Why Panic Bleaching for hair follicle test is a bad idea

Today, I encountered three individuals who, unsure of what to do, made a regrettable decision... they chose to listen to misguided advice online and bleach their hair!

Now, why is bleaching your hair such a bad idea? Well, the problem lies in the fact that many people tend to follow unwise recommendations like the "mac" or "jerry g" methods, which suggest bleaching and using random and nonsensical products like Tide laundry detergent and acne wash (clearly lacking scientific credibility). They often suggest repeatedly bleaching and coloring the hair, which ultimately leads to disastrous results.

As a consequence, their hair becomes severely damaged, resembling fried strands, and to make matters worse, they still fail to achieve the desired outcome.

 

Apparently people are not aware you can fail a hair follicle test from bleaching and random harsh "methods"    until they get a lab result that  says " Hair sample to damaged to process"  .

uhhhhh you did not need to cut hair they only keep the first 1.5" to test   i only care that the first 2 " is not damaged  😬

Right, I knew that but for some idiotic reason, I bleached all of my hair again. I only cut it bc after that the ends were so fried it wasn’t manageable. It was breaking off anyway so I basically had to chop it off. It’ll grow back and I’m thinking of getting some extensions until it does. Thanks a bunch!  Arrived today so I’m going to get started tonight!

Exposing the Propylene Glycol / Aloe Rid shampoo myth

 

                                  

The HISTORY of the  2 part product that you never knew of and how it was

used to create the propylene glycol Aloe Rid myth 

(And how others are still selling commercial aloe shampoo )  

                                                           

 

This is a educational informative, historical article / opinion piece. 

Protected by Fair Use 

 

 

 

 Well its been 15 years since NEXXUS Aloe rid  went off the market.  For most of you, all you know is the myth. You know very little of the actual history of the product and its false marketing as a  super special shampoo to pass a drug test.  

 

Once apon a time their was a 2 part product  called Aloe rid, a shampoo and a chelation treatment gel put out by a nexxus to remove hair product build up as a pre treatment to chemical treating hair such as coloring. First you washed with the aloe rid  clarifying shampoo which contained % 0.5 EDTA   and sodium thiosulfate (for treating swimmers green )  then you used the green gel Treatment which contained a slightly higher amount of %1 EDTA which is known as a chelator for removing minerals (not drugs). WANT TO SEE FULL LIST OF ALOE RID SHAMPOO INGREDIENTS AND WHAT THEY DO ?

 This was a COMMERCIAL product and has no super special powers despite lies some websites that claimed " they stopped making nexxus aloe rid because it would destroy your hair " again it was a commercial product sold in supercuts,   it was no different than suave. They both were emerald green and  BOTH had the same active ingredient, EDTA . All hair products of this nature have it even suave clarifer.

 

 How a commercial shampoo product got known for being used for drug detox

 The first people to re-bottle aloe rid shampoo and treatment and sell it as a hair detox around 2000 was a product called  afterburner. Others starting to learn what they were re bottling and talking about it and the myth was born.  A certain company that sold small tubes of aloe rid learn nexxu swas ending production of aloe rid in 2005 . At the time they changed the formula which is of NO MATTER other than an excuse for the con artist to make a false claim as a marketing scheme claiming the new formula was no good and you had to use the old formula which was the only one in small tubes that the con artist sold .  

Being the Aloe Rid propylene glycol myth promoters couldn't just formulate a legit product and were not willing to let it go they NEEDED to continue the aloe rid myth. So they demonized the newer small bottles claiming the  "Old formula had high propylene glycol  levels" story  and "old bottles had a special bar code".  

 

Propylene glycol is just a wetting agent used in not just every commercial shampoo but its in literally everything. As i repeatedly mention Propylene glycol is NOT a active ingredient as the pot head forum know nothings regurgitate, the active ingredient is EDTA.

  

 

This is how the scam got started, a lie that propalyne glycol a ingredient that was no longer in the aloe rid product was from mars and only if you had the old formula  that this con artist had in stock could you pass a hair test.

 well eventually the conartist ran out of the tubes he sold so he would buy gallon bottles from remaining stock as gallons were no longer made in 2006. he would fill bottles and sell them for ten times price.

Possibly the only time real aloe rid was used in few years after nexxus ended production

    

 

says old style "aloe rid"  and "pumped from gallons"  with a link to the video mentioned .

