Depends on where you are located. In the US some states have severe lab restrictions like NY

trouble with hair analysis is if the person is a non-excretor - won't
find the metals in the hair.

there are labs that will test hair and they seem to outside the NY
requirements. you will have to look up those services, some of
which are private, small healing businesses (for lack of a better
way to describe them)

As far as I know Mercury accumulates in hair and can be detected there. But can anybody list any lab anywhere?

it only goes into hair if body able to excrete it and many are non-excretors, so it doesn't show up there

Great Smokies in North Carolina was a fav among many practitioners and I used them over the years for hair and saliva analysis but they were acqured and now merged so the new website doesn't have easy to find hair analysis but more intricate tests. Urine tests also used for mercury detection.

Here's one list of test sites, many require a physician or alternative doc to order the tests, so look under the Home Test section.

When I had all my mercury amalgam fillings removed, I used Chlorella and some nutritional chelation products to make sure any mercury that may have escaped into me hopefully was removed.
You can try these w/o testing to see how you feel.
