Even with the head shaved there are hair particles within the skin. If the drug test demands the hair from the head and there is none then hair must be retrieved elsewhere, such as the arms, legs, or pubic region, otherwise, the test needs to be rescheduled.

How far back can a hair test detect heroin?

Hair tests will show positive for as long as you have the hair. If your hair grows at the rate of 1/2" per month and you keep your hair an inch long, it will take two to three months for all the drugs in the hair to grow out and be cut off.


How can I wash cocaine out of my hair?

Cocaine is soluble in water. Take a shower. ANSWER If you mean you have been taking it and it is in your hair from that and you may be tested by having a hair test, you can't wash it out, it is integral to the hair. It will continue to be in your hair for some time after you stop using so stop now, then have your hair cut.


How long does it take for marijuana to get out of hair?

From what I have read in pamphlets from companies attempting to sell kits to test hair for drugs, it remains in your hair as long as you have the hair that was growing in pouch-like structure below the skin called a hair follicle (What we see as hair is actually the hair shaft) at the time of ingestion of the drug. As you may know however, there are products that are capable of stripping your hair of the traces of drugs being tested for. Because the hair "stripping" kits actually work very effectively hair testing is rarely used. ( unlike all of the crap sold to supposedly mask drugs in urine)It is/was thought to be a better representative of a persons drug habits as continuous use of drugs would be represented by a positive result the entire length of hair, if it was intermittent use this would be represented by intermittent positives along the length of hair.


How do you do porosity hair test?

To conduct a porosity hair test, take a strand of hair (clean and dry) and place it in a bowl of water. If the hair sinks quickly, it likely has high porosity. If it floats, it might have low porosity. If the hair floats in the middle of the water, it is considered to have normal porosity.

How far does a hair sample go back for drugs Can I cut my hair and get rid of it?

Drugs show up at the root. Since the hair grows at the rate of 1/2 inch per month, you must decide how short to cut your hair. Perhaps shaving your head will start a new fashion statement. And people wondered why Brittany shaved her head. Note that those places that require a drug test will not 'forget about it' if there isn't enough hair on the head. They can take hair from anyplace on the body. And if there isn't enough hair anywhere to do a test, they can require a blood test to meet the requirements. If you are on probation, they can terminate the probation and send you to jail. Or they can refuse to hire you, or continue with your employment.

How do you get a girl back if she likes you because of your hair and you shave you head?

Well first of all, if she likes you because of your hair, then that's not a real relationship to me and honestly, you should let her go. And if you shaved your head, then it would take a while to grow back, so I'd say there's no way that that's going to happen. :X
