What's included in my test?

Listed within your test results will be any items that have shown a positive match of 85% and over.

After performing thousands of tests, we have defined 85% to be the point at which you may experience discomfort from a catalyst. Because of this, we do not store any data that falls below the 85% threshold.

How do I take a hair sample?

1. Brush your hair upwards to reveal the root area at the back of your head.

2. Then holding a small amount of hair between your thumb and finger, cut the hair as close to the scalp as possible (without drawing blood.)

Please note: The safest way to take a hair sample is to ask someone else to assist you.

How much hair do I have to provide?

Please provide us with a small amount of hair. 3-4 individual hairs will allow us to successfully complete the test.

We do not require clumps of hair.

My hair is very short, can you still complete the tests?

Your hair sample does not have to come from your head. We can test hair from other parts of the body including leg, arm or chest.

My hair is dyed, will this affect the result?

This will not have any effect on the results of the test. The test is completed on the composition of the hair sample, so the colour will not effect this.

I have not purchased from the internet before, how can I be certain you will complete and send out the tests?

We are a verified company with Paypal, we use them as they guarantee you against internet fraud. We include our address on the Paypal receipt, email address and phone number so you can contact us if you have any concerns.

Why are your prices so low?

We save in areas such as packaging, postage and stationery and deliver your results via email to help us focus the costs into the test itself.

Is there anything additional to pay?

You are responsible for all costs associated with the carriage of your hair sample to our UK processing unit.

Please ensure the correct postage amount has been paid as we are not liable for any extra charges.

Can you do a test on my child?

To offer accurate testing, we do not test children under the age of 5 for hair testing. This is due to a child’s system changing when they are younger which can cause more adverse reactions whilst young.
