A friend recently went for a drug screening where hair samples were taken to do the test.?

She has smoked marijuana about two months ago. Being that this test goes back to almost a year, how does an employer look at this being that the individual could have quit two months ago or say even six months ago? This does not mean they are a drug abuser.

If you work in an environment that goes to the cost and trouble of using hair analysis for drug test, you should have known better not to be messing around.



If you don't have to do a drug every day, then you dont have any excuse to do it at all.



A friend recently went for a drug screening where hair samples were taken to do the test.?

Some companies have gone to this method of testing due to people trying to cheat on their urine tests. It must be a company that highly restricts drug use. If detected - she will have to be honest with her employer. If they want to keep her on, they will probably require routine testing from now on. No matter how you feel about marijuana - it IS illegal.



A friend recently went for a drug screening where hair samples were taken to do the test.?

It means you're a smoker of weed, and they just want a drug free Work place.Go figure they probably drink Wine every night.It's just the good stuff that must be stopped!!!



I have seen much more damage come out of Alcohol in my life time.9 mo. for THC to get out of your hair.Best of Luck.

Drug testing for Magic Mushrooms??

Hi...i have a friend whose been bugging me to ask this question....somebody had givin her like a nickle size magic mushroom that she took but has never done it before. Now she just a got a call about a job and she knows they take a Strand of Hair Drug Test. Do you think they will detect that in a that drug test??? And she sometimes walk into a room where someone HAS been smoking weed...would that show up in that certain drug test???



Drug testing for Magic Mushrooms??

Magic mushrooms are not tested for in drug tests, period. And second hand smoke doesn't show up in quantities high enough to test positive for the drug. Your friend is fine.



Drug testing for Magic Mushrooms??

no you're cool

Any one had a false positve drug test?

any one had a failed hair test for amphetamines? tester say it cannt be wrong but it is.



Any one had a false positve drug test?

in 2002, 100 men got tested and 25% got a positve,



Any one had a false positve drug test?

amphetamine is a very specific test, there is no known substance that will cause a false positive.



Any one had a false positve drug test?

No, but I had a false negitive once.



Any one had a false positve drug test?

poppi seads can do that



Any one had a false positve drug test?

Any one had a false positve drug test?

Go to REHAB you druggie!



Any one had a false positve drug test?

NEVER HAVE. BUT YOUR HAIR PROVES EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING IN IT WILL NEVER GO AWAY UNTIL THE HAIR IS COMPLEATLY CUT OFF. IF I STOPPED SMOKING MARIJUANA TODAY.... IT WOULD STILL TEST POSITIVE FOR MARIJUANA PROBABLY 50 YEARS FROM NOW. ITS HAIR........... AND IT SUCKS.



Any one had a false positve drug test?

Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

I am talking about U.S. Steel, several thousand employees, they have already done the background screening, employment history, everything including the interview, they didnt say you will be hired they just gave me a paper and told me to go get the test, they do the hair test and the pee test, also how much do those test cost?



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

Pee test (in my area) is $35, hair follicle is $200.00.



It depends on your area, but those amounts are for an individual off the streets. Companies have contracts with the drug testing facilities and get a better price... but they are still too expensive to pay for just for every applicant. I would say it's a good sign if they're sending you.



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

no it depends on the results



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

The drug test costs money, I would not send you unless I am ready to offer you the job. If the company is insanely huge, or it was a federal government agency, then they can afford to send all of their "short list" to take the drug tests.



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

Nope, it just means they are taking you seriously. But by no means is the job sealed up.



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

yes in fla it usually does unless of course the test comes back positive then you most defintely do not have the job.



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

Yes you have the job providing you pass all the requirements. They don't go that far as a drug test if they don't want you. Study for you test.



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

As long as you are clean, then yes you probably have the jobé–³?br>Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?



These tests are not cheap so if they are sending you to take them I would guess they've decided to hire you and will as long as you pass the drug screen...



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

yes as a guess



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

If you pass the test



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

I would think it meant you are definetly in the running for the position. Good Luck, I hope you get the job !!!!



I'm not sure what the cost is...sorry.



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

usually in big companies they require a drug test. it doesnt mean you will get the job, they will still look at the results and compare you with other potential employees.



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

pee test about $45 the hair is about $300 they can tell for about 4 months back its more likely you have the job good luck



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

you most likely have it u just need to pass the TEST! good luck



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

I would not count on it, but it means they are looking seriously at you...I would not suspect that they are just nosey.....they will not spend money or time needlessly.......



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

I don't know how much they cost, but I know it's expensive. But, since company is investing the money on the test, then you should get the job as long as the results are okay.



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

I would say u have the job if it comes back negative. They would'nt spend the money on the test if they weren't inerested in hiring you. GOOD LUCK!



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

I believe that it means that they are seriously considering you.



Does a company sending you to take a drug test usually mean you have the job?

98% of the time is yes

Can you fail a drug test for over the counter sinus and allergie meds?

My cousin failed his hair test for amphedamines, claiming it must be the sinus and allergie meds he takes. These are regular over the counter meds, is this possible or is he BSing everyone?



Can you fail a drug test for over the counter sinus and allergie meds?

He's full of crap. He got tested for amphetamines and they got him.



Can you fail a drug test for over the counter sinus and allergie meds?

Yes



Can you fail a drug test for over the counter sinus and allergie meds?

He is most likely telling the truth. He should have told the tester of any allergy medications that he was taking. I had a friend that ate a bagel every



morning for breakfast with cream cheese. She



ate one with sesame seeds the day that she was tested for her promotion. It almost cost her her job! Thank goodness we had all eaten together



in a diner that morning!



Can you fail a drug test for over the counter sinus and allergie meds?

It's highly unlikely.



OTC's that include pseudoephedrine were pulled from the shelves a few years ago. Pseudoephedrine causes a number of physiological functions to increase in rate, including raising blood pressure. That can be dangerous to those with HBP to begin with, but it can be dangerous to a lot of other people as well. It does that because it's a derivative of ephedra, which is also known a ma huang, and is a type of amphetamine.



Your cousin needs help.

My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

This was 3-4 weeks ago. They will be doing a hair test. Will this show up? Any help is appreciated.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

should be ok.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

She'll be fine. Codeine leaves your system in 8 days.



Oh...I just noticed the hair strand part. Uhm, not good. Most companies don't do these as they are more expensive and have been proven to test falsely positive, opening them up to lawsuits. However, in this case...I don't see as she has much to stand on. Sucks to be she. The only thing you can try and do is get a prescription written for her for the time period in question making the codeine legit.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

I think the test will come out fine, unless she took something illegal.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

No. That's not going to show up or be any sort of problem.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

Are you sure it was an accident? Maybe it was a cover-up stunt, to buy her enough time to get the drug out of her system. How well do you know her, really?



