Hair sample drug testing is a great way to detect whether or not a person has used drugs in the past 90 days. Hair drug testing can provide a much longer window of detection, which is useful for highly safety-critical positions where there is zero tolerance of drug usage.

Hair testing is becoming more reliable as technology advances, and there is no known way to adulterate a hair specimen in order to falsify the results of the test, despite what some retailers advertise.

Hair drug testing is actually quite simple and requires a small volume of hair in order to be completed. Employers can request a sample from their employees. Hair testing by Accudiagnotistc of Los Angeles, CA is fast and more accurate than other drug test forms.

For instance, hair sample drug testing can detect drug use for up to 90 days after use. The detection window is much larger in hair drug testing because trace amounts of drug chemicals become trapped inside each hair. A simple lab test can detect these trace chemicals making for either a positive or negative test result. Once the results are recorded, you are sent notification of the results.

• A hair follicle test can detect drug use for up to 90 days after use.

Does the person being tested need to be present for a hair follicle test?

A. It is better to have the person present. We cut a strand of hair as close to the scalp as possible, for the most accurate results.

How long after consumption does it take for evidence of drug use to show on a hair specimen?

A. It takes approximately one week after consumption for drug use to show on a hair sample. That is because the hair must grow above the scalp before it can be tested.
