A member asked:
How long does alcohol stay in a hair folicle test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Alcohol Detection: For a very long time. That is the simple answer. Of course, it depends on how much one has been drinking, how long the hair is; etc. You probably should assume that if your hair has not been cut since your last drink it will be positive.
