How Accurate is Hair Follicle Testing?

Hair follicle testing is renowned for its accuracy and reliability. Unlike other testing methods, hair testing can detect drug use over a longer period, typically up to 90 days. This extended detection window makes it an ideal choice for employers and legal entities seeking a comprehensive view of an individual's drug use history.

Hair Test Detection Window

The detection window for hair testing is one of its most significant advantages. While urine tests can only detect recent drug use, hair tests can identify drug use patterns over the past three months. This makes hair testing particularly useful for:

  • Pre-employment screening
  • Random drug testing
  • Legal and court-ordered testing

Hair Sample Collection Method

Our hair sample collection method is straightforward and minimally invasive. A small sample of hair, typically about 1.5 inches in length, is cut close to the scalp. This sample is then securely packaged and sent to our laboratory for analysis. Our trained professionals ensure that the collection process is quick, discreet, and comfortable for all clients.

Hair Test vs. Urine Test

When deciding between a hair test and a urine test, it's essential to consider the specific needs of your testing program. Here are some key differences:

  • Detection Window: Hair tests offer a longer detection window (up to 90 days) compared to urine tests (up to a few days).
  • Invasiveness: Hair tests are non-invasive, while urine tests require a sample collection that some may find uncomfortable.
  • Substance Detection: Both tests can detect a wide range of substances, but hair tests are less likely to be affected by short-term abstinence.

Hair Follicle Test Preparation

Preparing for a hair follicle test is simple. There are no special requirements or restrictions before the test. However, it's essential to inform our staff of any hair treatments or medications you are currently using, as these can sometimes affect the results.

Hair Test Results Interpretation

Interpreting hair test results requires expertise and precision. At Fastest Labs of Sarasota, our trained professionals provide clear and concise interpretations of your test results. We ensure that you understand the findings and their implications, whether for personal, employment, or legal purposes.
