You'll have to ask your doctor about this. I dated a woman once who had her hair analyzed, it was an excuse to sell her something to correct inbalances. I don't have enough to spare unless I could use the ones from the shower drain.

Hair analysis can reveal if seniors have elevated stress hormone levels that may put them at increased risk for heart disease and stroke, a new study suggests.
Unlike
a blood test that provides information about stress hormone levels at a
single point in time, analysis of a strand of hair can reveal trends in
levels of the stress hormone cortisol over several months, according to
the researchers.
The study, published April 17 in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, found that seniors with higher long-term levels of cortisol were more likely to have heart disease.
