whoever is ordering hair testing for you needs to call the lab and talk to the chemist- all labs have consulting chemists to answer questions like this.
The thing is, that kind of confirmation testing has a really low (almost non-existant) false positive rate, so if you are truly not using, or spending a lot of time around people who are, I can't explain it.
