It is unlikely to affect breastmilk. It mostly depends on the composition being used for keratin treatment (formaldehyde etc.) But, there is no conclusive evidence as of now  whether it is safe or unsafe during lactation. Hence better to avoid.

No clear cut guidelines are there. Better to postpone it if it's not urgent.