 

 Remember  This mass of product was in gallons so they claimed they had to PUMP IT FROM GALLONS to fill plain bottles. The pumped from gallons was born . They even had a video showing them supposedly pumping aloe rid shampoo from gallons, only it was a half gallon jug of the TREATMENT not the shampoo !!  They even put the video link on the bottle encase anyone questioned the reason the website posted an image of nexxus aloe rid only to  received a plain bottle with plain label ( aside from this small print mention it would be considered a bait and switch scheme ) .This is where the pumped from gallons tag line that is still used today by them comes from. 

 They still show photos of the CLARIFYING TREATMENT GEL (not a shampoo) claiming they pump from gallons of a shampoo that has been out of production for 15 years 

 

 

 but then the gallons ran out around 2009.

Not to let a small thing like honesty get in the way the con artist started filling bottles with god knows what, It was  not even the same color as aloe rid and now the brazen con artist put a label on it using the aloe rid trademark . this is called counterfeiting in most courts.

 

 

 

  Next they devised a scheme claiming they had obtained a boat load of the original product,  claiming they found 55 gallon barrels of the special barcode stuff.( do BARRELS  have bar codes? )  they also later claimed to had obtained  5 gallon containers neither have i ever seen  .

 

The excuse for this is still online claiming . " The reason for this, is that we bought in bulk for our supply.  We have large 1 and 5 gallon containers  of the Nexxus Aloe Rid which we use to to pump out the 5 ounces of shampoo into our own generic bottles.  "
Aloe Rid does not have a guarantee........  What does that mean?  It means that the Old Style  Aloe Rid (which is the only version we carry, ( notice read BETWEEN the lines they didnt say we carry NEXXUS )  although we do send you the shampoo in generic 5 ounce bottles, so please be aware of this) is not covered by the manufacturer as it is out of production with Nexxus.... it's not covered under guarantee of refund for failure. "

 IS IT ME OR DOES IT SEEM THEY PURPOSELY CONFUSE THE CUSTOMERS 

seems like allot of shenanigans to sell a 5 oz bottle of  commercial shampoo for over 200.00

 What do you call it when a website post a image like this

 

Show you a video like this 

 

 But then sends you this ?.... what would you call that? 

 

 

 

 

Bait and Switch

Some courts have likened initial interest confusion to “bait and switch” tactics, long condemned as a deceptive advertising practice. See Dorr-Oliver, Inc. v. Fluid-Quip, Inc., 94 F.3d 376, 382 (7th Cir. 1996). But the classic bait and switch tactic differs somewhat from trademark infringement.

In the classic initial interest confusion case, the defendant adopts a mark that is similar to plaintiff’s mark. The defendant’s similar mark is used to attract potential customers. Although eventually the customers realize with whom they are dealing, the use of the mark to create an initial attraction to the defendant through the mistaken belief that the defendant is in fact the plaintiff constitutes trademark infringement.

certainly doesnt look like color nexxus aloe rid            but it did have the Aloe Rid trademark font which some courts would call counterfeiting

 

 trademark infringement

ILL JUST LEAVE THIS HERE FOR YOU TO READ  

15 U.S. Code § 1114.

I(1) Any person who shall, without the consent of the registrant—

(a)

use in commerce any reproduction, counterfeit, copy, or colorable imitation of a registered mark in connection with the sale, offering for sale, distribution, or advertising of any goods or services on or in connection with which such use is likely to cause confusion, or to cause mistake, or to deceive; or

(b)

reproduce, counterfeit, copy, or colorably imitate a registered mark and apply such reproduction, counterfeit, copy, or colorable imitation to labels, signs, prints, packages, wrappers, receptacles or advertisements intended to be used in commerce upon or in connection with the sale, offering for sale, distribution, or advertising of goods or services on or in connection with which such use is likely to cause confusion, or to cause mistake, or to deceive,

shall be liable in a civil action by the registrant for the remedies hereinafter provided. Under subsection (b) hereof, the registrant shall not be entitled to recover profits or damages unless the acts have been committed with knowledge that such imitation is intended to be used to cause confusion, or to cause mistake, or to deceive.

 

Finally sometime in 2018 we noticed they suddenly changed their name and removed all aloe rid pictures and the pumped from gallons video disappeared....anyone want to guess why they would suddenly drop what some may call a bait n switch trademark infringement counterfeit  scheme ?

 At the same time they suddenly changed their name from aloe rid they used a modified version of a different product name of theirs that matched a URL we  obtained in anticipation of  new products. At first I got triggered as i though they were doing me as they did nexxus. I now know they changed label from aloe rid to T**** just weeks before so its seems to be coincidence both using aloe rid key word.  

