will toxin wash remove my hair dye...for drug test??

I have a drug test and was considering buying the toxin wash, but will it remove my hairdye? I know at this point the job is more important, just wondering?

Re: will toxin wash remove my hair dye...for drug test??

  • I am stunned at this question to formualte a proper response.

    See what google says...

  • Check out their website.
  • I took one puff 2 mos ago. The website didn't say anything about stripping hair dye, and when i google it, i can't find anything.

    I find this post oddly refreshing given the repetitive nature of so many posts on this board.  Can't say we get many asking how to fool a drug test!

  • They're going to do a urine test more then likely, not a hair tes so I wouldn't bother.
  • I think it would be best just to shave your head. That's the only way to make sure you don't get caught.

    Hmm 

  • Those things do not work. You can't "wash" it out of your hair. Ditto for the urine cleansing things, they make it obvious that you're trying to hide something. A better route would be to not use illegal drugs when you know you'll be looking for employment.

  • The drug presence in your hair is not a residue that you can "wash out". It's part of the structure of the hair.

    Says someone who worked in an HR department that did hair drug testing for over 4,000 employees in Atlantic City.

  • What kind of job are you applying for?  If it's for the DEA I think your screwed.

    Honestly though did you really have one puff or a night of drugs and booze.  It's going to make a huge difference.

  • Using drugs when job searching is dumb. With that said, if it was legitimately just one puff then you shouldn't test positive anyhow.
  • LOL.  Is this a joke??

    umm, and anywhere else there is hair...

    Hmm 

    This. Shave every inch of your body and wear a human hair wig.

    Hope that helps!

  • I don't think those toxin washes work. Besides, "one puff two months ago" will be long gone out of your system by now. Hell, several puffs two months ago will be long gone out of your system. From what I remember, it takes about a month for a significant amount of marijuana to clear your system (assuming that's what you were "puffing.")

    Highly amused by this post... and agree with the others. Just say "no" - at least while you're job hunting. :)

    Not true. It is "built into" your hair and that's how hair-testing works. The chemical make-up of your hair actually incorporates the drug, and the toxin washes can't get rid of it. Which means if your hair was on your head 2 months ago when you puffed, you've got the drug in your hair. It may leave your body system but not your hair.

    Interesting... I learned something new today.

    Welp, all the more reason to "just say no."
