Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid by Testclear Review

Introduction: Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid to pass a drug test

Our rating: 5 out of 5, A. Good product.

Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid is a detox shampoo that was first made by the company Nexxus. It sold well and people figured out that since it was used to detox toxins from the hair, it had particular efficacy for detoxing drugs out of the hair shaft for a drug test.

How Hair Drug Tests Work

A hair follicle drug test for weed and other drugs is often called a hair follicle drug test but this is a misnomer. The hair follicle is the very beginning of the hair, underneath the skin, where the hair sprouts up. This is not what is tested. The hair above the scalp is what is tested, the hair shaft right there connecting with the scalp. This hair grows at a rate of 1.5 inches per 90 days. This is what is tested, thereby providing a 90-day window of detection. It will detect moderate and heavy drug use at any time during this period. Small amounts of cannabis or one-time use of drugs may not be detected.

How long a drug like pot stays in your system depends on the drug’s half-life. However, even after it has left the system, it will still be present in the hair. Only after 90 days of abstinence will it no longer be present in the hair. However, if you’ve only used a small amount, how long it remained in the blood can allow you to guess how much will be left in the hair. A small amount will not yield a positive result, so if you haven’t smoked a lot, you may already be in the clear.

During a hair follicle drug test, the technician will have a look at your hair first. Hair which looks overly treated could be disqualified, so don’t dye your hair any funky colors. If your hair has been fried by using any of the subsequent methods, you are likely to pass the test, but don’t let them know you fried your hair with treatments. Tell them you just have bad hair. If they suspect your hair is overly treated, they may go for an armpit or groin hair.

The hair is gonna be bagged and taken back to the lab.

It is likely to be screened for the following drugs:

  1. PCP
  2. amphetamine
  3. cocaine
  4. ecstasy
  5. marijuana
  6. methamphetamine
  7. opioids (codeine, morphine, 6-acetyl morphine)

In addition, employers may also test for alcohol and nicotine. Though these drugs are not illegal, those who use them drive up health care costs for companies. Lastly, some pain clinics will test for kratom so keep that in mind if you have to test at a medical office.

Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid for THC detox: description

To continue the story, Nexxus stopped making the product for unknown reasons. For the record, Nexxus is a very successful shampoo company and possibly did not want to be associated with a shampoo used by people trying to beat drug tests. Old bottles started popping up on the internet going for as much as $ 300. Then fake bottles started appearing.
Finally, Testclear apparently got permission to make the old formula and begin selling it, at a whopping $ 235 a pop. You be the judge if it is worth it and report back to us. FMAHealth can say confidently if you use it with one of the methods described below, you have a very good chance that it will work (we are not recommending any method, just describing what users online have claimed worked for them). The issue is only, the methods may also work with a less expensive shampoo.

Ingredients

Old Style Aloe Rid’s ingredients are what you would expect from a shampoo. However, some say the secret ingredient is propylene glycol.

Propylene Glycol

It is said online that the active ingredient in Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid shampoo is propylene glycol. However, propylene glycol is merely a common shampoo additive, also sometimes used as an antifreeze like ethylene glycol, a related substance. It is theorized this  ‘special’ ingredient is why it’s so expensive. But, propylene glycol is actually a very cheap substance and it is not known to have any special ability to detox the hair. If Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid has a special ingredient, this is not it. So the anecdotal evidence of its effectiveness is likely brought by an entourage of ingredients and not just one.

EDTA

One savvy Reddit user claimed the active ingredient is probably EDTA or Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. This is an ingredient with an interesting profile. It can work to bind metals in chelation therapy and also as an antioxidant, so this is a better guess than propylene glycol.

Note, the following methods can damage, hair, scalp, ears, hands, and eyes so use at your own risk. We are describing these methods, not recommending them. The info on this page is not for anyone 18 and under. Check your local jurisdiction and read the Q and A section for more information on laws regarding detox products and methods.

