Safe to color hair?

Hello,
I know this is a rather insignificant question, and aplogize if it seems shallow. However, I finished taxotere, carboplatin in September and am now on Herceptin every three weeks. My hair has begun to grow and I was wondering when is is safe/ok to color it. I have a function coming soon and I would like to wear my natural hair...even though it will be very short.
Thanks,
Brenda
