heli drug screen
"Heli follicle testing is quite accurate and can go back 6 months or longer, showing any controlled substances used in a sort of timeline. As heli grows out, any drugs used are encased in the heli shaft, so the longer the heli, the longer back in the individual's drug history the lab can detect. Most legitimate testing facilities, however, only use heli within about 3-5 cm of the scalp, and discard the rest. This limits the detection history to about 90 days, depending upon the rate of growth of the individual's heli. Some people attempt to circumvent this through shaving their heads. In the absence of the required amount of heli on the scalp, body heli can be used as an acceptable substitute. Additionally, for pre-employment heli testing, the inability to obtain a sample may be grounds for not hiring the individual."
