Hair drug tests are used by employers who have zero tolerance drug use policies, courts and individuals on probation. The primary advantage of a hair drug test is that it includes a much longer detection period for drug use which typically is up to 90 days. However, when screening for drug use within the last 5 days the urine test continues to be the most accurate test.

Hair drug testing is the only method available that provides up to a 90-day look back period for drug use.  Data has shown that hair drug testing provides almost twice the number of positives because of its longer window of detection (look back period). If a donor has no hair on their body, then a hair test cannot be performed!

FAQ's About Hair Drug Testing

What Is The Hair Drug Test Process?
A certified hair collection specialist will cut approximately 120 strands of hair (about the internal diameter of a straw), utilize a chain of custody procedure and send the hair to a certified laboratory for analysis. Drug testing centers and laboratories require at least 1.5 inches of hair from the crown portion of the head to perform this test and is the only way to certify the results for 90 days. 
How Long Do Drugs Stay in Your System for a Hair Drug Test?
The average growth of an individual’s head hair is approximately 1.3 cm (1/2 inch per month), therefore hair at the length of 1.5 inches will be validated for that 90-day lookback period.  Hair generally needs to come from the head, however if the donor does not have head hair certain testing centers can use hair from chest, leg or arm pit.
How Long It Take to Receive Hair Drug Test Results?
Once the hair has been analyzed by a certified laboratory, they will then be reviewed and then verified by a Medical Review Officer (licensed Physician) who will release the results. Generally, a negative hair drug test result is available in 3-4 business days and a non-negative hair drug test is available in approximately 5-7 business days from when the hair specimen reaches the laboratory for analysis. Urine cut-off levels are expressed in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) or as a weight of drug per unit volume of urine. Hair cut-off levels are expressed in picograms per milligram (pg/mg) or as a weight of drug per unit weight of hair.

Introduction to Brave

Brave is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP) in Wayne Township, Greene County, Pennsylvania, United States. It lies in Pennsylvania's southwestern corner near the West Virginia border. As of the 2010 census the population was 201.

During the early 1900s, a cooling system was built on the Dunkard Creek by People's Natural Gas Company to facilitate its operations at a compressor station in Brave. This system consisted of pipes which were placed at the creek's bottom, plus two dams built to provide a consistent flow of water supply to and through the cooling system, enabling the compressor station to cool the gas which was processed there. Although the compressor station was closed in 1959, the apparatus from that cooling system was left in place, causing a series of environmental issues. Among the problems, the presence of the system prevented fish from migrating, and was also found to have contributed to a golden algae bloom, which was responsible for a massive fish kill that destroyed most of the aquatic life along a 43-mile stretch of the stream in 2009. In response, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service contacted Ed and Verna Presley, the present-day owners of the land where the lower dam was located, and Anderson Fittings, the owner of the upper dam and brass plant, in 2010 to arrange to demolish both dams. The project, which was made possible with funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, was initially estimated to cost between $77,000 and $150,000.

Skylar Neese was murdered on July 6, 2012 in a site in Wayne Township, near Brave.
