Hair testing for drugs in custody case?

My friend has a three month old daughter and is trying to get full custody from her ex, who she left because he was an alcoholic and smoked pot. She is freaking out bc he coerced her to take ecstasy one time and thinks he might try to get the court to take a hair sample to prove it. Her ex has always buzzed his hair so he doesn't have to worry. She took it about four months before she was pregnant but wants to cut her hair really short before their next court date so he can't do that.





I told her I don't think they would take her hair but I don't know. Should she cut her hair?Hair testing for drugs in custody case?
Even if he buzzes his hair they will find hair somewhere in the body, legs, ***, arms, anything. Trust me my ex shaved his head but they still found other hair they can use.Hair testing for drugs in custody case?
Usually they won't do something that drastic unless the other party is going to pay for it. If her ex isn't willing to fork out that money, they won't do the test. On top of that, the majority of the time, they only go back a certain amount of time (usually 3-6 months). I wouldn't go as far as to cut all my hair off because it isn't likely that they will do a hair test and even if they do, they won't go back as far as when she did it.
tHAT IS TO LONG AGO THAT WON'T BE IN HER SYSTEM ANYMORE..DON'T WORRY
Now you know why Brittany Spears was hairless, top and bottom, for a while. But if you are going to try to defeat the hair test, you have to remove every bit of hair from the body.





The test only shows drugs taken into the body while the specific hair was growing. Unless your friend has really long hair, what she took more than a year ago, ( 4 months before preg ) isn't going to matter.
don't worry extacy only stays in her system for a few days...shell be ok..
I wouldn't worry about a drug test for this. Even if they did a hair test it would show when she took it.


Even if he shaves his head i promise he has hair other places they could us.


Don't bother with a hair cut if its really been a year. They don't normally do a hair drug test. and as I said, they do his also.



The answer is yes he can request a hair folicle test if he can raise suspision in the courts eye. However, most hair folicle tests only go back 120-180 days. And shaving your head wont do any good. Because the can take hair samples from anywhere on your body. nose eyelash eyebrow ear pubic aor armpit. Cutting hair will not only raise suspision but look bad as well. Tell her to hang tight. And if shes doing dope then she deserves to lose custody. Not so much she deserves to lose custody but that baby deserves better. Short of that her husband has to prove her unfit to raise a child to really have any kind of case.
