Yet Tracy Henkes, senior artis- tic director with the Saks Fifth Av- enue hair salon at the Somerset Collection, reports that many hair dyes are available which can safe- ly be used on pregnant women. Always check first with your physician, but it's a good bet you'll be able to find, through a rep- utable salon, an ammonia-free, al- cohol-free hair color. (Note: many store-bought hair colors contain alcohol and/or ammonia and should not be used.) The issue is not what you put on the hair, which is, after all, dead. The issues are what will per- meate into your skin through treatments that come in contact with the scalp, and what you might take into your body simply by breathing it in. Keep this in mind not only for hair products but for all chemicals, from paint thinner to nail-polish remover (Mr. Ventimiglia recommends us- Yes, ofcourse I'm crying just be- ing non-acetone remover).

The best advice for men would be to get their pregnant sweethearts a gift certificate for a day at the spa, complete with massage, pedi- cure and manicure. fight words — seemingly so innocent — are enough to strike terror in the heart of any hairdresser: "I'm preg- nant and I want a new look." Salvatore Ventimiglia, a styl- ist with Saks Fifth Avenue at the Somerset Collection in Troy, is try- ing to explain it delicately. A woman's hormones during preg- nancy, he says hesitantly, then pauses. `Well, you know. This is not the time for a radical haircut." Mr. Ventimiglia is the father of three, so he knows.
