Specimen

The hair alcohol test requires 90 to 120 strands of head hair that is also 1 ½ inches to 2 inches in length. Body hair collection options include underarm hair, chest hair, leg hair, facial hair, forearm hair, back hair, and sometimes pubic hair. It is not uncommon for us to get requests for a hair test for drugs and alcohol. These are actually two hair tests. If you need both, you will need an additional 90 to 120 strands for all hair panels below the 10-panel hair drug test. Larger panels, such as 12 panel hair follicle test, require about double the sample amount (double 90 to 120 strands of head hair that is also 1 ½ inches to 2 inches in length or body hair.) In some cases, if you do not have a lot of hair and you need a hair alcohol test plus one of our largest panels, such as the 17 panel, we may want to discuss your head and body hair situation and request that the lab collect one body hair and one head hair collection. (If head hair is too short, see 30-day hair follicle drug test (17 panel) or 60-day hair follicle drug test (17 panel) or fingernail drug test.)

Detection time:

The hair drug and alcohol tests have a detection time of an estimated 90 days from potential usage. Until recently, the only detection time for hair alcohol ETG testing was 90 days. However, AMH is pleased to offer extended detection times for hair alcohol testing in increments of 30, 60, and 90 day segments! As long as your hair is the appropriate length, we can order a 6 month, 9 month, 1 year alcohol ETG test (etc). We also offer shortened detection times, at-home anonymous ETG testing and drug and alcohol panels.

Price:

The price for the hair follicle drug test for alcohol can change depending on which drug test locations are available in your area. Call customer service, and we can give you a price quote; however, prices on our hair follicle test for alcohol are normally better or the best price in the area.

Methodology:

EIA (homogenous) or Elisa (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) (heterogeneous)  screening technology; LCMS (Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry)

Clinical applications:

There are 90-day (3-month hair test) extended detection times when compared to drug testing by urine, and blood allows for observed hair collection when adulteration of urine sample is suspected. These hair follicle tests for alcohol can clarify confusing or conflicting results for pre-employment and probation, including urine drug test results or repeated dilute samples; helpful with false positive scram monitors and other alcohol monitoring systems; court-ordered hair drug testing; hair drug testing for child custody and divorce cases; testing for child or loved one; post-rehab testing; difficult or impossible to adulterate.

Limitations general:

The ETG hair follicle test takes roughly 5 to 10 days for drug use to show in a hair sample.

Possible processing laboratory options:

Laboratory Corporation of America (Labcorp); United States Drug Testing Laboratory (USDTL)

FAQ

What is the alcohol hair follicle test commonly used for?

The alcohol hair follicle drug test is commonly the next test for an individual who has received a false positive alcohol test.

Can you cheat an alcohol hair follicle test?

Alcohol hair follicle tests are impossible to cheat. This is because of the way they are conducted. A hair follicle test concentrates on the inner part of the hair shaft, as this is where metabolites, the evidence of alcohol use, are stored.

Can I contact you if I have received a false positive on a SCRAM monitor?

Yes; we receive many calls from those who received a false positive for alcohol on a SCRAM monitor. We have also received calls from those whose SCRAM monitors have evidence of tampering. People who use alcohol monitoring systems other than the SCRAM monitor also call us when they have received a false positive.

I have an upcoming court date. Can I use the alcohol hair follicle test?

Yes; individuals, lawyers, and various other professionals often choose the alcohol hair follicle test to confirm results after a false positive or tampering of a SCRAM monitor or other similar monitoring system. The alcohol hair follicle drug test is also the one to choose if you were or another person was ordered by the court to undergo hair drug testing.

I am currently involved in a child custody case. How is the alcohol hair follicle drug test used in family court?

If the court has found that there are reasonable grounds to test for alcohol, they will typically order the alcohol hair follicle drug test for one or both parents. The results of the alcohol hair follicle drug test will usually affect the custody of a child. It can cause a non-custodial parent to lose their rights to visitation with the child. In the case of a positive alcohol hair follicle drug test in a custodial parent, a family court may order a child removed from custody, and the parent must complete a rehabilitation program for alcohol abuse.

What is a typical alcohol hair test price?

The price for a typical alcohol hair test can not only be quite high, but can also vary greatly, depending on the testing company you are considering. We have seen prices for alcohol hair tests of $500, $600, or even $700. We generally have a much better price for this test which is usually between $275 to $350.

Why should I choose AMH Nationwide instead of other drug testing companies?

The vast differences in pricing for alcohol hair testing is one reason to choose us. Although prices have changed and do vary with other testing companies, we have been able to maintain pricing that’s consistently low. Our collection facilities are located across the country, giving our customers access that’s always local and convenient. Because we have access to four of the country’s major lab networks, our test result accuracy is both high and reliable. In addition to volume-based discounts, our pricing includes medical review and confirmation testing.

Can I do a hair alcohol test using body hair?

Yes, we can do a hair alcohol test using body hair. Some locations will need us to make special arrangements in order to do this test using body hair. If you are working with a restricted timeline make sure to register as soon as possible so that you can receive your results in a timely fashion.

Can I test for drugs and alcohol on one ETG hair test?

The ETG hair test and drug test have to be ordered separately. When registering for a urine drug test, drugs and alcohol can be tested together, but there isn’t a lab that will do this using hair.
