How far back do Hair Follicle Tests ACTUALLY go?

 

The misunderstood 90 days  thing 

  

You do not simply wait 90 days from last use and then your ok to take a hair follicle test. 

 

You see if your trying to grow out your hair to take a test naturally , you first need to detox so nothing is adding to the (1.5" or 3 months) hair window of collection. For all drugs except THC this takes  a week , for THC it can be a week or 4 month depending on use and weight / activity level.

 Then after detox ( plus 10 days to grow last dirty part to scalp ) THEN you can grow naturally clean hair. So at MInimum that 1 month AFTER system i sclean plus ten days.

The 90 day thing is how long they see back at the 1.5" of hair THEY KEEP. longer hair is discarded as they retain  1.5" from scalp for testing.

SO if it takes you 2 months to detox from your level of use you then need 3 months to grow 1.5" of clean hair and it is a 5 month process not 90 days .

All drugs are 4 days from last use plus 10 days to grow out.  EXCEPT retread THC and COCAINE which MIGRATES in hair . meaning coke at 4 months ago in hair will show in  more recent hair although at lower levels.  so just because no coke use in 90 days  doesnt mean you OK , again you still have to grow clean hair and if you have ANY old hair with coke it will migrate to new clean hair . 

So if you do not have 6  months to be sure that you grew it all out and have a clean window for collection you can simply get a Hair Razor Consultation and treat it based on your use and time ( which can be done in average of a week depending on use history ) . Yes it is permanent if your clean when you treat it .

Hair Razor Detox has been around years and is not some bogus Aloe shampoo or sketchy "method" of random items that fry your hair and are only used to sell you that worthless aloe shampoo.  It is proven and testified to by hundreds of users with reviews and  lab results over many years . 

DELTA 8 testing positive in Urine but not in Hair

 

DELTA 8

 Testing positive in Urine but not in Hair

 

Let me explain the situation regarding self-tests and the detection of Delta 8 and THC. Self-tests, such as basic ELISA enzyme reagent tests, are commonly used for initial screenings. However, if a positive result is obtained, it needs to be confirmed using a Mass spectrometer. The Mass spectrometer is a highly accurate method to determine if a detected substance is present and identify the specific metabolite.

When it comes to self-tests, they typically classify Delta 8 as THC 9, which is the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis. Therefore, relying on a self-test to determine THC levels when using Delta 8 products is not meaningful, as it may lead to false conclusions.

If Delta 8 is legally sold and permissible in your region, consuming Delta 8 products should not result in a failed THC test. This is because Delta 8 is a distinct compound from THC 9, and the Mass spectrometer with CURRENT ABILITY to distinguish between the two are still rare . 

 

The following was supplied by independent redditer with lab results showing hair was clean while testing hot MONTHS later from delta 8 products  on a urine self test .

THIS RESULT WAS FOR  THIS LAB NOT MENTIONED  SEE NOTATION AT BOTTOM REGARDING FAILED TEST FOR DELTA 8 

 

 This shows the issue of testing positive with cheap self test THC  which seem to not be able to differentiate from THC 9

Drug Test

Wanted to post the results I got back today for my personal hair drug test, since it seems like this might be helpful for some people.

I have a extremely good job opportunity at place that does hair follicle sample testing (in manufacturing industry but applying for a software related job at the company). I take maybe 3-4 25mg Delta 8 THC gummies a week, and at least once a week I take a Delta 9 THC 10mg gummy. I’ve been doing this a little under year. I buy the gummies from a local store & distributor that provides COA ( d8 gummies, d9 ones) for their products.

Reading online and seeing a lot of people fail drug test while using ONLY Delta 8, freaked me out enough that thought for sure I would fail too with my frequency of usage, so I bought a home mail in hair drug tests to confirm. I also ordered a ton of the cleaners and shampoos since I assumed I would have to use them.

I took a sample without using any products (just my mid week normal hair routine) and sent it in 04/29, arrived at the lab 05/03, and finally got my results on 05/10. I checked the portal each day to see if the results were up since i didn’t trust the site to actually send an email when they came in (I was right, they didn’t lol).

I ended up negative for everything which really surprised me. I do take Prozac and Wellbutrin XL, so I’m not sure if those had any interference but I highly doubt it.

I only buy gummies from the same local brand, so it makes me think that as long as a manufacturer’s products are quality, standardized, and conform to the Farm Bill with the federal Delta 9 THC limit under 0.03 %, then you will likely pass a drug test that uses GC/MS for confirmation. It possible that you might be marked initially positive but further testing using GC/MS should show that it was flagged for THC, but not Delta 9 THC, which is what is being looked for. I can only speak for the hair test, but also wanted to add that the at home urine tests I bought on amazon was still getting positive for THC on the test after stopping a month and a half ago. This was after my hair sample was sent in.

