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 Ivanpah

Ivanpah is in the Mojave National Preserve in San Bernardino County, California. There are several residences in the area, but no real village.

Ivanpah is located on the bajada below the northeast side of the New York Mountains overlooking the broad Ivanpah Valley. The Ivanpah Mountains lie across the valley to the northwest.

Ivanpah is located at the crossing of Ivanpah Road and the Union Pacific Railroad, which was the Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad until 1921 when it was bought out by Union Pacific. There was once a general store located here. It burned mysteriously in the early morning of 7 September 1944, killing the couple, Mr. and Mrs. William F. Pearce, both 40, who ran it. A Union Pacific engineer who passed through at 1:20 a.m. reported to Deputy Coroner Harry Trehearne at Nipton that the store lights were on and a car was parked outside. When he reached Nipton ten minutes later, he looked back and saw the store on fire. Railroad authorities told him to return and render aid. He did so and found the car gone, the building burned, and the bodies inside. County Coroner R. E. Williams stated on 20 September that with authorities unable to establish definite evidence of foul play as originally suspected, that he would sign out on the death of the victims “as resulting from fifth and sixth degree burns from a fire of an undetermined origin.” He said that desert officers are still investigating mysterious circumstances surrounding the fatal fire but the foul play theory will be discarded unless there are some unforeseen developments in the case.

We also offer 9, 12,14 and 17 panel hair tests.  For more information on hair testing or to order a hair drug test in Ivanpah, CA, call Smart Drug Testing at 800-977-8664 or pick your test below.