 

 As of Today

So the  new label  no longer carries the trademark infringing ALOE RID mark. But a program of years of confusion  alluding to it as synonymous with original formula nexxus aloe rid and its propylene glycol myth continues. 

 many people seeking nexxus aloe rid due to ignorance and being sold on the aloe rid / propalyne glycol MYTH  that it works for destroying drugs in hair could be confused and purchase NON  NEXXUS Aloe Rid and may even feel cheated wanting a refund.

  This would be the fault of the seller marketing a lie ( ITS CALLED CONTRIBUTORY NEGLIGENCE )  / promoter of the confusion not the one who is exposing it, especially when a product still conducts a purposeful wordage like ...........  " pumped from gallons"  and "old style ".

 old style WHAT ?  pumped from gallons of  WHAT ?     go ahead and ask them . 

 new label using a tag line "old style " ( not original formula and their is no "new style" )   and " pumped from gallons " ?  alluding to  it was pumped from gallons of NEXXUS aloe rid which most could call  deceptive trade practices . 

 

 MACUJO WHO USES THE TIRED OLD PROPLYNE GLYCOL MYTH   

promoting the special barcode nonsense

AGAIN, Propylene Glycol IS NOT A ACTIVE INGREDIENT,( its also at bottom of list because its very weak ) EDTA is the active ingredient and its in all commercial clarifying shampoos.

 

 

 Propylene Glycol is a wetting agent only.  Both EDTA and propylene glycol are in many commercial shampoos. Their IS NO provable effect or difference in these or say SUAVE clarifying shampoo for 5.00. other than .25 worth of PG

 As for PG being so "special " you can get a whole bottle of Propylene glycol from a vap shop supply store for a few bucks.  So dump some PG in a big ass bottle of suave and you have same clarifyer (15 x's of it) with propylene glycol for 10.00 bucks if you actually believed in the PG nonsense.

 

All "METHODS"  are used to sell Schampoos 

These aloe rid and the knockoff shampoos that are sold in METHOD promotions which exist solely to sell shcampoo that admittedly do NOTHING. As you need to use another 100.00 worth of household items to TRY and create any reduction makes these  an even bigger deception than this propylene glycol nonsense but that's for another article  . 

Hair Detox " METHODS", Created to Sell "Scampoo"

 That's right the long refereed to METHODS of random items of endless combinations touted by clueless internet forum gurus was created to peddle worthless commercial shampoo like Aloe Rid . 

Youve all seen them, wither it be the mac method or Jerry G or what ever, chances are you will find mountains of people who take these things and add their own items, as if it in any way matters. What you always find in common with the random list of STUFF is a Shampoo.  Whoever is pushing the Method it just happens that they are selling a shampoo. A shampoo that when sold by itself is admitted to be worthless if you have real use. like gram a day thc or god forbid your needing to detox Cocaine use from your hair. 

 

The Scampoo peddlers will sell you a product that is just a Commercial shampoo, probably some aloe rid knock off . These METHOD gurus typically use some aloe rid copy cat product as it was the original SCAMPOO used in the first METHOD.  Thats why it is still pushed as it has the longest history in the mythology of scampoo . Regardless of the METHOD and its random list of pointless items they all are created to sell Commercial shampoo no different than SUAVE .

 

Some push the magical bar code myth and the propalyne glycol nonsense. PG is just a wetting agent used in every dam product. you can but it in pure form by a vap shop for 4.00 so why is the SCAMPOO sold  for hundreds of dollars? Then they tell you its only going to help if you buy a hundred dollars worth of random household items and use in a unknown amount.

 

YES  im pushing a product  DUHH ,  But im NOT a douche bag whos  trying to convince you to buy suave and tide to pass a vitally important hair follicle test.

REALITY OF HAIR DETOX "METHODS" AND "ALOE SHAMPOOS "

 

Looking for information on Mac method hair detox ? 

Are you interested in learning about the Mac method for hair detox?

If you are a regular drug user or someone who has recently used drugs and is now facing a drug test, you may feel panicked and desperate to find a solution. Unfortunately, many companies take advantage of this desperation and use mass marketing tactics to sell ineffective products at inflated prices.

These products often make outrageous claims that are not backed up by science or research, and may contain the same ingredients as cheaper, less hyped alternatives. It's important to do your research and not fall for these marketing ploys.

One common scam is the "method" approach, where a random list of instructions is given to sell a particular brand of shampoo. In reality, it is the shampoo that they are trying to sell, and the method is just a ploy to make you believe you are doing something effective.

