Which drug test holds up better in court hair or urine?

If you're clean, why worry about it? If you're dirty, stop using.

Which drug test holds up better in court hair or urine?

hair. I believe that it stays for anywhere from a few months to a year.

Which drug test holds up better in court hair or urine?

I believe they are both used as evidence in court but my guess for the better of the two would be hair.

Which drug test holds up better in court hair or urine?

Urine

Which drug test holds up better in court hair or urine?

Their both used in court but hair holds all the evidence longer but wheras urine is only good for 24hrs because the kidneys flush it out of the system quicker

Which drug test holds up better in court hair or urine?

Hair... it takes longer for the drugs to come out of hair.

Does percosett show up in the standard nida 5 hair test.?

Hey i have been having shoulder pain for the last month so I took some percosett from my dad. Now I am on probation and have to get my hair tested every 3 months. I took about 10 pills in three days which amounts to 50 mg of oxycodone. I have seen this question answered before and the verdict was that it would show up. However someone asked whether adderall would show up and the answers suggested that it would. I know for a fact the adderall does not show up in the standard nida 5 drug test since I have been taking this drug for 12 months now and had my hair tested 3 times by 2 different clinics. I passed all tests. So could somebody who actually knows what they are talking about answer this question for me. As opposed to someone who read somewhere or heard that hair tests show everything. The erowid vault on the internet seems to suggest that oxycodone would not show up in the standard nida 5. Just wondering if that where true. I will follow up with the results of thetest

Does percosett show up in the standard nida 5 hair test.?

Sorry to say, but yes, they will show up for sure.

Does percosett show up in the standard nida 5 hair test.?

Yes, they test for opiates. your'e really screwed because hair tests show a long period of time

I have a question about hair folicle drug testing?

can hair sample taken from a hair brush be tested and how long is that sample good for? The sample has been in baggie for about a year and a half... Thank you in advance

I have a question about hair folicle drug testing?

A standard hair follicle screen covers a period of approximately 90 days, but is susceptible to time variation depending on the growth rate of your hair. The hair sample is cut as close to the scalp as possible and the most recent 3.9cm (or 1.5 inches) are tested. It is possible to go back even further than 90 days since the time period is limited only by the length of the hair sample, but is standardized to a 90 day history.

I have a question about hair folicle drug testing?

The sample may have degarded a bit but the most important thing is that the sample can get a several month period depending on how long it is.....you do not need a root bulb on the folicle in order to test for drugs, only for a DNA test.

I have a question about hair folicle drug testing?

not unless it was frozen within 3 days. you yank a fresh hair and check it for weed. it will tell whether or not you smoked weed in the past 24 weeks

Help! Will a hair test detect if you did a drug once 5 months ago?

Depends on the drug.

Help! Will a hair test detect if you did a drug once 5 months ago?

yes, if you smoked some weed they can see it, so i guess you could cut your hair if your a guy.

Help! Will a hair test detect if you did a drug once 5 months ago?

Uh, no...5 months is a long time!! Weed stays in your system for only 2 weeks...and crack for about 72 hours, if doing a urine test. A hair test can go as far back as 90 days (three months). If you've been clean for 5 months...you are fine.

Help! Will a hair test detect if you did a drug once 5 months ago?

Yes it can. Hair samples are the most effient way to test for anything. Even if you flush your system it will still stay in your hair. They can find out what and when you used it.

If i smoke pot once will i fail a drug test?

Okay so here is the deal. I used to smoke pot. I haven't really smoked pot since February. But a few nights ago I took 3 hits of a joint. If i were to get drug tested next week would I fail that drug test? Standard pee test. Not a hair test.

I know that no body can tell me for sure...but what do you think the odds are?

If i smoke pot once will i fail a drug test?

Well don't do drugs and then you would not have to worry about it.

If i smoke pot once will i fail a drug test?

possible

If i smoke pot once will i fail a drug test?

I think the odds are really, really low of being positive.

Usually you're good in 3-5 days. Especially since you don't smoke often - I wouldn't worry about it.

If i smoke pot once will i fail a drug test?

I think the odds are that they will fine it even if it is a small amount. Just drink lots of water. See if that helps. can't tell you for sure that is will flush you out. Mostly it takes about 30 days for a trace to disappear

If i smoke pot once will i fail a drug test?

yes you would likely fail it. it would take approx 3 weeks for you to be out of the woods with a urine test.

