    Hair follicle drug testing
    Even though I use marijuana is it true I can quit and use products like aloe rid and ultra cleanse to pass a hair follicle drug test?

    Nope. Sorry.

    Drug testing labs now check for chemicals used in the hair to see if you've tried to "cleanse" it, and if they find any, they will fail the test regardless.

    Aloe won't do anything for your hair except possibly make it softer.

    Like everyone has mentioned, Nope, testing has gotten a lot more percise. It goes back 90 days and now is generally tamper proof, it takes approximately5 days for drugs to show up on a persons hair, but the new hair growth for the next 90 days will have trace amounts of the drugs. Since it takes multiple uses to test positive, and metabolites are checked when possible-- it is pretty much impossible to test positive from passive exposure on a limited basis. Drugs are incorporated into the hair shaft from the bloodstream.