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

I highly doubt it will be detected.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

she will be fine on her drug test. it will not show up especially since she took only one or two. she has nothing to worry about.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

Anything that you take into your body, especially drugs will show up on your hair strand. It will be further down her hair strand because it was a month ago when she digested it, but will still be there, things you take into your body just dont go away, unless she were to shave her head.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

no it's not going to show up it' pain medication



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

They are probably looking for something a little more substantial. IF she has a addiction problem my advice is to not have any drugs or alcohol in the house. If it is for a job or something though she will be fine.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

Hair testing is fairly sensitive and can detect drugs long after use. One of the reasons that a lot of testing labs are going over to this test, despite the higher expense is that it allows detection over a much wider window, often 90 days or more.



Most likely she will be tested by the standard NIDA5 test, which is designed to pick up opiates (of which codeine is one).



Despite my bewilderment about how one "accidentally" takes a tylenol 3 with codeine, if she doesn't have a pattern of use, the total amount in her hair will be low, and she may be able to argue her case that it was a one-time thing, presumably for a legitimate reason.



I've taken codeine for pain, when I knew what I was doing and don't see anything wrong with the practice.



She may want to consider advising the testing lab before the test, so they can note that they expect to see this on the test and confirm that it is a low level, single use event.



The positive result that she might receive just indicates "opiate" and doesn't specify in more detail, so a confirmatory test will be run. If it comes up positive for codeine/morphine but not heroin, her admission would at least be corroborated.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

Wow. What kind of unamerican corrupt company requires hair drug testing(basically a DNA test)? This is way to intrusive and its a shame its legal. Yes they will see the codeine being hair tests can go back years and these tests are very accurate and detailed. It should not hurt her chances for the position but who would want to work for a company who invades a persons privacy to such an extreme. I do tower construction now but wanted to get into the railroad a few years back and they did the same thing, I told them to fuc*off and went back to my previous employer who does a basic drug test and a routine physical. Never would I work for someone who wants this much info. Whats next? Reading our past thoughts? Way too much information we are giving away, very sad.



My wife has a drug test soon. She accidently took one of my Tylenol 3 w/codeine.?

Tylenol 3 with codeine is an opiate which can be detected through hair testing up to 90 days after it's taken. Good luck.

How to get a drug test?

My ex wife is a opiate addict, and has relapsed big time. had one child age twelve severly hurt, worried stiff. wrote to the GAL from our divorce says he is out unless ordrered by the court to rejoin (very expensive),or he said notify social services and that they could investigate......i want a hair test done, i dealt with social in the past, they did squat, any ideas?



How to get a drug test?

Call your local doctor and they may be able to send it away for testing. Depending on how long her hair is, you will find the drug in the hair from the day it sprouted out of her head.



How to get a drug test?

call the non emergancy number for your police station- that way you get a report, not social services. use that report as leverage to get a court order. but if a minor was hurt, dont they do anything?

Does BMW do a hair test?

my friend is going to get drug tested to work at BMW he only smokes weed occasionaly. what test do they do?



Does BMW do a hair test?

Almost all employers do a pee test.



Does BMW do a hair test?

he should stop smoking



Does BMW do a hair test?

standard drug test - pee in a cup, breathalyser. he'll get caught.



Does BMW do a hair test?

he should get off drugs. the work environment in a place like that is dangerous so he should be 100% fit physically and mentally. he could harm himself and harm some co workers..



if he wants to keep on smoking weed, he might want to work in Starbucks or Subway.... no special skills needed there



Does BMW do a hair test?

Go to a wig maker. Ask for a natural hair wig.



If it is detected, he should say "I hope you don't discriminate against guys who lose their hair at my age" or "I had lead poisoning which caused my hair to fall out."

I have to take a unexpected drug test in a couple days, whats the best way to clean my system of THC

Its not a hair test its a urine test so i know there is a way i can pass. I smoked a lot of pot previous to hearing about this test. I just need something that will mask it 100%, or pretty damn close.

if you can find a good head shop you could buy synthetic urine. yes they do sell that. you could always get someone else to urinate in a rubber glove, stash it under your testicles to keep it body temp. take a pin with you poke a hole in glove whola you are urinating.

Urine Luck



http://www.urineluck.com/



if you have time to buy it that way, if not you will more than likely find that as well as a whole slew of other products at your local head shop / smoke shop. Be sure to purchase the test strips too so after you de-tox you can test yourself to make sure its working. i did it - worked great.

I have to take a unexpected drug test in a couple days, whats the best way to clean my system of THC ?

Man y are you smoking that in the first place...anyways get someone clean to pee in a small bottle for you. Do anything that you can do to hide it and when you go in to pee, use the bottle. If someone has to watch you do it than sorry man, you're out of luck.

i learned about this today in summer school health class...



THC is the active ingredient in marijuana.. it stays in your blood for about 30 days...



it stays in ur urine for at least 2 weeks....



ur screwed



I have to take a unexpected drug test in a couple days, whats the best way to clean my system of THC ?

Some of the products work, although it can be risky, and you need to know what time the urine sample will be taken. You could try eaten as much fatty foods as you can for one day, as THC is absorbed by fat cat cells. The second fast and drink as much water and cranberry juice as you can, to flush out the fat cells full of THC. I have used that teqnique once, and it worked for me. I do not know how reliable it is, but I still have a job! Also, do not try niacine! It is very uncomforatble and you do not have time for it to work. If you can, used mulitple methods to lower your chances of failing, such as having a bottle of clean pee hidden in case they do not watch you.



I have to take a unexpected drug test in a couple days, whats the best way to clean my system of THC ?

If you have a local hemp shop in the city, they have piss test kits which clean your system out completely. They cost $60-$100 but well worth the money if you want the job done right. If you cannot get one of these kits I have heard of cranberry juice and lots of it will clense your system. Also try sweating a lot, maybe go for a bike ride or run and try to sweat a lot. Drink a lot of water and try to urinate as much as possible. The more you drain your body of fluids the better.



I have to take a unexpected drug test in a couple days, whats the best way to clean my system of THC ?

You don't have a chance.



"THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) can stay in a person's body for as long as 3 to 90 days after smoking or being ingested orally."

I hate to say this but "street markets". Go to a drug dealer and ask them. I say this because my sister had to in order to pass her test!



I have to take a unexpected drug test in a couple days, whats the best way to clean my system of THC ?

Believe it or not beer. Also drink lots and lots of water so that you will piss it out. The day before you take the test drink a half gallon of orange juice or cranberry juice, cranberry juice is the best but most do not like the taste.

Many are now giving hair tests because they cant be faked or tampered with....On a side note the testing of urine and blood usually includes a screen for the "detoxifiers" that are sold to pass drug test. That will also mean a failing test.

Will I pass this drug test?

I had to get a hair test for a job and it has been over 5 months since I smoked. I have only smoked weed twice in my life and this time I only took 2 hits. I don't even think I got a buzz off of it. So when I went in the nurse told me it would go back 3 months. BUT I didn't know that was for the hair on the head. She took hair from my leg. I read that body hair can be traced back by almost a year. So I feel like I got screwed.



Can anyone with a personal experience answer this?



Will I pass this drug test?

it all depends on the levels of THC in your hair follicles. since it was 5 months ago, and only a few hits, you should be fine. they allow for very low levels. Good Luck, i think your OK.