If i smoke pot once will i fail a drug test?

i guess probably i mean well if u did i tlike 3 nights ago well i ama not really sure

If i smoke pot once will i fail a drug test?

the odds arent good man, drink alot of water!!! good luck on that

How do I know if my hair is clean for a upcoming drug test?

the only drug that stays in your hair is weed, and that stays in your hair forever, that is in that strand of your hair, lets say u smoke weed and hour hair is 2 inches long, if you get a buzz cut right after, then your incoming hair will be fine, but they can take hair from other places than your head ;), my suggestion to you is, find a way out of a hair test, try to get a piss test.

How do I know if my hair is clean for a upcoming drug test?

Hello,

If you can get a pee test, these are not as good as hair.

There is none that I know of, however I have never had a problem with testing. I always brought my prescription with me.

Now that I am on the OMMP program I do not work so I do not need a drug test.

Good luck you may need it.

How do I know if my hair is clean for a upcoming drug test?

if you haven't done any drugs then it's clean. if you have then it's gonna show up positive. Thats whymost places test you hair instead of ur urine because the drug or what ever stays into your hair up to a year, unless you have some kind of treatment with cancer. But anything you takes orally comes ut thru you hair follicles anyway DUH!!

How do I know if my hair is clean for a upcoming drug test?

If they are testing your hair for a drug history you will not be able to hide it. Even after thousands of years traces of drugs can be found in human hair.

They use bleach to kill off aids germs in hypodermic needles so maybe if you became a serious bleached blond real quick you might get away with it. I do not know if this would work or not. Its just a random thought I came up with when I read your question. You might consider asking YA people if bleaching your hair will save you or not. Seems logical to me that somebody has tried this b4 now and would know about it. good luck...proxy

PS are you SURE they are doing hair test?

How does the military test for drug use, urine, hair, blood?

im not a heavy drug user just overly cautious. please reply ONLY IF YOU KNOW, NOT GUESSES,

How does the military test for drug use, urine, hair, blood?

Military only tests when they suspect drugabuse and when folks enlist. They don't test hair and nails. They take blood and test all in one including aids and hepatitis and tetanus and a lot more. (Including drugs). And when they suspect that you use drugs they might "offer" you a urinscreening. That's very easy with a paper they put in and it can't be the wrong color or so. Hair and nails, like a hair from your butcrack that's been there forever is not a standard testing object.

How does the military test for drug use, urine, hair, blood?

Well im not exactly sure for the military but i know doctors use urine for recent drug use and hair for past drug use.

Hope that helps

How does the military test for drug use, urine, hair, blood?

usually urine, but they might use hair every once in awhile if something comes up(more accurate, harder to clear out, takes longer to clear out).

THE MILITARY DID BLOOD TEST.

How does the military test for drug use, urine, hair, blood?

The military uses a urine test. If something comes up they will do further testing. If you have not used but walked into a situation where you might have gotten a contact high. Let someone know. They will probably think you are lying but it might help in the long run.

If your taking a drug test and they cut your hair how long does it go back for, the cps people said

BUT I heard that its can be over a year what is the right answer

If your taking a drug test and they cut your hair how long does it go back for, the cps people said only 3 day

Depends on the drug up to 90 days

hair tests

Are not significantly affected by brief periods of abstinence from drugs.

Can sometimes be used to determine when use occured and if it has been discontinued. Drugs, such as opiates (codeine, morphine, heroin) lay down on the hair shaft very tightly and are shown not to migrate along the shaft, thus, if a long segment of hair is available one can draw some "relative" conclusions about when the use occurred. However cocaine, although very easy to detect, is able to migrate along the shaft; making it very difficult to determine when the drug was used and for how long.

If your taking a drug test and they cut your hair how long does it go back for, the cps people said only 3 day

usually about 90 days

If your taking a drug test and they cut your hair how long does it go back for, the cps people said only 3 day

years and years depending on how long your hair is

If your taking a drug test and they cut your hair how long does it go back for, the cps people said only 3 day

Depends on which drug is tested for, but hair tests usually go back about 90 days or so, assuming you cut your hair regularly (like about once a month).

