Hair sample drug testing is a great way to detect whether or not a person has used drugs over the past few months. Hair drug testing by Transmetron can provide
a 90 day window of detection, which is useful for safety-critical positions where there is zero tolerance for drug use.
Hair testing is becoming one of the most utilized methods of drug testing. We think this is because, according to our most recent information, there are no solid ways to adulterate a hair specimen in order to falsify the results of the test; despite what some retailers advertise. This, and the historical window of use, makes a hair follicle drug test very attractive to many employers and individuals who want the most accurate method of detecting drugs.

How is a Hair Test Collected?
A hair drug test is actually quite simple and requires only a small volume of hair (about 120 strands) from an abscise spot (normally the back of the crown) in order to be
completed.
The hair is cut as close to the scalp as possible, and then is put into a chemical solution to rid the hair of all external contaminants and is then
liquefied and tested for drugs.
How far back can a hair drug test detect?
In most cases, a head hair sample can detect drug use for up to 90 days after use (for 1.5 inches of head hair). Body hair can go back as far as one year. The detection window is much larger in hair drug testing because
trace amounts of drug chemicals become trapped inside each hair. Like fingernail testing, hair follicles are composed of a hard protein called
keratin and are tested with the same process as fingernails. Drugs are incorporated into the hair's fibers from the blood stream and remain locked in the
hair as it grows.

Exposure Hair Testing
Detect external exposure to illicit drugs in children and infants. New testing procedures allow for the detetion of exposure to drugs in the air or on surfaces. Please ask for "Exposure Detection" at the time of hair drug test cfollection to check for exposure to drugs in an unsafe environment.
If you have any concerns about the use of drugs around your child or infant while they are in the custody of your ex-husband or ex-wife then you need an exposure hair drug test. In most cases, our Exposure Hair Testing can be used to detect exposure to drugs around an infant or child. Even if the drugs are just "in the air" or have contacted surfaces, children can still be exposed to dangerous drugs which can have long term effects, brain damage or even death!