Many people who claim to have passed a drug test using a particular method or shampoo aka SCAMPOO may have had light use and did not actually need any special treatment. It's important to be skeptical and look for legitimate evidence of effectiveness, such as lab results before and after using a product.

One company that offers a legitimate solution is Hair Razor Detox. They offer consultations to determine your individual needs and a four step treatment process that is designed to metabolize all drugs. They also provide pre and post lab results from actual users to prove the effectiveness of their product.

Don't fall for scams and false promises. Do your research and choose a legitimate solution for your drug detox needs.

How Scampoo sellers use shady " methods" to sell you bogus aloe shampoo

This is how it goes,   you either are a regular user of drug X or your the guy who takes a hit off friends joint on Saturday night and then days later you get hit with a drug test. Then you go into panic mode and jump online and start buying the first thing you come across which is going to be who ever has the most MASS MARKETING. 

 You may end up with a couple or more products that are basically the same and you have no clue even when you read the ingredients are the same.. SEE BREAKDOWN OF ALOE RID INGREDIENTS

You get sold on CLAIMS called MARKETING  . 

If ingredients are same as SUAVE well people,  why did you pay 150.00 to 200.00 for shampoo ?   and if you think Propelyne glycol is magic you are wrong its in everything its a wetting agent it does NOTHING to drug metabolites. This is the oldest scam LIE in the hair detox business . its a old ass LIE and it needs to DIE.

All the METHODS promote one of these shampoo products.  ITS THE SHAMPOO they are selling the method is their to try to actual DO SOMETHING .

 SO  if the magic aloe shampoo is so great why do you need zit wash and laudry detergent ? 

 

 Here is another FACT you dont know.  THC does not cross over to hair easy .

MOST OF  THESE PEOPLE ONLINE CLAIMING THEY PASSED FROM THIS METHOD OR THAT SHAMPOO ALL HAVE LIGHT USE  AND DID NOT NEED ANYTHING ... Yet they pass and go around infecting the internet with this falsehood  literally the blind leading the blind .

  HAave you ever seen lab result from these people who claim they used a shampoo or method showing actual legit use levels and then AFTER using product X showing a negative LAB result ?  

NO,  so they are only a METHOD of taking your money . 

See  Different drugs require different approaches different chemicals to treat and none of them are in shampoos. why fry your head on a method if your not dirty or using the wrong random list of stuff for what you used ? 

 

 THIS PERSON PERFORMED MAC METHOD FOR A MONTH AND THIS IS RESULTS 

Cocaine ­ Positive 8127 pg/mg   

Codeine ­ Positive 1650 pg/mg 

 THC Metabolite ­ Positive 9.94 pg/mg

Look I’ll be honest, the only thing that’ll really clean your hair is something that will alter the hair entirely, by bleaching it, lol this is just some regular perm smelling shampoo, way overpriced. I didn’t even take the chance, just tell your employer before the test that you found another job, and try to reapply later or just flat out stay clean for 3 months, unless you got plenty of time to bleach your hair and then die it back to normal, that still might not be enough. I got it out of fear and later accepted the reality. Didn’t even try to defy science.

Didn’t even pass my drug test and I did all the extra steps with tide, baking soda, clean n clear and I still failed the hair test for thc. I was so mad! Than the product comes with a label that says no returns ..probably because it doesn’t even work! And the cost of it just to need extra things to use with it is ridiculous. It dried out my hair like crazy and the smell sucks. Worst product ever.

I did the "method" with this shampoo , washed and soaked with vinegar, acne cleanse, aloe rid, tide, at least 15 times even added peroxide soak and the addition cleansing shampoo/ purifier/ and conditioner and I failed my hair test. Luckily i paid for my own hair test before taking a employment test because if I had not , my career would had ended and all college would have been useless bc this generic aloe rid is exactly Generic and does not work what so ever. I highly advise Not buying this product and just cut your hair short and allow it to grow to test length before testing.

Additionally none of them do  consultations to see IF YOU EVEN NEED IT  or how many treatments for YOUR HISTORY . it doesn't work that way when you have a LEGIT PRODUCT . 

ONLY ONE Hair Razor Detox   does  Hair testing consultations like this and only Hair Razor can show pre and post lab results BY USERS to prove it does what it claims.  

Hair Razor Detox is not a scampoo  its a four step process formulated to metabolize ALL DRUGS. A actual treatment plan for YOUR USE HISTORY,  thus why you need a consultation  to get proper number of treatments needed to pass like all these people who sent in their lab results and reviews  .