Will I pass this drug test?

your screwed



Will I pass this drug test?

if you only have smoked twice in your life you should be fine plus it was five months ago

Anyone know what kinda drug test IDOT (illinois dept of transportation) does?

im clean now for 3 weeks from pot but if they do a hair test or something it'll still show up. does anyone know if its a blood, hair, urine test? im going to trucking school so i dont think they would mess around with a simple urnine test PLEASE dont answer if you dont know



Anyone know what kinda drug test IDOT (illinois dept of transportation) does?

don't worry about it ...if you are doing drugs nobody wants you driving a truck. here, sherman texas, a truckdriver on drugs killed 10 people in an instant. cause he noded off while driving. get a job where you can't kill people with you potheaded thinking.if you wanna kill yourself, fine. but my loved ones have gotta travel too and i want them far away from you. ...i'm sure others would love to help you "beat the test" ...maybe youl'll hit their family



Anyone know what kinda drug test IDOT (illinois dept of transportation) does?

A DOT physical is pretty standard across the country. It's usually just a urine sample, but as a professional driver, you'll be subject to random testing at any time while you're working. If you get busted while driving, the penalties can be quite severe!



Anyone know what kinda drug test IDOT (illinois dept of transportation) does?

If you've only been pot-free for three weeks, you're almost certain to get a positive test no matter what the method used.



THC is fat soluble and if you are a regular user a positive test can still result between 6 %26amp; 8 weeks after the last use. The difference is based mostly on the level that is used to determine a positive test result. The levels used by the military's random urinalysis program will result in a positive result as long as 12 weeks after last use for a moderate to heavy user.



Both blood and urine tests are used. The choice is usually up to the official running the test although the results will be the same either way. For cost considerations, urinalysis is the most common method.



Inspection testing requires that the sample gathering process be witnessed; the testing official must view the stream of urine from the urethral opening into the specimin cup. Another testing official will measure and record the temperature of the sample immediately after it is gathered. These procedures are used to prevent alteration of the sample or submission of someone else's urine.



If you get a positive test, you have the right to have the sample tested by a certified testing laboratory of your choice at your expense. The lowest test reading will be used.



Hair testing is rarely used for random testing but may be used after a serious accident.



As a professional driver, you are subject to random testing both by your employer and by police and DOT officials at any time. Refusals will result in immediate suspension of your CDL and termination of employment.

Some businesses demand applicants for employment submit to drug tests. Why would an anal test be req

How many drug tests at one time should anyone have to take to satisfy any employer's drug free policy for employment. Isn't a blood test, urine test, and hair sample enough to prove your body is drug free? Why would an anal exam be required also? When is enough, enough? Isn't a drug test requirement a violation of our civil rights?



Some businesses demand applicants for employment submit to drug tests. Why would an anal test be required?

A drug test isn't a violation of your civil rights because no one is forcing you to submit to it. If you don't want to submit to the drug test, then don't apply for work at companies that request them.



Some businesses demand applicants for employment submit to drug tests. Why would an anal test be required?

Because you are a piece of meat in the big wheel of payroll.



Some businesses demand applicants for employment submit to drug tests. Why would an anal test be required?

pne would think..... i'm gonna just guess thats part of a routine physical that needed to be passed for employment that which that aspect your uncomfortable with ...... and not really...... they don't have to hire you........ they can refuse employment to you if you refuse or fail a drug test

Recently subjected to a fingernail drug test..positive for thc. Have been sober >10 mo.?

Involved in a custody issue: ex is adamant , so is testing lab test is MOST accurate. I have passed 2 random UA's (July and Aug, '05) and two hair follicle tests, Feb Dec '05 and Feb '06.I have worked hard to restore my life and have no idea why this test was positive. Repeated a hair test today and will repeat the nail, but am concerned about another false positive. Any ideas about ingestion or use of something that may have affected the testing. Please help!



Recently subjected to a fingernail drug test..positive for thc. Have been sober %26gt;10 mo.?

Congratulations on being sober for 10 months. It's really difficult to change your life and takes a lot of courage and discipline.



I think that the answer given by Bauercvhs is pretty right on. From what I've read, the standard fingernail test will evaluate use from 3-6 months past (i.e., not what's going on now). The tip of your fingernail is the oldest section. The newest part of your fingernail is near the cuticle. Assuming the test was taken from the tip of your fingernail, and if your nails are longer or grow slowly, it's possible this test reflects the THC in your system from several months ago.



As Bauercvhs suggested, for your follow-up test, if the sample will be taken from the fingernail tip, be sure your nails are clipped close. If the sample is a scraping, perhaps they can take it from the cuticle or close to the cuticle.



If you're being tested regularly as part of the custody case, you should familiarize yourself with the tests. If you have an attorney and can afford an expert to refute the testing method, that would be ideal. It really depends on what they're testing for -- recent use or previous use.



For recent use, the fingernail test is probably inappropriate. See the link in Resource(s), below. It's a PDF file and you'll need the free Acrobat Reader software to read the file. If you don't have the Acrobat Reader, you can download it from www.adobe.com.



I couldn't find any information about false positives being caused by food, drink, or other ingested items. It could be lab contamination -- even reputable labs can miss on minute contamination. Is it possible to get a statement from the lab on their standard contamination levels for THC? How do they eliminate for cross-contamination of samples? The test result was positive but was it a strong or weak positive?



It could be slow metabolising of THC. Note that THC metabolises very slowly and can take 25-30 days to be clear. So if you stopped 10 months ago, THC may still have existed in your system 9 months ago. Theoretically, you should not be testing positive at this point, but it's possible.



Good luck with your next tests and best wishes for turning your life around and staying clean.



Recently subjected to a fingernail drug test..positive for thc. Have been sober %26gt;10 mo.?

Maybe you got high but was so wasted you forgot... or you should just make sure not to hang with the wrong people where there could be leftover substance



Recently subjected to a fingernail drug test..positive for thc. Have been sober %26gt;10 mo.?

Could she be setting you up. Think about how easy it could be.



Recently subjected to a fingernail drug test..positive for thc. Have been sober %26gt;10 mo.?

Wow, that sucks. Great job staying sober. It's not easy, but when kids are on the line it changes everything.



According to Wikipedia:



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nail_%28ana...



"Nails grow at an average rate of 0.1 mm/day (1 cm every 100 days) [1]. Fingernails require 3 to 6 months to regrow completely. Toenails require 12 to 18 months. actual growth rate is dependent upon age, season, exercise level, and hereditary factors."



So are they taking toenails or fingernails?



Are they clipping off the ends or scraping the surface?



-If they clipping off the ends I would suggest clipping them back as far as possible before the test.



I would be skeptical about a false positive on the marijuana test. Any chance you live with pot smokers? Do you have traces under your fingernails?



Recently subjected to a fingernail drug test..positive for thc. Have been sober %26gt;10 mo.?

It could be something you ate or drank. A burger from McDonald's with poppy seeds will test positive for marijuana. So will some aspirin products. Cough medicines contain alcohol. Good luck on staying sober..........

