I'm currently 21 weeks pregnant and wondering if it's safe to get my eyebrows threaded. Could it affect the baby in any way?

Threading your eyebrows during pregnancy, specifically at 21 weeks, is generally considered safe for the baby, as it's a superficial procedure that doesn't involve any chemicals or invasive techniques that could harm the fetus; however, it's essential to ensure the threading salon follows proper hygiene and sanitation procedures to minimize the risk of infection.
