When can I safely dye my hair in pregnancy?

Question

Hi ladies,
I’m 7 weeks pregnant and heard it’s best to hold off until second trimester to get your hair done. I always get a full head of highlights and the root situation is real right now 😂.
I’m more than okay to wait for the safety of my baby but just wondering if it is safe for me to get it done in second trimester?