I Need some advice, DOCTOR'S or MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS ONLY PLEASE!!!!! How to understand oral f

A coworker was called to give an oral fluid sample at work as a "random" drug test. They claim it was random, but the company had been trying to terminate the employee after they had missed work for (Dr.'s documented/required) illness. The employee gave the sample in the HR manager's office. 13 DAYS later they were notified that they tested pos. for methamphetamine(40ngs)amphetamines(negat... and 4 other drugs with smaller than cutoff level amounts showing, but negative on those drugs also. No chain of custody was given for this sample, and no explanation for the length of time it took. The results have no name of any MRO anywhere on the page, (nor any other info on who conducted/handled this test) The employee requested the sample be retested, at the time of dismissal, by way of union grievance, (which was ignored) The grievance also inquired whether the company would accept a hair follicle test as reliable, (also ignored) Is it possible this person truly does not use drugs?

Not likely that he doesn't use drugs. That test is pretty sensitive and employers usually use cheaper tests. They must have really wanted to prove thier point or they were concerned about a u/a for some reason (like he had a history of tampering).

Drug test questions?

OK. i am hoping from an answer from someone who actually works in some type of lab.....



first off, i have gone a year on probation, smoking 3 weeks out of 4 and still passed every test. all i did was take a napkin and get some bleach on it, then drop about 7 drops into a gallon jug of water. i drink that over the span of a day or so. if i felt like i needed more, i would do it again the next day. also, make sure to you 2 or 3 pisses out before going to the test. the first of the day are the dirtiest.



now to my questions.... working for UPS or fedex, should i expect a hair test, urine test or a mouth swab test?



what type of test do you see fail most often?



Drug test questions?

Most companies, when contracting to do drug testing order their tests in bulk. Price, obviously comes into play, because well.. everyone is cheap. So anyways although we have the capabilities to run a hair test fairly easily the chemicals involved are rather expensive compared to a urine analysis and thus not a normal method for a business to seek. A mouth swab test is not completely accurate, depending on what lab. There are no large companies that i know of that have periodic mouth swab tests.



As far as accuracy.. The results must be definitive for them to be reported as positive. So urine tests are actually semi unrealiable, that's why we require 30-45 ml at least. So that we can run up to 3 tests on them. And.. you are only reported as positive if you are over a certain limit, due to some natural occuring triggers in organic food. or if there has been a pattern of traces.



So, as far as a recommendation.. Don't smoke, but if you have too.. eat alot of food the day before.. It absorbs alot of THC and then commence drinking alot of beer.. a sample with a concentration over a certain limit will null the sample... lol.. but then again you'll pretty much have to be intoxicated when you donate. Or you can drink a ton of water untill your urine looks clear as day...



Hope that helps.



Drug test questions?

First off, stop drinking bleach....this will surely kill whatever brain cells remain after smoking your stash....



Second, Piss tests are used most commonly because it is a waste product of your body....Hair and mouth swab tests are considered more intrusive and most companies will not touch the DNA dispute..



Third, I believe both companies have a random drug test policy.



Fourth, if you get hired, you have to promise not to smoke before work....I ship a lot of stuff and would hate to know that your smoking contributed to it!

What kind of drug test should ex-husband have to take ?

I am divorced in Michigan. My ex husband has been ordered to take a urine drug test to see our daughter. He is a crack addict and said that he can pass a urine test three days after he smokes. Is it possible to push the courts for a hair folical test? Does anyone have any experience with this?



What kind of drug test should ex-husband have to take ?

I would be happy to answer all your questions. Yes, it is possible for your Ex Husband to pass a urine drug test in three days. Their are drinks that you can buy online or GNC that will flush out the drugs in only a few hours. My friend new six people that worked together that had to take a random drug test, so they all went to GNC to buy a drink, and five out of the six passed the test. Their are detox drinks that allow you to pee clean for up to six hours and then their are detox kits that you can take, and you can clean your whole body within 3 to 7 days and stay clean until they smoke up again. I think its possible to push the courts for a hair folical test, but you probably need a good lawyer, otherwise you will get no where with the courts. Believe it or not, the hair folical test can actually be beat. Somebody at my work had to take a hair folical test to get custody of her kids. She went to a site called http://www.ipassedmydrugtest.com/, talked to the person live, and told her that she needed the special shampoo, and she managed to pass the test. She smoked pot like every day and still does, but she passed with the shampoo that she bought from them. They have detox solutions for urine, blood, saliva, and the hair folical test. More then likely he won't know about the special shampoos, because most people don't. Good luck to you.



What kind of drug test should ex-husband have to take ?

You picked a real loser to be your kid's dad.



What kind of drug test should ex-husband have to take ?

Bring him on Jerry Springer. Jerry always has the answer for people like you!



What kind of drug test should ex-husband have to take ?

I wouldn't allow him to see her until he can prove he's COMPLETELY clean and sober. That is a huge chance you are taking with your daughter's life. People using, will do anything for their next high...even sell their children.

Drug testing using a strand of hair?

this guy my mom is seeing doesnt smoke weed, but she does.



he got fired from his job %26amp; tried to say that its because he was in the room with her a few times when she smoked.



they tested his hair. i personally dont think it would be possible to test positive just from being around it.



what do u think?? do they test the root of the hair? does anyone know anything about this technique?



THANKS!



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

They test the hair in sections (chop it up). From the distance from the root they can work out when the person last had the drug and how long they used it for. I dont know if the test is senstive enough to pick up second hand smoke.



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

They test the hair folical- uh - not from her second hand smoke - but him doing his own smoking. Good Luck



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

If he's inhaling the smoke from her pot, it could feasibly get into his system. The hair and the vitreous of the eye (the thick liquid in the eye that gives it its shape) are the last two places that toxins can show up for testing.



Or...he may have 'just tried' one of her joints one time and got caught.



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

He's a big, fat liar. No, it is impossible for his hair to have tested positive from second hand smoke. Ridiculous. He smoked himself and it will test positive by hair test for 3-6 months.



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

It actually is possible. The hair follicle test tests for the residue evidence of the marijuana.



I personally think it's a good idea. My mother always said you are the company you keep. Employers don't care if it's you or your grandma that smokes pot. You are both one in the same to them.



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

actually yes he could if he is around it enough just like 2nd hand smoke.



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

It is ABSOLUTELY possible to test positive when you are only "around" someone who smokes weed, i.e. pot.



Now, they can use your hair and they do take it from the root and looking at your hair can tell how long ago and how long the exposure, not only to pot but any drug or medication.



You hair is like a tree trunk, as your hair grows whatever medications or drugs were in your body at the time of your hair growth is brought out through your hair strand. NOTHING can make this disappear out of your hair except for completely shaving your hair and stop the medication or drug exposure.



Depending on what type of job your moms boyfriend had could have fired him not just because of exposure but because of associating with someone who does illegal drugs.



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

He was smoking the weed.



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

yeah, if they really wanna drug test you they will take your hair...



he can superceed this by taking a urine test to prove he did not smoke it or ablood test



Drug testing using a strand of hair?

