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 Juanita

Juanita is a neighborhood of Kirkland, Washington located along the northeast edge of Lake Washington. Until it was annexed by Kirkland in 2011, the area was an unincorporated area governed by King County.

Juanita Bay was first home to members of the Duwamish tribe, who occupied a village at the mouth of Juanita Creek in today's Juanita Beach Park. The village was known as TUHB-tuh-byook'w, Duwamish jargon for 'Loamy Place' after the composition of the soil, known as loam. The bay was a popular place to harvest Wapatoes, a type of aquatic potato.

A small village sprang up in the 1890s when Martin W. Hubbard, who had lived with his family on the hill east of the area since the 1870s, constructed a dock on the lake shore. The village was named Hubbard, after him. A post office was established, with Hubbard as postmaster, which required him to transfer mail between Seattle and Juanita by rowboat. Dorr Forbes, a civil war veteran, settled in Kirkland in 1877. After living on his original claim at Forbes Lake (then known as Kirkland Lake) on Rose Hill, he relocated to the Juanita area in the mid-1880s where he established a small shingle mill in what is now Forbes Park, roughly three blocks north of the waterfront. Prior to the mill, there was little demand for lumber and trees were simply burned to clear land. A dam was built across Juanita Creek in order to form a log pond for the mill. After a Dry kiln was installed at the mill in 1894, it burned to the ground and was not rebuilt. Harry Langdon, son of 1877 pioneer Roland Langdon, established the community's first store. Dairy and agriculture farms began to gradually take the place of the cleared forests and several gravel pits that served the City of Seattle were operated in the area in the 1910s and 1920s. The lowering of Lake Washington in 1915 shrunk the size of Juanita Bay considerably.

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 Juanita, WA, call Smart Drug Testing at 800-977-8664 or pick your test below.
