Go to this page:

http://www.doctorsdata.com/test_info.asp?id=1

click on 'collection instructions'.

It is an acrobat reader file.

(If you can't get it I could type it out for your)

" Cut samples from the back of the head. Using stainless steel

scissors cut the hair as close to the scalp as possible. It is best

if small amount of hair are cut from 5 - 6 areas..... save only one

inch of the hair closest to the scalp (new growth). Cut off and

discard the rest. "

There is a paper scale in the test kit to help to weigh the sample.

You only need 0.25 g of hair (not very much).

properly, it just keeps repeatedly trying to load the page and nothing

appears. I have tried the home page, but it is the same and I have now

tried a 2nd computer to confirm it is not my main PC, but it is the

same as well.

could even let me know the main points I would appreciate it.

Alternatively if you have the Acrobat pdf file and it would be easier

for you to forward that to me, that would be very helpful.
