What is Hair Clipping for Fungus?

A hair clipping for fungus test is a diagnostic procedure to detect fungal infections of the scalp (tinea capitis). Small samples of hair, often including the root and nearby scalp debris, are collected from the affected area using sterile scissors or forceps.

These samples are sent to a laboratory for microscopic examination and fungal culture. The test identifies the specific fungus causing the infection, which aids in targeted treatment.

The procedure is painless and non-invasive. Results from cultures may take a few weeks.

It is essential to avoid using antifungal shampoos or medications before the test to ensure accurate results.
