.

As far as I'm aware argan oil is perfectly safe you use in pregnancy as are conditioning treatments in general. Keratin products are particularly good fir dry hair as hair consists of natural keratin. If you fancy a pamper day and are able to splurge on your self it may be worth considering a brazilian blowdry to replenish your hairs moisture.
