Ok bleaching and coloring your hair does not work to pass a drug test. Fact. I am a cosmetologist and if you understood the way your hair stores color and drugs you would realize that bleaching/coloring your hair does not alter the center of you hair which is where drugs tend to store themselves. When you go to a shop to get your hair colored the stylist will use 10 volume, 20 volume, 30 volume, or 40 volume depending on what the stylist wants to do to your hair. The peroxide is used to lift the cuticle on you hair shaft and force color into your hair or to remove color depending on what you are wanting to do. Peroxide will not remove any chemicals or things of that nature that store themselves in the medulla of your hair.
