Update: Well, the test is taken. Now the wait.
*EDIT*
I had a few people ask about my hair test so here is the info about my experience. MY EXPERIENCE IS NOT REPRESENTATIVE OF WHAT YOURS MAY BE LIKE! I just want to make that clear in case someone comes back and says that their test wasn't like mine and thinks I gave them bad information. Just for clarification, my sample will be tested by Quest Diagnostics.
When I went in, they greeted me and took my photo ID to verify I was me
Anyway, they took me back to a small office where they sat me down in a blood sampling chair and the doc wrote down information from my license onto the screening paperwork. Next, he walked behind the chair, pulled back some hair 1/2 way between the top of my head and the bottom of my hair cut. He put a hairclip in my hair to hold my hair back and took the sample.
The sample, surprisingly, was not right to the scalp. My girl took a left over hair from the cut and we measured it (not including the folicle or the hair below the surface...we marked it with a perm marker) as a little over 1/5th of an inch left. We measured and found it was a 4 1/2" strip of hair horizontally (easily hidden by the hair above) and a really thin line vertically (less than 1/8 inch)
He had me sign and date the sealed sample bag, verify the bag's number to the information form and then put my signature, DOB, phone #, and address on the information form.
As a side note, the guy was a bit rude. He asked (so much fake interest in his voice I nearly laughed at his attempt to make small talk) how my day was going, and when I decided to play along and tell him my plans for the day (heading to the lakes) he just grunted. Anyway, my results should be back in