OK - straight out. If you mom sealed him in a plastic bag and blew her smoke in for a couple weeks, he could possibly get enough pot in him before he was asphyxiated from lack of oxygen. YES _ HE SMOKED and nothing he claims will change that. Oh - in the plastic bag he died in less than 5 minutes so he couldn't inhale and did not need the drug test.

Will dying your hair affect the test results of a hair folicle test?

Will be testing my step-daughters mother in court case. She dyes her hair, will this affect her test results. Since shes already reviewed the court papers she will be thinking we may drug test. We know there are ways to hide that in your urine, so we are going to do a hair folicle. Any info will help out!



Will dying your hair affect the test results of a hair folicle test?

no dying the hair will not hide the use of drugs, because the results are in the roots of the hair which is inbedded inthe scalp, hair dye will not affect the roots of the hair.



Will dying your hair affect the test results of a hair folicle test?

Nope. The tests will show all the chemicals she has put on her hair and in her body.



Will dying your hair affect the test results of a hair folicle test?

She's so cool



She's nobody's fool



She knows just how things should be



Will dying your hair affect the test results of a hair folicle test?

no it will not, Your hair is dead cells, the chemicals that are imbedded in your cells will be there regardless of their color.



Will dying your hair affect the test results of a hair folicle test?

No, because they look at the root of the hair, thats where the drug residue is stored.

Type of pre-employment drug test for Riverside and LA county Sheriffs?

Has anyone taken a pre employment drug test for these departments recently? If so what type of drug test do they adminster while doing your medical. My understanding was they give you a blood test and I was wondering if there was anyway to request a urine test or hair follicle test if that was the case.



Type of pre-employment drug test for Riverside and LA county Sheriffs?

No there isn't as part of the physical blood is needed to rule out several other diseases like diabetes, hepatitis, AIDS, TB and things like high cholesterol. If they accidentally hire you with one of these issues the State then buys your pension and they don't like getting stuck with the bill.



Type of pre-employment drug test for Riverside and LA county Sheriffs?

Your question is two hours old and there are no answers. This is almost unheard of around here because people normally come out of the woodwork to answer questions they have no business answering anyway.



For this question, I may be one of those people.



Just the same, my answer is to call those agencies and ask. Someone here might know what kind of test these places use, but might not know if they'll let you submit to a different test. And someone else might just outright lie to you just for the kicks of doing it. And the only answer you should be accepting anyway is the answer from the people who are doing the testing, because they're the ones who actually matter.

How do the courts in Florida view a failed court ordered drug test in a child custody matter?

this is in clay county florida and the magistrate has placed the child in the home on the father pending a child custody evaluation. the magistrate also ordered a drug test for both parties, mother and father. the father ( where the child is residing until final hearing) has failed his drug test with marijuana in his system. the test was a hair strand test. the mother past her test. WHILE I KNOW THAT THE FAILED TEST CANNOT LOOK GOOD TO THE JUDGE HOW BAD DOES IT REALLY LOOK? THE CHILD IS 16 MONTHS OLD.



How do the courts in Florida view a failed court ordered drug test in a child custody matter?

The judge should reverse his original order and award the mother custody based on the evidence unless there are other unsaid circumstances prevailing in this case.



How do the courts in Florida view a failed court ordered drug test in a child custody matter?

you have to remember that the courts are going to decide which parnet is going to be the best parent for the child. A dad who did or does drugs is not that high on the good parent list. Im sure though, they will look at the next thing where they try to decide who is going to be able to support the child better. Its all up to the best well being of the child.



How do the courts in Florida view a failed court ordered drug test in a child custody matter?

I wish I could answer more specifically for you. But it depends on WHY the child was taken. If the child was being abused, it is going to look bad legally, yes. Neglect, the same way. The drug will then become a major factor in the states' case. Rehab (expecially if started BEFORE they make it a court order) is the best thing to do, unfortunately.



But if it comes down to mom or dad and dad is doing drugs, the child will go to mom.

I don't do drugs but I came up positive for THC in a urine test then fired,a hair test came up

I had a safety sensitive job,I got tested for drugs frequently,5 times a month,by the Human Resourses Department as did my co-workers,for a year. I had a urine analysis test come up positive for THC,I think the collection process was screwed up!could that happen? I don't do drugs and I don't drink,after I was released from the company I had my own U/A test done and spent 100 bucks on a hair strand test...both those came up negative for any substances...I have a meeting with Human Resources tomorrow to see if they will consider rehireing me...Has anybody heard of something like this before? What is the best way to present my case?I want my job back!Its good money and satisfying work...K



I don't do drugs but I came up positive for THC in a urine test then fired,a hair test came up neg,what now?

Have you taken any prescribed pain killers that would contain:



Synthetic THC, also known under the substance name dronabinol, is available as a prescription drug (under the trade name Marinol) in several countries including the USA, The Netherlands, and Germany. In the United States, Marinol is a Schedule III drug, available by prescription, considered to be non-narcotic and to have a low risk of physical or mental dependence. An analog of dronabinol, nabilone, is classified as a Schedule II controlled substance; it is available commercially in the US under the trade name Cesamet, manufactured by Lilly. Efforts to get cannabis rescheduled as analogous to Marinol have not succeeded thus far. As a result of the rescheduling of Marinol from Schedule II to Schedule III, refills are now permitted for this substance. Marinol has been approved by the FDA in the treatment of anorexia of AIDS patients, as well as for refractory nausea and vomiting of patients undergoing chemotherapy.



In April 2005, Canadian authorities approved the marketing of Sativex, a mouth spray for multiple sclerosis to alleviate pain. Sativex contains tetrahydrocannabinol together with cannabidiol. It is marketed in Canada by GW Pharmaceuticals, being the first cannabis-based prescription drug in the world.



Or, could you have been in the presence of the drug and picked up something second hand without realizing? This would not show up in the hair test (I wouldn't think) because it would be a short time thing.



Good Luck - I hope you get your job back!



I don't do drugs but I came up positive for THC in a urine test then fired,a hair test came up neg,what now?

talk about "false positives" re: the urine test. It could very well be possible. Also, there could've been a screwup w/the folks who processed your UA. (the ol' human error thing). Lastly, present your hair strand test and UA test. If you ultimately are fired, then look into consulting a lawyer!



I don't do drugs but I came up positive for THC in a urine test then fired,a hair test came up neg,what now?

You have an excellent chance of getting your job back with the documentation you have. You should also ask if the test was a "confirmed positive" result...which means it was run again on the same sample and reviewed by a physician. Also, thoroughly review your company's drug testing policy. Sometimes they allow for a retest, which you should be offered.

How much contact with marijuana will cause a false positive on a drug test?

My employer does random hair and urine testing for drugs. I stopped smoking marijuana over a year and three months ago, because my career is more important to me than an altered state of mind. My situation is that my little brother came over last weekend and had some pot to smoke. He just started smoking and asked me to roll for him since he is new at the whole deal. I did and then he smoked it in the garage at about a 15 ft. distance from me. The whole time I could smell it. I'm wondering if being close enough to smell it could cause a positive on a drug test in either hair or urine. Also, the same goes for rolling. Somebody told me yesterday that the THC oils will get into your skin from handling even a small amount and can cause a fail on a drug test. Is there any truth to that? Thanks in advance for the help.



