How long do drugs stay in the hair?
Hair Follicle drug testing is an effective method of screening for drugs of abuse. When a person uses drugs, they are absorbed into their bloodstream. Hair follicles are nourished by blood vessels so as the hair grows, the drugs in a person's system get into the hair. Those substances remain in the hair until it is cut. Testing a hair sample can give a much longer detection method than other common types of drug testing such as urine or blood. Most standard hair tests look at the inch and half to two inches of hair closest to the root. For most people, this is about 3 months' worth of hair growth so the test can tell if a person had drugs in their system in the past 90 days.
