Why Hair Drug Testing?
Hair Drug Testing is based on the fact that when any drug is consumed, its metabolites are carried to different body organs, including the hair, through the bloodstream. A Hair Drug test can provide information like which drug someone is using or has used in the past and for how long he has been using that drug. The head hairs grow at a speed of 1 cm/month, and a Hair Drug Test can reveal the history of drug use in a person for up to 12 months.
A Hair Drug Test is of two types:
- Overview Analysis
- Segmented Analysis
Overview analysis
Over a period of drug consumption, the episodes of drug use get averaged for the time period being tested. Depending upon the length of the hair sample, the Overview Analysis data can determine the drug use over that period. For example, a 3 cm hair section is used to determine drug use within 3 months. A 6 cm hair section is used for the overview data of 6 months in two different ways -for the first three months and the later three months. However, in case a person has not taken a drug for two months, and then suddenly started taking an excessive amount of the drug for the last one month, the overview analysis of 3 months will be able to find the drug markers along the entire length of the hair. For a more detailed data on such a case, a Segmented Analysis is a better choice.
| Analysis type required (months) | Number of segments | Reported time period | Type of Test |
| 3 | 1 | 3 months | Overview |
| 3 | 3 | 3 individual months | Segmented |
| 6 | 2 | 2 x 3-month periods | Overview |
| 6 | 6 | 6 individual months | Segmented |
Segmented Analysis
A Segmented Analysis is a method of month-by-month profiling of drug use in a person. It is the most detailed type of Hair Drug Testing and can reveal one’s indulgence in drug consumption and his/her patterns or habit of drug use. The Segmented Analysis Hair Drug Testing includes cutting down the hair strands into 1 cm sections for month-by-month drug use data. A segmented analysis is also helpful in establishing an increase or decrease in the trend of drug use in an individual. However, Segmented Analysis is not limited to determining long-term drug use. It can also be used to determine the single administration of a specific drug, as the analysis of the small sections of Hair can help establish a positive Hair Drug Test in a limited time.

How are samples collected?
Sample Collection for Hair Drug Test
For Hair Drug testing, around 200 individual hair strands roughly of the thickness of a pencil are collected. Generally, head hairs are preferred. But where there is not enough hair or no hair on the head, or due to religious or cosmetic reasons, hairs of certain other body parts can be taken. These include the hair from the chest, the underarms, leg, and the beard. Unlike the head hair, other body hairs can not tell the exact time frame of a drug. Using our easy to use Home drug testing kit, you can collect the hair sample and send it to our testing facility for analysis.
