Are environmental phenotypical changes transmitted to the offspring?

Changes caused on phenotypes by the environment are not transmitted to the offspring (unless their primary cause is genotypical change in germ cells or in gametic cells). If a person alters the color of the hair or undergoes aesthetic plastic surgery the resulting features are not transmitted to his/her offspring.
