Avoid the use of hair removing creams: During pregnancy, the skin becomes sensitive to pain. The usage of the hair removing creams can cause allergy or rashes to the pregnant woman. Waxing can be very painful. You can consult your physician or visit a good spa.
Avoid going for a manicure and using artificial nails: Artificial nails must be strictly avoided during pregnancy as the chemicals used in it can be quickly absorbed in to the skin. This can be harmful. Manicures and pedicures should also be avoided.
