Reliability of Hair/Fiber Analysis
Although it is on a very rare occasion that forensic investigators find a hair with tissue remaining, hair and fiber analysis is still very useful in cases. When tissue is present, it can be scanned for DNA to find an exact match of the person who shed the hair. In cases where no tissue is present, the hair can be used to massively narrow the list of suspects. Since all types of hair is unique - synthetic hair, Asian hair, Caucasian hair, or Black hair - finding a single strand of hair can narrrow the list by looking to see the structure and color of the hair under a microscope.