If your taking a drug test and they cut your hair how long does it go back for, the cps people said only 3 day

What!?!?!?! What does taking a drug test have to do with your hair growing?!?!?

If your taking a drug test and they cut your hair how long does it go back for, the cps people said only 3 day

They only take a few hairs! They just plucked out a few on my head, they wanted it all the way to the root. You will never know there missing. Unless you only have 20-30 to begin with. As far as new growth, it depends on how long it is.

If your taking a drug test and they cut your hair how long does it go back for, the cps people said only 3 day

Hair samples last the longest. Definately over 3 days!

Can I perform a drug test on a strand of hair left in the shower?

Can I perform a drug test on a strand of hair left in the shower?

yes you can it dont cost nothing if you know the right. doctor i have done this on hair. as well clothes as well in my honest opion?

Can I perform a drug test on a strand of hair left in the shower?

If you really think someone in your house is doing drugs to the point that you are going to pay to have this person tested...

I would say that instead of sneaking a hair, make an apt at the docs office, have them do a blood test (or hair i guess if you prefer). Dont tell person ahead of time. And basically just tell person that they either do the test or they are not living there anymore (assuming this is your house and im guessing this is a child).

Dont do it behind their back. Confront them to the face.

Can I perform a drug test on a strand of hair left in the shower?

No you can't .We operate hair drug testing lab and all tests from hair brush or from other sources than donor will be REJECTED.

Does this shampoo really help you pass a drug test?

Does Ultra Klean, Ultra Cleanse shampoo and conditioner really help you pass a hair follicle drug test?

Does this shampoo really help you pass a drug test?

They are all wrong.......It works....but here's the thing......Your hair has a lot of natural things in it, dirt grease, smoke , etc. The shampoo washes everything out...... so when the testers see there is no natural dirt and stuff ....a red flag goes up....Now here's the thing....if you are going for just a test .... they don't care, they will pass you.....I f you are going for a drug test because you have failed one , or under suspicion of a drug incident. they may make you retest because of using the shampoo.......bottom line ........it works!!!!!! I don't condone the use of drugs, but the drug testing programs suck....they are not set up to help a person with a drug problem they are set up to ensure the employer has his @ss covered and won't be held liable for anything. I love my country, but we treat our work force the worst for being Americans....maybe thats why so many of us have drug problems!

Does this shampoo really help you pass a drug test?

No. The test actually dissolves your hair and then they preform the test almost exactly the same as your piss. It is not what is on your hair it is what is in it. Can`t wash that out.

Does this shampoo really help you pass a drug test?

Hair test is a tuff one ......i have no idea how to beat that one

Does this shampoo really help you pass a drug test?

no shampoo won't work, the only thing that cleans drugs from your system is time, i've heard a few teas will but there's been no proof as far as i know

Does this shampoo really help you pass a drug test?

While I have no proof of this, I am going to say no. The reason that a drug test is done using the follicle of the hair is because drugs go into your system and are secreted out thru the hair follicles which, until it is pulled out or your head, are below the surface of your skin where the shampoo cannot get to.

Does this shampoo really help you pass a drug test?

i wouldn't think so, your hair and nails are dead cells and protein, not really living. So I doubt that a shampoo that only washed the surface if the hair shaft could do that.

When a drug test is done using a hair follicle if the person has done drugs how long does it stay in

It will remain in hair as long as you have that hair. That is the point of using it. It gives a long term look at potential past drug use.

When a drug test is done using a hair follicle if the person has done drugs how long does it stay in the hair?

for a very long time they can tell what you have used for the past 20 years. the hair hold chemicals.

until it grows out, your hair at your shoulders is 2 years old, hair grows at a quarter to half inch a month, but you can bleach your hair and it wont show cuz it kills everything, but if your a girl and not blonde you dont want to do that, but if your a boy you should just shave your head lol

Drug Testing: Urine vs. Hair?

Does anyone know which types of companies or industrties use urine drug testing and/or which use hair folicle testing? Or is just a matter of chioce by the individual company or the clinic in which the testing takes place?

Drug Testing: Urine vs. Hair?

It is each companies choice as to how they want to drug test their employees or applicants.

Drug Testing: Urine vs. Hair?

i would go ahead and say that 100% of companies do it by urine and only FBI-type of criminal cases will do something more specific like hair.

