How Hair Drug Testing Works

Understanding how a hair follicle drug test works can ease a lot of worry. During this type of test, a small sample of hair is collected and sent for lab analysis. The lab looks for drug metabolites that are stored inside the hair shaft, which provides a picture of possible substance use over a longer period of time than many other testing methods.

Head Hair vs. Body Hair Detection Window

For head hair, the detection window typically reaches back around 90 days, based on the length of the hair collected. If body hair is used instead, the look-back period can be longer because body hair tends to grow more slowly. This longer window is one reason hair testing is often requested in situations that require ongoing monitoring or a review of past behavior rather than only very recent use.

Hair Drug Test Panels

Our lab can arrange panels that screen for a wide range of common substances, and in many cases, less common ones as well. Hair drug testing is valued because collection is simple, it is very difficult to tamper with a properly collected sample, and the testing process has a strong reputation for consistency. When we collect your hair sample, we follow set procedures for labeling and sealing so that the chain of custody stays clear from our hands to the laboratory.

What to Expect During Your Hair Testing Appointment

Simple Check-In Process

Coming in for a hair drug test may feel stressful if you have never done it before. Knowing exactly what will happen can make the visit much easier. When you arrive at our Anaheim testing center, a team member will welcome you, check your identification, and confirm any paperwork or instructions you have been given by an employer, attorney, or agency.

Private and Comfortable Sample Collection

Once you are checked in, you are typically called back quickly. Our certified collector explains the process and answers basic questions about what will happen in the collection room. For a standard head hair collection, a small amount of hair is cut from close to the scalp in an area that is as discreet as possible. We aim to collect just enough hair for accurate testing while keeping your appearance in mind.

Secure Sample Handling, Analysis, and Results

After the sample is collected, it is packaged, labeled, and documented according to our procedures. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis. Result timing can vary based on the type of panel requested and the volume of testing at that time, and our team will let you know what is typical for your situation. When results are ready, they are reported according to the instructions tied to your test, which may include sending them directly to an employer, agency, or designated contact.

Hair Drug Testing for Different Needs

People come to our Anaheim location for hair testing for many reasons. We understand that each situation carries its own pressure and expectations, so we tailor our support and communication to the kind of test you need.

Employers & Workplace Programs

Many employers in the area use hair testing for pre-employment screening, random testing, or follow-up programs when they want a longer look at potential drug use. We work with small businesses and larger organizations that value a consistent, documented process. Our team can help you choose panels that align with your policy and schedule testing in a way that limits disruption to your operations.

Because our wait times are typically short, your team members can come in, complete their tests, and return to work with minimal downtime. We also support companies that want to build or refine written drug testing policies, and we can integrate hair testing as one piece of a broader program that may include other types of testing when appropriate.

Legal, Court, & Agency Testing

Attorneys, probation officers, and social service agencies often need reliable documentation of substance use over time. Hair drug testing can be a helpful tool in these settings because of its extended detection window. At our Anaheim facility, we follow strict collection and documentation steps so that the path from donor to lab results is clearly recorded.

When you or your client test with us, we explain the process, verify identification carefully, and record the details required for proper reporting. Our goal is to provide results that agencies and legal professionals can review with confidence, while still treating every individual with dignity throughout the visit.

Individuals & Families

Some people choose hair testing on their own, without an employer or court order. Parents may request testing when they have concerns, or individuals in recovery may want an ongoing record of sobriety. In these cases, we offer the same professional collection process and secure handling that we use for workplace and legal testing.

We understand that personal testing can feel emotional. Our staff focuses on clear explanations and a calm environment so you know exactly what is happening. You can discuss how you would like your results delivered, and our team will explain what your particular panel can and cannot show over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far back will a hair drug test show drug use?

A hair drug test typically shows possible drug use over a period of about 90 days when head hair is used. This is based on the length of the hair sample and the rate at which hair grows. If body hair is collected instead, the look back window can be longer because body hair often grows more slowly. The exact period that can be reviewed depends on factors such as where the hair comes from and how long it is. Our team can explain what your specific test panel and sample type are designed to detect.

What happens during my hair drug test appointment?

During your appointment, you check in at our front desk, show a valid form of identification, and provide any paperwork related to your test. One of our certified collectors then brings you to a collection area and explains how the sample will be taken. For most tests, we cut a small lock of hair close to the scalp from a place that is as discreet as we can make it. After collection, we package, label, and document the sample, then send it to the laboratory for analysis. The entire visit is usually brief, and our staff focuses on your privacy and comfort throughout.

Can I still test if my hair is very short or shaved?

In many cases, testing is still possible even if your head hair is very short or shaved. Hair drug testing usually requires hair of at least a minimal length so that the lab can perform the analysis, but collectors can sometimes use body hair if head hair is not available. The options depend on how much hair is present and where it is located. When you arrive at our Anaheim facility, our collector will take a look and explain what options are available in your situation and whether they meet the requirements of the party ordering the test.

How quickly will I get my hair test results?

The timing for hair test results depends on the type of panel ordered and the laboratory workload. Many standard panels are completed within a few business days, although more complex panels or confirmation testing can take longer. When you check in, our team will share what is typical for the type of hair drug testing you are completing. Once the lab finishes the analysis, results are sent following the reporting instructions on your order, which may include direct delivery to an employer, agency, or other designated recipient.

Will my employer or probation officer receive the results directly?

In many employment and court-related situations, results are sent directly to the employer, probation officer, or agency that requested the test. This is usually outlined in the paperwork you bring with you or in the instructions we receive from the ordering party. During check in, we confirm where results should be delivered and make sure the reporting information is complete. Our team treats your test information as confidential and only shares results according to the directions tied to your specific order and any applicable privacy rules.

Do I need an appointment for a hair drug test, or can I walk in?

We can often accommodate both scheduled visits and walk-ins for hair testing at our Anaheim location. Scheduling ahead can help you plan around work or court times and may shorten your overall visit. However, if you are under time pressure, you can typically come in during posted hour,s and our team will work to see you as quickly as possible. If you have very specific timing requirements, calling ahead can help us suggest the best time to arrive.

What kinds of drugs can you detect with a hair test?

Hair testing can be set up to look for a wide range of substances, including many commonly abused drugs. Employers and agencies often choose panels that include several categories so they can review more than one substance type at once. At Fastest Labs of Anaheim, we offer different panel options and can help match the test to the requirements on your paperwork or policy. If you have questions about whether a particular substance is included in your panel, our staff can explain what your ordered test covers before collection.
