Hair 'detox' products. Any input?

[bill704]

Hello all, this is my first real post, so please bear with me.

I've done a lot of searching online and found pretty much no personal experiences with these so-called hair detox shampoos. I had to submit a hair sample for my previous/hopefully future employer, but couldn't find any advice as to which product to choose. (Heh, like I really had a choice, I was given a 2 day notice.) Anyway, I ended up using URN Luck's Get Clean Shampoo and am hoping it worked.

Which brings me to....

I'd like to suggest any reviews on these shampoos/conditioners. Based on my research, I'd like very much for that Santa person NOT to post. As everyone else said, communities need not be polluted with your blatent spam. And of course, I'll most certainly follow up about my experience.

So, any comments on the following products?

• Folli-Kleen Intense Hair Cleanser
• Get Clean Shampoo
• Ultra Cleanse Hair Cleansing Shampoo & Conditioner
• ZYDOT Ultra Clean Shampoo and Conditioner
• Toxin Wash Shampoo
• Omni Shampoo

Naturally, any others you might have tried but are not on the list are welcome as well. Perhaps not the right forum, but I'd like to hear of tried and tested home remedies.

Thank you for your time.

Im here not to excit you, or make you feel more confident about any of these products. For the truth is they DONT work. Everybody Ive known thats used a hair detox product has failed miserably.

That's interesting.... A good friend of mine's cousin had to give a sample for the bank she wanted to work for, and she swears that whatever product she used in fact worked.

I'm hoping to god it works for me... If I don't get my old job back I'm going to be working at a RadioShack. lol

Dont be to confident though bro...that way you wont be surprised if it doesnt work.

[bill704]

Yeah, can't really say that'd surprise me much... In fact, more the other way around. I think I'll piss myself with glee.

Product FAILED.


Just got off the phone with the guys and he informed me I was 2.5 (does that sound right?) over the minimum cut off.


Whether that's high or low I'm not too sure, but if you can figure it out I'll give some information which may or may not have affected that number:

• First off, I used that overpriced shampoo
• I'm on 3 prescribed medications:
  1. Concerta XR, (3) 36 mg pills in the morning
  2. Welbutrine XL, (1) 150 mg
  3. Sertraline (Zoloft generic), 150 mg
• My metabolism (without the Concerta) is very high. I'm approximately 5'8 and usually weighed 125-133 range, after the Concerta it is now 118 lbs.
• Last but not least, my marijuana use has been multiple times, daily.

The test was performed by Psychemedics Corp, a major name in the "drug testing" (marijuana user busting) industry.

I hope I can help anyone out with this info... It's at least a little documentation concerning 'detox shampoos.' Like I said, I searched the internet and saw it didn't work out for people--I just wanted to try it myself and be able to give a little more detailed of an experience.


....to add in real quick, the hair was taken from behind the head at the base of my skull. My hair's about 8 inches and about 6 of that has been dyed and bleeched many of times.

Thank you for your input on this issue. This has been an informative read.

Hello fellow 420ans!

This is my first post to this forum. I joined specifially to tell you about my experience with the hair detox products offered on the market today (in particular 'Toxin Wash').

First of all, I am a heavy smoker. I smoke everyday without fail. And not the middies.

Recently I was offered a job a very respectable company with one hell of a bonus program. It was the best job offer I have ever had. From the time of the initial call to the time I had to take my drug test was about 3 1/2 weeks. From the time I received the call I stopped smoking cold turkey, and, started researching detox products on the internet.

After 40 plus hours of intensive research on what product I should use, I came to the conclusion that the 'Toxin Wash' shampoo was my best bet. I followed the pre-treatment instructions to a "T". For 2 weeks before I used the treatment, I washed my hair with Nexxus' Aloe Rid. I thought all of this would have been sufficient.

It failed miserably.

Anyway, the moral of the story (and I know we all hate a story that begins with the word moral, but give me a chance) is:

THESE PRODUCTS DO NOT WORK!!! THEY ALL CONTAIN THE SAME ACTIVE INGREDIENT IN VARYING DEGREES. THEY MAY REMOVE A LOT OF THINGS. DRUG METABOLITES AREN'T ONE OF THEM. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME MESSING AROUND WITH THESE "DETOX REMEDIES"!!!!!! THEY ARE ALL SMOKE AND MIRRORS DESIGNED TO BILK YOU OUT OF YOUR MONEY.

WE ALL KNOW THAT THE ONLY WAY TO SUCCESSFULLY PASS A HAIR FOLLICLE TEST IS NOT TO USE.............PERIOD!!!!!!

We can all argue about one's rights to privacy and so forth. We can expose the facts supporting medical marijuana use. We can enlighten people as to the economical benefits of legalizing m-j completely. None of that matters in the here and now. Right now a positive result on a drug screen doesn't carry with it the compassion of the 63% of voters that voted "yes" on Michigans Medical Marijuana Law.

I am a qualified patient and caregiver. I should be able to do as necessary on my own time. We are no longer on our own time. We are all on Big Brother's clock whether we like it or not.

No matter how any of this choas comes to rest, I know for sure that I will not be wasting any more time (and a boat load of money) on trying to adulterate a drug screen.

You cannot remove the metabolite nucleus from a strand of hair without completely breaking down its molecular structure. It just wont work.

Well, that's it for me. You all keep on 'medicating'. Smoke one for me. I'll be cleaning myself out. I won't be embarrassed like that again over some weed.

Regretful for smoking,
