Shes super freaked and literally all she has taken in the past 90 days in .25mg of clonazepam and 5mg of hydrocodone? Any chance this would actually cause her to fail.. seems ridiculously low...

The hair test is the most accurate test for drug use.
What is this test for?
I'm sure it shows the frequency of use and the amount? If I remember correctly the metabolites your body creates after consuming the drugs gets caught in the hair follicles and it's embedded in the hair.
Just what I know, I may be wrong.
-
More info please?
How long ago did she take each thing? When is she taking the test?
Some shampoos are purported to help, maybe look into that.

Not being funny, but whats to prevent someone who takes drugs shaving all of their off just before the test? Would a hair test still be able to take place?
I was just thinking if you don't want to fail, this could be a reasonable compromise. ::)

I believe that may cause an automatic fail if they know that you had a full head of air.
They can still take hair from anywhere else though.

Its for employment, in the last 90days ALL she has taken is 1, .25mg clonazepam and 1 5mg hydrocodone. Seems too little to fail to me, but all I can find is threshold in ug/ml or whatever, need some sort of chart that actually shows use levels to pass.. if any exists. I can't imagine that taking one prescription drug in 90 days is a fail..
-
If that's ALL she's taken, she'll be fine. The levels in her hair would be much too little to detect for "drug use" even if they're using a gc/ms.
-
Any data or site to back that up?
-
If it was for a dude I would say cut your hair to about an inch. but I guess that won't work. When I had to take hair tests was the soberest period of my entire life.

"Let me shave all my hair off before the hair-drugtest! They will *never* expect that, and they won't be able to test me in any other way!" - Just by shaving you would admit to attempting to hide drug use, and you would look like Britney Spears.
-
and you would look like Britney Spears.
which is more a less a declaration of being on drugs
-
Just for anyone who references this thread in the future, she passed.
-
Yay glad to hear it. Damn the man!

My speculation is that since in test is testing use over a 90 day period, approx 1.5 inches of hair closest to the scalp. A single small use would probably not bring you over threshold. I have no data to back this up however.
I would check to see what labs are nearby, what their standard tests are. I know that specific labs near me will test for things others might not in a standard test. Point being, tests vary some from lab to lab.
