Drug Testing Question (Hair Tests)

Sup,

Obviously using a throwaway account for this but I was wondering if anyone knew anything about hair testing and if it is used by banks for experienced hires. I would definitely pass a piss test, but not a hair test, and wanted to know if there is any cause for concern. I know Lincoln does them, but that's the only one I've heard of. If you have any insight, please let me know. Also please don't tell me to shave my whole body--my hair is perfect and my chest pubes are raw af and I'm never getting rid of them.

Adding on to this, I was discussing this with a friend and he said that companies in NY need to mention the drug test in the offer letter (usually separately from the "background check"). So if it doesn't say "drug test" then maybe you don't need to do one.

Dayman?
