Hair and fiber collection techniques

Hairs and fibers can be found under fingernails, on clothing, on car seats, etc. before touching the hair or fiber, it should be photographed. If the hair is long, like a human hair, then it can be picked up with a gloved hand. If the hair is short like an animal hair or fiber tweezers or tape should most likely be used. When the hair or fiber is picked up, it should be bagged and labeled.