YMMV but wanted to post my results in case someone is in a similar situation. Feel free to correct me on anything I might have gotten wrong

 

 

 

 HOWEVER    we have found that the labs who have the ability  to discern between delta 8 and thc 9 are few  and thus it is a risk 

a redditer who commented on the subject stated 

Through disa, delta 8 and all the other smoke shop shit will most certainly cause you to fail. I know several people personally, from my previous employer, who got fired from 10+ year long careers over it. The smoke shops claim it won't show up but it will. 2 weeks of use took me 2 months to pass a piss test for thc with tons of activity, lots of water and cranberry juice etc...back in my days of regular bud I could clean up in 2 weeks. The smoke shop shit is a joke and the people selling are fucking clueless about it. It is causing a lot of issues with people where I am losing careers over it because you can pick up a candy bar and a delta pen at the corner store not realizing you won't pass a drug test.

 

 

 

Naild' It the solution to fingernail drug testing

 

Naild' It the solution to removing toxins from fingernails

 A novel method of evasive drug testing has emerged in the form of the finger nail test.

To perform this test, a sample is collected by either clipping or scraping the nails. Clipping the tips yields a larger amount of material, which can indicate drug use from further back in time. On the other hand, scraping provides a general window of drug use over the past 2-3 months.

A 3-mm nail sample can reveal drug exposure for around 3 to 6 months after use. When drugs enter the blood vessels, they end up in the nail matrix of keratin, where they become trapped and grow out with the nail.

Some people believe that trimming their nails will enable them to evade the test, but they soon realize that doing so only results in scraping a larger amount of material. This presents use from a more recent period .

If the nails are longer, 3+ mm off the tip, little to no scraping is needed. Depending on the frequency of drug use, it may be more helpful to let the nails grow longer to collect more material from the tips instead of relying on scraping. Longer nails also makes it easy to treat with Naild' It.

Fingernails and hair are composed of the same material, keratin. Substances can pass from the blood vessels beneath the nail into the keratin fibers where they become trapped as the nail grows. Fingernails are four times thicker than a typical hair strand, and thus, they can capture more of a substance. 

Beyond their captivating growth mechanism, nails harbor a secret repository for drug metabolites, clandestinely preserving traces of drug usage for extended periods. Enter Naild' It, a groundbreaking creation from the masterminds behind the preeminent hair metabolizing treatment, HAIR RAZOR DETOX. Borne out of technological prowess and scientific ingenuity, Naild' It stands as a revolutionary product, deploying potent oxidizing and metabolizing agents to obliterate any lingering drug metabolites.

The procedure entails a dual-phase application, necessitating multiple daily administrations. The initial step entails a gentle relaxation of the keratin matrix, paving the way for the subsequent application of the formidable oxidizing and metabolizing agents. The aftermath is a glorious revelation – immaculate and robust nails, unshackled from the clutches of harmful toxins or drug metabolites. one can have drug metabolite-free nails within about a week.

 

The creators of the successful Hair Razor detox have developed a new two-part nail detox product called Naild' it Detox for nail testing. Embrace this cutting-edge solution at the inaugural price of $25.00, a limited-time offer for the year 2023. Embark on this transformative journey today, and bear witness to the remarkable metamorphosis firsthand! 

 

While fingernail testing is not commonly used for drug testing, there are situations where it is the most suitable option. Fingernail and toenail specimens provide information about drug exposure over extended periods, measured in months rather than days or hours, unlike urine or oral fluid samples. Drugs can be detected in nail clippings starting from two to four weeks after ingestion. Combining fingernail clippings with nail shavings can reveal a collective history of drug exposure of approximately 6 months, and when combined with toenails, up to 12 months.

 In contrast, urine testing for drugs like cocaine can only detect prior drug exposure within the last three days. Each specimen type has its own specific detection period, ranging from a few hours to 12 months. Fingernail and toenail testing, like urine and hair drug screens, is available in multiple drug test panels.

The same drugs that can be detected in urine, oral fluid, and hair samples can also be identified in nails. This means that even if an employee or candidate shows up for their drug test completely bald and with their body shaved, an accurate test can still be conducted.

Just got my results back from an etg+5 panel nail screen.
All came back negative, used about 2-3 grams of cocaine, and drank pretty heavily in December around Christmas. Just used it as directed.  I did two 20 min sessions per day for a week before the test and a final session the morning of.
