Cons

False positive Hair drug test when people aren’t doing drugs. All Hair Tests that were stated positive while other test such as urine and alcohol test started 0.00%. Many have challenge this test and paid $150.00 just to be told the same thing which is a lie. This was so unethical and the company will have to pay for these actions.
