Hair drug testing is the newest method of drug testing to be embraced by the drug testing industry. For some apparent reason, the general public is a bit baffled about hair drug testing, perhaps believing that a strand of hair could be tested for drugs is more urban legend than truth. Well, it can be said unequivocally that hair drug testing is quite real, used often in many settings, including employee drug testing, and is uniquely accurate. A stand of hair, whether its from the scalp or other body hair, can detect drug exposure for years. Some christen hair drug testing as a tree trunk whose rings can reveal its age upon examination.
