Hair Drug Testing

Hair strand drug testing is a highly efficient and accurate method of detecting drug use. It involves analysing a small sample of hair to determine the presence of various drugs and substances. 

This innovative testing technique offers numerous advantages over traditional methods, such as urine or blood tests. Hair strand drug testing has a longer detection window (several months), providing a comprehensive overview of an individual's drug history. Additionally, it allows for a non-invasive collection process and is nearly impossible to manipulate or cheat. With its reliability and precision, hair strand drug testing has become a preferred choice for family law solicitors/barristers, local authorities, law enforcement agencies, and individuals seeking accurate drug detection.

On average hair grows at a rate of 1cm per. This means that generally speaking, every of centimetre of hair cover 1 month worth of drug use history. Hair can be further segmented into a month by month segmentation pattern to determine the behaviour of substance/drug use. The hair can be segmented into different hair segments, it can be 1 centimetre (cm) at a time; such as segmenting 3cm of hair into 1+1+1 cm, or as an overview of 3cm or 6cm.
