    Permed hair and pregnancy hormones should have no affect on the efficiency of a hair stand test for alcohol.

    They are very reliable and while costly,they produce very accurate results.Showing drug or alcohol use from as long ago as three months.

    If you are pregnant you should be avoiding all alcohol,it is very dangerous to your unborn baby.
