Sensitivities include all those reactions to food and non-food items that can activate a non-immune mediated response.

Instead they can be caused by not having the right enzymes you need to digest certain foods or a reaction to food additives or preservatives.

The safest way to take a hair sample is to ask someone else to help you. Using your forefinger and thumb, gather 3 or 4 strands and slightly twist the hair together.

This will make cutting the hair sample much more accessible and keep all the hair strand in the same direction.

Try to cut the hair sample as close to the scalp as possible, using one cut. If you do not have anyone to help you, using a mirror may help ensure you avoid injury.

The hair sample does not have to be from the head, we can test hair from any part of the body, including leg, arm or chest.

The test is completed on the hair sample composition so that no hair processing will not affect the result. However, if you would like, you can provide hair from elsewhere on the body.

Children can complete a hair sensitivity test once they reach five years old due to their immune system changes and the importance of eating a varied diet.

Infants have not yet built up their tolerance levels to items, highlighting false positives in their test results.

However, it is up to the parents or guardians if they would still like to proceed knowing this.

If you’ve purchased one of the sensitivity tests, you will have to pay the postage cost back to the processing centre, which then sends the sample to the UK.
