Hair testing for drugs of abuse looks for evidence of substance use over a longer window than blood or urine testing. Because compounds and their metabolites are deposited in the hair shaft as it grows, a hair sample can reflect exposures that occurred weeks to months before collection. This seven-panel hair drug test screens for a defined set of commonly detected substances, giving a broad but structured view of recent history rather than a single point-in-time snapshot.

About 7 Panel Drug Test (Drugs of Abuse Testing), Hair in San Francisco

A hair drug test relies on the way the body incorporates drugs and their breakdown products into growing hair.

As hair forms in the follicle, trace amounts of drugs and metabolites can become trapped within the keratin structure. Once the hair emerges from the scalp, that record remains relatively stable, which is why hair is often chosen when a longer detection window is needed.

The seven-panel format refers to the number of drug groups or analytes included in the screen. A typical panel covers classes such as amphetamines, cocaine, opiates, phencyclidine, and marijuana, though the exact list can vary by laboratory. The panel name reflects the scope of the screen, not a guarantee that every possible substance is detected.

Collection is straightforward. A small sample of hair, usually cut close to the scalp, is sent to the laboratory for analysis. Turnaround is generally one to three business days after the specimen arrives. Preparation is minimal, and following the lab's instructions helps ensure the sample is handled correctly.
