How Long Does Marijuana Stay In Our Body?

This questions is probably a little different then you are used to. I was wondering if I wanted to pass a hair follicle drug test would it work to stop usage, then cut my hair short let it grow out and then cut the ends off to cut out all of the potential bad hair? I know depending on drug it moves through your hair more. Just a bit of info the drug that was used was marihuana.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. No one can really say how long you will test positive for marijuana, since the rate of metabolism varies per individual. The amount of marijuana consumed can also alter the window of time that your body retains traces. However it may take a maximum of 60 days in extreme case. And also cutting the bad hairs may not work.

Do let me know if this was useful and if you have any more questions.

Regards,
Dr. Akash Kumar
