Pregnancy safe beauty products can be super difficult and confusing. I have an entire guide devoted to what products are safe to use while pregnant including information on what ingredients to avoid while pregnant and a huge list of pregnancy safe skincare products.
Here you’ll find pregnancy safe products from Head & Shoulders as of 4/20/2025. If it is not safe, I’ll tell you why. All of the products meet my pregnancy safe criteria. Note I will link to every product directly to avoid confusion. You’ll know exactly which product I mean.
Note, I’ve tried to make product names consistent with what is on the product images from the Head & Shoulders website. Sometimes they say Charcoal, sometimes White Charcoal for example. So, look at your packaging and also look at slight variations.
