Question 1

i took a urine test and 5ng of thc showed. will that show in a hair folicle? i was around 2nd hand smoke.

Accepted Answer

THC: Theoretically a tiny amount but this level should not impede emploability and is below confirmatory testing.

Question 2

will second hand crack cocaine smoke show up on a hair follicle test? please help me docs!

Accepted Answer

Highly unlikely: but if you know you are subject to drug testing (especially hair testing), and still are hanging out where crack cocaine is being smoked, you need to think about your risk-taking and decision making.  If anyone inhales enough cocaine smoke to register positive, then they potentially were inhaling enough to have other effects as well.  People who hang around bars eventually drink, ditto with crack.

Question 3

can advil (ibuprofen) really show as thc in hair test?

Accepted Answer

Advil (ibuprofen) test thc false: When labs only used emit test it was possible. Now labs can use gas chrimatograph/mass spectrometer & rarely can be still + but only at very high doses. Try not to take &gt;1200mg/day of advil (ibuprofen) with food to lessen risk of GI bleed. Hair drug tests are more accurate in people with chronic substance dependence issues and not so much in occasional use.

Question 4

my husband has not smoked pot in six months. will he be able to pass a hair follicle test for thc or must he wait longer?

Accepted Answer

It is anticipated: That there will no longer be a positive hair follicle test this far out.

Question 5

i took a hair drug test today going back 6 mos.if i smoked weed 1 x 5.5 mos ago will thc or its metabolites show?hair grows fast and high metabolism

Accepted Answer

Entirely possible: That your hair test will be positive for pot.

Question 6

is it possible to pass a hair drug test for thc?

Accepted Answer

THC and Drug Tests: Nope. Unless you have not inhaled or ingested any thc ever.  If the drug is used it will be your hair until that level of hair has grown out and you cut it off.

Question 7

how much thc is detectable in a hair follicle drug test?

Accepted Answer

Longest window of de: Hair test offers the longest window of detection.That is 90 days in a standard test
test does not detect the amount but presence of thc.The testing method measures drug molecule embedded in the hair shaft and not hair follicle.

Question 8

i smoked about 150 fifty day ago. would thc be in my system still. armpit hair test, i'm not a smoker just took a dab hit and a bong hit.

Accepted Answer

NO: You should be good to take your standard drug test.

If someone is looking at your armpit hair they are not looking for marijuana.

Marijuana is usually out of your system within 2 weeks if it truly was a single use. Long term can last in the urine up to a 100 days.

Question 9

i have a upcoming drug test, how long does marijuana (thc) stay in your hair follicles? an is there anything to take it out of your system?

Accepted Answer

several months: See http://www.Canorml.Org/healthfacts/drugtestguide/drugtestdetection.Html 
quoting from it:"one study found that 85% of daily users tested positive for marijuana, versus 52% of occasional smokers (1-5 times per week)...It is doubtful whether hair tests are sensitive to one-time use of marijuana."
nothing takes it out. They usually test the hair closest to scalp which can show use in past 3 mos.

Question 10

how long does it take for hair to grow thc free, after last marijuana use. i have to pass a hair test in two months. heavy user, fast metabolism?

Accepted Answer

Months: It can take months for a heavy user.