How much contact with marijuana will cause a false positive on a drug test?

no mate i don't think you got much to worry about.. the only way THC can get in the blood stream is if you eat it or smoke it.. I don't think you would have enough in your blood for it to show up in a test.. No worries mate if you think your fukd get high.



How much contact with marijuana will cause a false positive on a drug test?

I think so. Just try and keep a low profile at work the drugs trace you should just pee it out in the next few weeks.



How much contact with marijuana will cause a false positive on a drug test?

How much contact with marijuana will cause a false positive on a drug test?

If you didnt smoke it , Dont worry. 2nd hand smoke will not show up on a Drug test !



How much contact with marijuana will cause a false positive on a drug test?

If you didn't take a hit on his doobies, don't worry about it. However, let your bro roll his own joints. Stay away from it if you want to stay clean. As well, there are some inexpensive drug detection kits available on the market that do saliva testing. Get 3-4 of them. Swab your cheeks, and get the test applicator juicy with your spit. These tests are very accurate. They will tell you if you have anything to worry about.

Hair testing?

is it true for hair drug testing , if you drink alot of grape juice itll get it out of your hair?



Hair testing?

my boyfriend tried the aloe rid, another internet bought shampoo product that claimed to fool the hair follicle test (this one even came w/ a money back guarantee, which he was later refunded), drinking 'tonics' and taking pills that are supposed to purify your system, shaving his head,...nothing worked for him. good luck to you. they say you should wash your hair no longer that one hour before the test is to take place.



Hair testing?

Never heard of this but I can tell u what does work...........someone I know used this last week

When you go for a drug test for work, do they do a UA or do they use your hair?

I was wondering what the answer to this is. I am looking for a job, but dont want anyone knowing i have smoked.



When you go for a drug test for work, do they do a UA or do they use your hair?

I am a manager in a consultant company and two of my consultants had to get a background check and a UA for a fortune 500 company. They did not get hair samples taken. Not sure if this is the standard.



When you go for a drug test for work, do they do a UA or do they use your hair?

Usually they do a urine test. Hair is much more expensive so most employers don't do that.



When you go for a drug test for work, do they do a UA or do they use your hair?

it could be one or the other. it is what the job people wants to do to you.



When you go for a drug test for work, do they do a UA or do they use your hair?

As far as I know most places just do a UA I have heard of some though that test the blood too.



When you go for a drug test for work, do they do a UA or do they use your hair?

They mostly do urine. Well, as a forced former smoker, all I have to say is that you have to quit if you want to work.



When you go for a drug test for work, do they do a UA or do they use your hair?

Ua

Will a hair follicle test for drugs test the same over and over even if your clean?

i don't understand the question.



if you're clean, a hair follicle drug test will always be negative. and if you've done any of the drugs they're testing for in the previous year (I believe that's right for hair tests), they'll see it.



Will a hair follicle test for drugs test the same over and over even if your clean?

Yep.



Will a hair follicle test for drugs test the same over and over even if your clean?

What type of drug test are you required to take when taking a police officer exam? urine or hair?

Urine.



What type of drug test are you required to take when taking a police officer exam? urine or hair?

Unless you were actually charged and have a crimminal record for drugs most cops don't really care if you smoked some weed as a teen. They're more concerned if you're doing it now.



Urine tests.



What type of drug test are you required to take when taking a police officer exam? urine or hair?

It depends on the agency to which you're applying. When I applied to various Southern California agencies, I took urinalysis.



Advice: if you're really concerned about which test, you might want to lay off whatever it is you're "doing". Police officers need to be straight and sober and you need to project that reputation. Doing illegal drugs (even in your off-hours) would make you a hypocrite, wouldn't it?



What type of drug test are you required to take when taking a police officer exam? urine or hair?

Urine.

Just what the world needs....another piece of **** cop...i hope you get caught. and believe...i could care less if you take drugs. but trying to be a cop tooooo!!!!!!give me a break

Take a NAIR bath.



How to pass a hair test for drugs? and in a court of law how binding is the test if failed?

Unless a very long time has passed since the last time you used anything narcotic, the hair test is the best and most reliable test there is. Residual stays in the hair longer than any other part of the body and it is an accepted method that is used in court, and if you failed, post bail.



How to pass a hair test for drugs? and in a court of law how binding is the test if failed?

I understand that drinking bleach mixed with Draino will solve the problem.



How to pass a hair test for drugs? and in a court of law how binding is the test if failed?

Yep, the only methods of passing a hair test are:



Don't do the drugs, and



Shave your head.



If this is (presumably) for work, it isn't a court of law issue. You will have signed an agreement to undergo testing when you started work, and if you read it, you'll see that a failed test = unemployment.



Hair tests performed correctly are very strong evidence in court, if you were there for some reason. You'd have to have some reliable evidence to the contrary.



How to pass a hair test for drugs? and in a court of law how binding is the test if failed?

Well if you have alopecia you are in luck!



However the only way to pass a hair test is to not do drugs.



I assure you there is no way to rid you body completely of hair. They will find a hair to test. It could be the smallest most insignificant hair, like an eyelash. They can and will test it.

Is there anything you can take or use to permanently eleminate drug use history for a hair follicle

outside of shaving all of the hair off your head and then praying to god that they don't ask questions.... then no!! and depending on why you need to pass this test, they have several tests(outside of hair folicle) that can go as far back as seven years. I used to do security clearance screenings for the Military and I can tell you that they have some pretty amazing stuff.



Is there anything you can take or use to permanently eleminate drug use history for a hair follicle test?

no. drinking water will result in a diluted specimen and after two diluted specimens you will not be hired.

yes it is..they are checking for drugs..and that is a good thing.

yes, if you signed on your employment app to submit to any form of drug testing to be administered. i'm sure you did or they wouldn't have already gotten as far as they have.

I don't know but it should be! I'm so tired of working with these stoned zombies who I have to pick up their slack plus risk injury cause they have no clue what planet they are on!! If you work full time where I do you get a drug test but for our seasonals they don't and there in lies the problem.

Can a pre-employment requirement be a hair sample for drug testing?

yuppi.



Can a pre-employment requirement be a hair sample for drug testing?

Yep, it is to weed out the losers who cause others more work, more on the job injuries, etc. People are tired of paying for dopeheads.



Can a pre-employment requirement be a hair sample for drug testing?

If you signed on your application giving permission for the drug testing then yes they can redo the test if there was a problem.



Can a pre-employment requirement be a hair sample for drug testing?

Never heard of it. I work in restaurants and as a part-time fundraising supervisor. Been asked for a criminal record check but never for samples of anything, which I have nothing to worry about because I don't take prescription drugs or illegal drugs. Poppyseed muffins can come up as opium derivatives on a test, so watch out for that.



Can a pre-employment requirement be a hair sample for drug testing?

it can be...it goes back 6 months and it obviously cant be flushed out. its usually a urine sample because it cheaper and takes less time to process.