Directions: How to use Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid with The Jerry G Method

The Jerry G Method is a way of cleansing your hair of drug metabolites. It consists of bleaching and dyeing your hair twice, over the course of 10 days. It is scientifically proven to remove drug metabolites from the hair (See the Q and A section for scientific studies). Also, it incorporates Ultra Clean shampoo by Zydot,Zydot Ultra Clean which is also proven to remove some drug metabolites from the hair.  Last thing, the Jerry G Method can be used also with Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid shampoo which is the most popular detox shampoo online. It’s popular in terms of discussion. As far as actual usage, it’s probably less used than Ultra Clean simply because the price is very prohibitive.

The Jerry G Method
  1. Put on your rubber gloves. Buy two boxes of bleach and dye, enough for two treatments, at least 10 days out from your drug test. The hair dye needs to be the same color as your natural hair. If the hair looks highly treated, the drug tester may decide to take a hair from the pit or groin, or even disqualify you. You need to stop using all drugs, including alcohol, cigarettes, and kratom as they may test for these. The hair dye you buy needs to contain ammonia. Ammonia is used to bust open the hair cuticle so the dye can be deposited. This damage to the hair is the most important step. The more damaged the hair, the more drug residues will come out.
  2. Now bleach and dye your hair following all the instructions on your dye box. Again, be sure to dye the hair your natural hair color. They may not accept a purple or green hair for testing.
  3. Now you need to wash your hair with Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid by testclear. Other retailers may claim to sell the original formula but this is unlikely as it was discontinued by Nexxus many years ago and it’s unlikely there are still bottles out there. Even if there were, it’s hard to believe they would be effective since they will have long expired. The shampoo contains chemicals which can certainly degrade over time.
  4. Wait the 10 days out.
  5. The day before the test, bleach and dye your hair again. Wash with Aloe Rid.
  6. For the coup de grace, on test day, get some baking soda and make a paste. Put it into your hair and leave it in for 15 minutes. Now wash it out. Shampoo with Zydot Ultra Clean. You’re ready to go. You have a great chance of passing your test.

Macujo Method With Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid Instructions

The other method of using Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid to beat a drug test is the Macujo Method. This method was apparently developed in an online marijuana enthusiast community by one of the users in order to pass a hair drug test despite the extensive use of marijuana.

Here’s the equipment you will need:

  1. Disposable Gloves
  2. Goggles
  3. Pack of liquid Tide detergent
  4. Pink Clean and Clear acne wash
  5. Shower caps
  6. Sink
  7. Towel
  8. Toxin rid shampoo with Aloe
  9. Ultra Clean by Zydot shampoo
  10. Warm water
  11. White vinegar

The Macujo Method for weed detox is likely to damage the hair shaft, but studies show, this is the means by which drug residues leak from the hair shaft and are eliminated. Therefore, there is a risk associated with this method which is correlated with efficacy.

  1. Put on your rubber gloves. Shampoo the hair with Old Style Aloe Rid from Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid from testclear website.
  2. Now mix your baking soda with water and make sure you get it down into the roots of your hair.
  3. Put your vaseline around your hairline to protect your skin from harsh chemicals. Now put the Pink Clean and Clear in your hair. Let it stay in there with the baking soda for an hour.
  4. Now shampoo the hair with a dab of Tide detergent from Tide pods. This contains proteases that will break down protein in the hair. This is how it cleans your clothes.
  5. Now shampoo with your Aloe Rid and rinse and towel dry completely.
  6. Add in the vinegar, followed by the Pink Clean and Clear. Let it sit for 30 minutes.
  7. Rinse it out, towel it dry.
  8. Shampoo with the Tide once again. Rinse well and towel dry.
  9. Now shampoo with Aloe rid again. Afterward, shampoo with Ultra Clean by Zydot. Towel dry and you are ready to go take your test. This can be done in one day. You can do it any day before your test as long as you consume no more drugs in the intervening time. Also, clean all of your hair combs and brushes to avoid cross-contaminating your newly drug-free hair with old toxin-filled hair.

Q and A

Q:  Does it work for alcohol and opiates?
A:  Yes, these methods will work for all drugs and alcohol.

