U may as well not even go for that drug test. U will fail. Employers are starting to use the hair test more now because it is very accurate for testing for lots of drugs and it tell if you have useds drugs even a very long time ago. Forget the job.

Q: What drugs does HairConfirm⢠screen for?
A: HairConfirm⢠screens for five different drug classes: Cocaine (cocaine & benzoylecgonine), Marijuana (THC-COOH), Opiates (Codeine, Morphine & 6-monacteyl morphine), Amphetamines (Meth/amphetamines & Ecstasy) and Phencyclidine (PCP, angel dust).
Q: What time period does the HairConfirm⢠test cover?
A: HairConfirm⢠will detect drugs for a period of 90 days. The test requires a hair sample of 1.5 inches in length. Each 0.5 inch represents 30 days. The hair sample must be cut as close to the scalp as possible and only the most recent 1.5 inches are tested.
Q: How does the test work?
A: Using the detailed instructions as a guide, collect a hair sample of approximately the diameter of a shoelace tip. Mail the hair sample to the CLIA certified laboratory, Omega Laboratories, Inc, using the pre-addressed, prepaid envelope provided. The laboratory will analyze the hair sample for evidence of drug use. Using the HairConfirm⢠Specimen ID number, passcode and email address, you must register your test online once you have mailed the samples to the laboratory. Go to the results section to obtain the results. Complete instructions on how to register and obtain the test result report are included with the test collection kit.

The test you are going to take will tell not only that you do drugs but how often you do them as well. You should be worried. There is nothing that you can do. Hair grows at different rates all over your body and they will use any hair you have.

I hate to admit it, but everyone else is absolutely correct. Some people have tried to bleach their hair and stuff, but that absolutely won't work. Your hair retains all of the toxins your body has. The only thing I could think of doing would be to get an extremely short haircut- like 1/8 of an inch. That would be about the only thing I could think of doing.

Sorry, but it will pick up even one hit of cocaine. There's nothing you can do to hide it. Usually, the tests go back three months, so anything you've used in that time will show up.