Can a pre-employment requirement be a hair sample for drug testing?

Everything is legal until proven otherwise. I could ask you for a toe nail the whole thing not just part and if you didn't I wouldn't hire you.



Can a pre-employment requirement be a hair sample for drug testing?

YES-MORE RELIABLE AND TESTS POSITIVE FOR ANY PESCRIPTION HAD ALSO--URINE TESTS DO NOT SHOW COCAINE AFTER 24-30 HOURS DRUG OF CHOICE-BUTA HAIR SAMPLE WILL SHOW EVERYTHING YOU HAVE TAKE IN YOUR SYSTEM--DO NOT CUT YOUR HAIR SHORT TO BEAT THE TEST BECAUSE IT IS DONE ON THE FOLICAL OF HAIR

How does drug testing using hair sample instead of urine work?

Does if takes the same the to go away like urine and blood? or does it just stays their in ur hair until you cut it?



How does drug testing using hair sample instead of urine work?

By doing a hair sample, they are able to determine when you used the drugs, and what types of drugs were used. Unlike a urine/blood test, the drug stays there until you get a hair cut.



How does drug testing using hair sample instead of urine work?

Actually it stays in the hair for up to a year.

What's the point of taking hair samples for drug testing?

Why can't they just take urine or blood samples, that can tell you if the drug use is recent or not? When a hair sample is taken, it gives away the past years of history. How is a person who went straight and turned their life around, stopped using drugs for good supposed to have a second chance at a good life if all other people care about is the past?



What's the point of taking hair samples for drug testing?

Actually no, hair testing is very reliable, trace elements and the amount of these elements will prove very well even about how long it has been.



A good lab will know the difference. And it also matters which drugs they are testing for, which method is best to use.



What's the point of taking hair samples for drug testing?

Sounds like grounds for an appeal to me.



What's the point of taking hair samples for drug testing?

George Orwell must be spinning in his grave.



What's the point of taking hair samples for drug testing?

drugs remain in the human hair longer, but it can also be dated like the rings in a tree



What's the point of taking hair samples for drug testing?

Drugs stay in the roots much longer than the blood or urine.



What's the point of taking hair samples for drug testing?

Because people who take drugs can't be trusted. They tend to be liars and have bad judgment. That's why you used drugs in the first place.



What's the point of taking hair samples for drug testing?

A lot of courts now require hair follicle testing. It is normally asked for when the party accused of doing drugs is denying that they have EVER done them. You would want to ask your lawyer to also order a blood or urine test to show that currently you are clean and make that argument to the Court. I'm not sure if the hair follicle tests shows how long ago there was drug use or not.

McCanns: Bad Hair Day ?

We read that the McCanns have commisioned private laboratory tests to 'prove' that they did not sedate the twins.



A source close to the couple said: 閳ユ穾ny legal team worth their salt would have these kinds of tests done. No evidence of sedatives were found in the twins' systems.閳?br>



It would be interesting to see the results of the childrens hair test after 169 days. Since in the US at least drug tests on hair are not acceptable as evidence after 90 days.



Basically are these hair tests on the twins just a waste of time and fund money ?



Source: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/wo...



Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_test#H...



McCanns: Bad Hair Day ?

So no evidence of sedatives were found in the twins' systems - just maybe that means there was nothing there!



Why are you so obsessed with finding these two guilty - you have no evidence whatsoever, you just don't like them and believe the twaddle in the press. Get a grip on reality.



McCanns: Bad Hair Day ?

If the media and other people would stop making all the assumptions there would be no need for all this speculation.



McCanns: Bad Hair Day ?

you know these funny people who protect the Mccanns are as guilty as the MC`s in my book....what a sh-it existence we ALL live...pray for the future



McCanns: Bad Hair Day ?

Yes even if they are found to have not been drugged, that has absolutely nothing to do with Madeleine does it?



McCanns: Bad Hair Day ?

Gerry refused to allow the children to be tested for drugs in the days following Madeleines disappearance. The PJ found it strange that they didn't wake up throughout all the hullabaloo on the night of May 3rd and wanted to test the twins. Being a doctor Gerry must know that any traces of sedatives would be now out of the twins hair and as he seems to be so well conected and protected I'm sure it would be no problem for him to find a "private clinic" to give him the results he wants.



McCanns: Bad Hair Day ?

i read this on the mirror forum, we know that about 3 weeks after maddie went missing the twins had a hair cut and gerry had refused to let the twins' urine be tested after the night she went missing.



McCanns: Bad Hair Day ?

Yep, completely pointless after all this time and the McCanns must know that. Why didn't he allow it at the time when it was suggested to him?



McCanns: Bad Hair Day ?

it is just another McSpin Story to try to prove their innocence and create some positive media headlines to make it look like they are being co-operative to the police and forensic team... they know full well it will show worthless results ... but it wont exhonorate them will it? take a bit more than this I am afraid to convince me and other members of the public and PJ.

Looks as if you have your answer from the previous answers. I can only endorse them

Can someone pass a hair drug screen if they only tried pot once. 4months ago! the test goes 6 months

the answer is no,that test ( hair sample ) can tell them what cough syrup your mother gave you when you where 2.and i mean the date and time,it is a very accurate test and can not be fooled...( relitive in the C.I.A trust me on this...)

There are shampoos that you can get to strip your hair... you could probably find online.



Can someone pass a hair drug screen if they only tried pot once. 4months ago! the test goes 6 months back?

From what I understand of hair tests, it is possible it will show up, it just depends on how much you tried of it. It will also show about how long ago it was.

i've heard the go back 6 years

I'm not saying I know for sure, but if you only did it once. I don't think it would show up.



I've been on steroids and pain medication for 6 months, and it didnt show up. But then again, I don;t abuse it either.



Can someone pass a hair drug screen if they only tried pot once. 4months ago! the test goes 6 months back?

You can fail. If you still have the hair that was in your folicles at the time that the pot was leaving your body(about 2 weeks after smoking) then you will fail. If you have alot of hair, get a really short haircut.



If hair grows at about .41 inches a month, times 3 that's about 1.25 inches of hair at the longest point. Get a crew cut. 1.25 inches is long for the top of a crew cut. It will grow back out and you will get your job.

Marijuana can show up in a hair follice up until 6 months after use. However if it truly was ONLY once there may not be any. Drinking water will not help in a hair test - that only gets it out of your blood or urine.



Somking weed once show up in a drug test?

it only takes about 3 weeks for it to be out of your system, so your fine. =]

Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

I was in my workplace office today and saw a paper tacked up for having this done. Apparently the drugs never leave your hair until it all grows out and is cut off. The test is pretty expensive but I never heard of such a thing. I don't do drugs but found this interesting.



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Yes, this is a very common way for many companies to test for drug use going a ways back. Here's a bit more info:



"Hair testing is quite accurate and can go back 6 months or longer, showing any controlled substances used in a sort of timeline. 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 lab can detect. Most legitimate testing facilities, however, only use hair within about 3-5 cm of the scalp, and discard the rest. This limits the detection history to about 90 days, depending upon the rate of growth of the individual's hair. 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."