Hair follicle drug testing?

What is a guaranteed way to rid THC from your hair follicles. I have bough detox shampoo called Test Pure. I have also bought clarifying shampoo, TGel shampoo containing 1 Coal Tar and also have been saturating my hair with distilled white vinegar. Anybody know if this will work or if there is a better way, and no I will not stop smoking or get halp for my problems. So dont respond with counseling answers I dont need that.

Hair follicle drug testing?

Ok. But none of those things work. NOTHING is "guaranteed," that's for sure. Hair will test positive for THC 3-6 months after you have last smoked. And you can't color it either because the hair color does not get into the base root of the follicle--the part in your head. And that's what they test. I'm telling you from not only a police perspective (did that for 10 years) but now I research drugs and there is nothing that will work---but time.

**Oh, and if you shave it....they'll just automatically violate you.

Hair follicle drug testing?

Hi,

Did the cleansing shampoo work for you or any1 you personally know?

thx

Niko Report It

Hair follicle drug testing?

I hate to burst your bubble, but I don't know of a "guaranteed way." Those products don't work, and if you shave your head, they can use body hair.

Hair follicle drug testing?

Shave it!

Hair follicle drug testing?

THERE IS NO WAY TO RID ANY TOX FROM YOUR HAIR.

if you are taking a drug test of this nature there is no way to beat it and nothing you can buy to rid it. This test is an expensive and fool proof so- try whatever you want , your wasting time and money

Hair follicle drug testing?

There is no way to rid any kind of drugs from your hair follicles. Even if you did drugs 10 years ago and quit. It will still show up in your hair follicles. There are a lot of gimmicks on the market that say they work. But they do not. Some one said shave your head. But when it grows back the chemicals will still be there.

Hair follicle drug testing?

none of that will work, you noob.

you're screwed.

and by the way, if you shave your head, they'll just use a hair from your arm / body.

it's all the same.

Hair follicle drug testing?

The fact that you are getting hair folicle testing is leading me to think that you are either taking a government, scientific, legal or a psychological type position... Either way, public service...

The fact that you're asking this question... Is frightening to consider.

Please tell me that you're just curious?

Hair follicle drug testing?

bad news for you.....THC stays in hair follicles long time....up to 5 years, maybe longer, so you can try high times magazine, they are the only up to date source i know of on the subject but THC is a tough one....it's fat soluble and hair follicles can retrace your steps for up to 10 years :(

Hair follicle drug testing?

There is nothing you can do. It's going to be in there no matter what. Your hair is made from straight protein and there is no way to get the impurities out. Just let it grow and keep on cutting. Chemical rings will eventually grow out of your hair. Good luck!

Hair follicle drug testing?

Hahaha! Dude, you don't have a problem! Whats wrong with you? Are you a "guilty smoker"? Embrace the divine plant and don't be embarrassed about it. F*ck those hypocrites that judge you while they have no problem drinking alcohol.

Don't fall for the brainwashing the government lays down on the population. Celebrate the blossom and tell the brainwashed masses to fix the deadly alcohol problem before they judge you.

Go to Erowid or something for advice on detoxing....

Hair follicle drug testing?

Save your money. They do tests on hair follicles because its way more accurate than urine and is proof positive to show up any drugs you have taken. Drugs stay in hair follicles because hair is a living thing with cells in the root of a hair (follicle) and contains your DNA. No, you don't shave your head to avoid this. They will take a pubic hair sample, and if you shave there, they will know somethings going on. Oh, by the way, all this junk you're putting on your hair, will show up too. Have a good day.

Hair follicle drug testing?

I know people it has worked for and people it hasn't worked for. You can always try. As for it staying in your hair follicle for life, it doesn't. It grows out with your hair. It all depends on your own body chemistry and how fast your hair grows.

Hair follicle drug testing?

Sorry dude it's IN your hair, not ON it. A cut length of hair will show your drug use over time, as in cut little peices from scalp to end and calculate what you were doing and when. Try applying somewhere that does urine instead of hair testing... and yes they can test on any hair from anywhere. I was trained to do hair testing and had a franchise for doing it. It doesn't "stay in your follicle forever" it goes into the hair. If you were to shave your head and quit doing drugs, in a few months your new hair would have no trace, how much of new growth would have a trace, i don't recall, some but not much, I seem to recall about a month's worth, but it's been a few years since I was involved in this.