Q:  Is it available near me?
A:  The only place to get it is testclear.com  If you live in a state where detox products are not legal, you may not be able to buy it. Check with testclear to see if it is available to ship to your state.

Detox Product Laws
Why would anyone pay that much for 5 ounces of shampoo? Because it promises to help you pass a hair drug test. Passing such a test could allow you to:
  1. Stay out of prison (for probation).
  2. Get a new job.
  3. Keep the job you already have.

One’s freedom and livelihood could be on the line and therefore people are willing to pay big bucks to pass one of these tests.

In some jurisdictions, it may be illegal to use a detox method or product to try to pass a hair shaft drug test. To begin with, it is against the law to attempt to defraud the United States government. This law may apply to drug tests administered by federal courts.

In two states, it is illegal to produce or deliver detox products. They are Texas and Louisiana.

In another 3 states, it is illegal to produce or deliver detox products. They are New Jersey, Florida, and Kentucky. These states have been hit hard by the opioid epidemic.

In nine states, adulterants are banned. Adulterants are substances added to a drug testing sample to throw off the results. This can include detox shampoos. These states are South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Oklahoma, North Carolina, Virginia, Nebraska, Maryland, Illinois, and  Arkansas.

Q: How long does it last?
A:  Once your hair is detoxed, it will last until you resume the use of drugs.

Q: What does the science say about this product and these methods?
A:

The Science of Using Hair Treatments to Beat a Hair Drug Test

A study in the International Journal of Legal Medicine called the Influence of Cosmetic Treatment of Hair on Drug Testing showed that bleaching and dyeing the hair reduced detectable drug metabolites significantly[1].

“The majority of the mean differences were in the range of 40%-60% (cocaine, benzoylecgonine, codeine, 6-acetyl morphine, and THC-COOH). For morphine, the mean difference was higher than 60%, and two cases (THC and nicotine) differed by approx. 30%.”

These numbers are definitely high enough to allow the user to test negative for drugs, especially if more than one round of bleaching and dyeing is combined with the use of Ultra Clean shampoo by Zydot.

A study in Drug Test Analysis showed that bleaching and dyeing will also decrease the detectable levels of Ethyl Glucuronide, which is used to discover alcohol use[2].

A study in Analytical Toxicology studied another hair treatment, hair relaxing, in African Americans. This is a hair treatment that makes curly hair straighter. It found that this treatment significantly reduced detectable drug metabolites.

“…only 5–30% of the original concentration remained in authentic drug hairs that had formerly tested positive for COC, BZE, and CE.[3]

These studies demonstrate that hair treatment without a doubt help remove drug metabolites and residues from the hair. It stands to reason that the Jerry G method, and possibly the macujo method as well will reduce drug metabolites in the hair.

Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid Reviews

Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid by Testclear positive review with Macujo Method

This user is writing in praise of the Macujo Method with Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid. He is right, this method may damage hair, scalp, even hands, and eyes, but it is worth the risk for some people. We are of the opinion the Jerry G Method is safer and more proven.

Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid by Testclear positive review with Jerry G Method

This Reddit user passed using the Jerry G Method.

Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid by Testclear positive review with Macujo Method

This user failed and was quite angry at testclear for apparently assuring him it would work. This review is of dubious validity as the goes on to recommend a new product.

Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid by Testclear positive review with Macujo Method

This user describes passing his test using the Macujo Method. FMA Health found only one claim that the Old Style Aloe Toxin rid with one of the detox methods did not work. Most reviews appear to be positive.

Conclusion: Does Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid really work?

We are going to say, yes, it may work if you use it with one of the methods described above.

Old Style Aloe Toxin Rid will continue to be the most controversial detox shampoo until scientific tests are done showing that it either works or does not, with or without the Macujo or Jerry G method. Your best bet is to use it with the Jerry G Method and with Ultra Clean by Zydot since both bleaching and dyeing and Ultra Clean by Zydot are scientifically proven to remove some amount of drug residues from the hair.