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

wow



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Yes it is true, and you cannot get a coverup for it either



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

I had heard of that



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

i am a nerd. of course i knew.



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

They should use this in court more often.



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

OMG that is crazy!! A cool thing though!



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Yes and Egyptian mummies have traces of South American drugs in their hair. Now that's interesting.



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Its sampling the root of your hair. The root of your hair will tell everything you have ever done. (No it does not leave when your hair grows out.) It is always there.



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Yes... It is used extensively by many corporations that have safety critical jobs b/c as it was put earlier you can not cover it up unless the hair is cut off... i guess druggies should shave their heads...



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Yes I knew. pretty interesting isn't it.



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Yes, the hair testing has been around for several years. The military primarily uses urine testing for drugs, and does that about once every 3 month's to catch the more "popular" drugs. The hair testing, which you pointed out as being more expensive, is used to find a more wide range of drugs that someone has done, or is doing. The military does do both hair and urine testing when they are concerned about the drug usage of some of the soldiers.



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Yes. I know of that testing. There are kits out there available to the public that are just for testing for drugs from hair cuttings.'



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

* Are currently several times more expensive than urine tests (~$100-$150).



* Are considered a relatively unintrusive method of drug testing.



* Detect substance use over a longer period (see detection period).



* Do not usually detect use within the past week.



* Require a sample of hair about the diameter of a pencil and 1.5 inches long. They can not be done with a single hair.



* Test positive a little more than twice as often as a urine test. In a recent study, out of 1823 paired hair and urine samples, 57 urine samples tested positive for drugs of abuse; while 124 hair samples from the same group tested positive.



* 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.



* Claims to be able to reliably differentiate between opiate and poppy seed use.



* We've heard that many hair tests now check for more than the NIDA 5, and include at least Cannabis, Ecstasy/MDMA, Cocaine, Opiates, Methamphetamine, Amphetamine, Phencyclidine (PCP), Benzodiazepines, %26amp; Barbiturates (2001).



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Yes i did know this.As drugs are ingested into the body, they circulate in a persons bloodstream. Trace amounts of these drugs or the drug metabolites are deposited in the hair follicle. As the hair grows they remain stored in the core of the hair shaft.



When a person is tested, samples are taken at various levels in the hair shaft so that a reasonably accurate approximation can be made of how long ago a particular drug was used. Drugs cannot be washed, bleached, or flushed out of the hair follicle.



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

It stays in the root of your hair for up to 30 days (pot)



Did you know that there is such a thing as drug testing on your hair?

Oh yes, why do you think I got a crew cut??

Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

Drug testing is infrequently performed on blood and almost never performed on human hair, except in situations where a crimincal forensic investigation is occurring. Testing on blood must be very specific and is usually reserved for situations when a specific drug is suspected for abuse. Blood is never used for broad spectrum testing. Your drug screen will most likely be urine. Do not take vitamins, or any other such foolish things, as they do not interfer with Laboratory testing at all. Time is the best thing to remove drugs from your system. Also, for the record, there is no such thing as "male urine" or "female urine"...where do people come up with this stuff?! LOL



Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

You can stop doing drugs for a start. They you can go take your test and face the music like an adult.



Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

Shave all the hair off your body before you go. Also get certification that you are a hemopheliac. Bring along some urine from someone similar in age/sex/race as you are who is clean.



Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

You need just one thing " STAY AWAY FROM DRUGS" if you want to pass that test.



Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

I agree, stop using drugs. That's the best way. As for trying to fool the test, get caught and your troubles are just starting.



Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

Hair, you are screwed, especially depending on what kind of drugs you have done and how recently.



Urine, weed, lots of water and multi-vitamins till test time. (stupid if you did hard stuff) this is also hit or mniss, most of the time works if done right.



Blood, really have no clue but I think it depends similar to hair test. I know the evidence is in the hair for a very long time, like years even.



Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

Depending on what type of test it is...for urine test check out urine clear on the internet. This is clean urine that you could use for a drug test, it is not male or female specific. You need to heat it up but then it is ready to go. For blood test, I don't think there is anything you can do to pass that test. Also, a hair test is where they pull out strands from your head and test the folicle. There is really no way of beating that system either. Also for urine test, you can also get stuff at the health food stores (kinda expensive) that you drink, then you have to refill the bottle 2 times more and drink that down.



Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

Stop listening to these pretensious idiots for a minute. First of all, the cost of a hair sample drug test is in the $10,000 range at minumum. If your taking a urine test, Go clean for as long as possible, but depending on your size a week should be long enough, products usually require at LEAST 48 hours. I am 6-3 280 lbs and I quit for almost 2 weeks. Go to your local 'head shop' and ask the people there for a detoxifying product. I took a drink called 'Valex' and got the strongest detoxifier they had because of my body size. Drink as much water as humanly possible until the DAY of the test. Dont drink too much on that day because it will wash out your urine. Follow the instructions on the product, usually they will say take one hour before test, piss 2-3 times. After that hour you have 4-5 hrs of being clean, but try to take the test within the 2nd hour. Oh, and the product tastes horrible so dont puke it up. Volia.



Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

detox



Need to pass a drug test..not sure if it's blood or urian or hair what can i do?

nothing, if u used, then ur done.



specially if they do hair, that can go back 3 months to see what you MAY have been up to. hair grows about 1/2 inch a month,

I used Meth 2 & a half months ago, have colored my hair will it be clean for a 3 month drug test

I guess it depends how long your hair is. Drug testing in hair is a little like looking at the rings in a tree trunk-the older it is the further it gets away from the new growth. So the answer is, if your hair is shorter than 2.5 months worth of growth then you should be ok. Wouldn't really bet your job on it though, so get a really really short hair cut and DON'T DO DRUGS AGAIN IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR JOB!!!! A good friend of mine always wanted to work in forensics's but balls it all up at the last minute taking E at a club and got caught in a random drugs test. Seriously, if you like your job, just don't risk it (all the regular don't do drugs stuff aside).



I used Meth 2 %26amp; a half months ago, have colored my hair will it be clean for a 3 month drug test?

no it won t



I used Meth 2 %26amp; a half months ago, have colored my hair will it be clean for a 3 month drug test?

colouring your hair wont work. you need to shave ALL hair from your body. armpits, crotch, head the works.



why on earth did you do it in the first place?



I used Meth 2 %26amp; a half months ago, have colored my hair will it be clean for a 3 month drug test?

You might be just a little paranoid. Very few jobs will go as far as to take hair samples. Most will just take a urine sample.



I used Meth 2 %26amp; a half months ago, have colored my hair will it be clean for a 3 month drug test?

Drugs stay in your hair. Instead of coloring you hair, just don't use meth.

When drug testing, do they know the difference in hair. ex, chin hair from pubic hair, etc?

besides coarseness, is there any telling the difference? do they test hair in general...



When drug testing, do they know the difference in hair. ex, chin hair from pubic hair, etc?

yes, they can tell...in fact, there are three distinctly different types of hair on a man's face...mustache hair is different than beard which is different than sideburns...all easily identifiable from each other.