Hair follicle drug testing?

None of those things work. Sorry, you lose.

Does the McCujo method of passing a drug test work?

I'm referring to the McCujo method of duping a hair follicle drug test. Does this treatment coupled with using a special detox shampoo on the day of the test really work?

Yes, I already know that not using drugs is the surest way to pass a drug test, so Captain Obvious need not reply with an answer.

Does the McCujo method of passing a drug test work?

I doubt that you'll pass the test and you'll look awful frying your hair like that. Get any of the ingredients in your eye and you'll be in agony and your eyes will be redder than they ever got from pot. It'll probably irritate your skin so you look like a meth addict too. even if you pass the test, you'll look like such a druggie, they'll want a retest.

Does the McCujo method of passing a drug test work?

Nope.

Does the McCujo method of passing a drug test work?

don't use drugs

Does the McCujo method of passing a drug test work?

I'm not sure.

How many months does drug hair testing go back?

Hello, First of all I'm a Specialty Tech in a Toxicology lab

Second:

Drugs take at least 2 weeks before they show in the hair. A user must have used at least 3 or more perdominate times for it to be identified in the hair. So if you did one line/puff it won't be in your hair. each 1/2inch of hair represents 1 month of growth. Legally, w/out a court order labs are only able to test up to 1 1/2 inches (3 months) and any drugs used 6-9 months ago will show in your hair at about 2-4 inch length after the first 1 1/2 inch from the root. Your best bet is to keep getting hair trims. Don't shave your head entirely. Cause they will go to underarm, leg, arm, chest and in some cases pubic hair. these listed hairs go back in further... You can use these stripping shampoos bought at the head shops but they will only reduce the levels of drugs in your hair not eliminate them... best of luck

"They begin cutting from the ROOT of your hair not the top and are only able to collect 1 1/2 inches and should trim the lenght past that off".. If they do it any other way they are doing it WRONG and I would ask to speak to the supervisor on duty

How many months does drug hair testing go back?

Hair grows at 1/8-1/4" per week on average, so 1/2-1" per month. Length of hair sets months.

How many months does drug hair testing go back?

Hair drug testing

Hair testing is considered highly accurate and can go back normally 3 months (6 months or longer possible with specialist tests), showing any drugs of abuse used in the detection window. As hair grows out, any drugs used are encased in the hair shaft, so the longer the hair, the longer back in the individual's drug history the laboratory can detect. Accredited hair drug testing laboratories, however, only use hair within about 2.5閳? cm of the scalp, and discard the rest. With head hair each 0.5 inch (1.27 cm) corresponds to about 30 days. This limits the detection history to about 90 days, depending upon the rate at which the individual's hair grows. Some people attempt to circumvent this through shaving their heads. In the absence of the required amount of hair on the scalp, body hair can be used as an acceptable substitute.

Additionally, for pre-employment hair testing, the inability to obtain a sample may be grounds for not hiring the individual. Hair Testing labs are regulated by CLIA or SAMHSA (not FDA). There is a growing trend in major companies and law enforcement agencies to utilize hair analysis on account of its efficiency and reputation as the gold standard when considering test accuracy. This technology makes use of radioimmunoassay technology with subsequent confirmation by mass spectrometry.

In recent years, hair testing has been the subject of a number of law suits. Studies have shown that different ethnic groups have different hair structure, potentially leading to false-positives.

How many months does drug hair testing go back?

It usually goes back about 90 days, sometime up to 6 months though. But most tests just go back 90 days. Do you now that you are getting a hair follicle test? They are not really that common for pre-employment tests or anything like that. Most companies just use urine tests.

Drug Testing : Hair versus Urinalysis?

Need to test an employee. Which is better or more accurate? How far does each go back? Thank you.

Drug Testing : Hair versus Urinalysis?

urine drug testing is quicker and cheaper, and it will be easier to find a lab that does urine drug testing. however, it would only discover the drug metabolites that are still in the system -- basically marijuana is the longest lasting metabolite, because it is stored in the fat and slowly released.

hair testing is more epensive, but will detect drug use father back - depending upon how long the hair is....

why not collect BOTH? - send the urine in for testing, and keep the hair sample as back-up..
