Studies have shown that head hair grows approximately 1cm per month. This growth rate varies slightly (estimated at +/- 0.2cm per month). Standard screening tests cover approximately 90-day periods (3cm); however a more detailed month-by-month analysis can be performed by testing individual 1cm sections enabling a historic record to be established as far back as the hair sample will allow. Please note that body hair samples cannot be segmented.
