What Are The Chances Of Finding Out The Intake Of Weed In Hair Follicle Test?

I have a question. I got an interview for a job at a dealership. He said that they do hair follicle tests. And I was wondering. The last time I smoked was sometime in between the beginning and middle of January. But I haven y smoked weed since. And it was only once or twice. So my question is, will I pass the hair test. He said we can wait as long as it takes, but I d really like to start working soon. So A) would it show up since I haven t smoked since Jan., and B) when do you think it would be safe to go in for the test.

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Weed stay in hair follicle for one month. If you have taken it in Jan and after that you were not regular, in that case, chances of getting positive test is very less. Better to avoid further use of weed. You can go for test. After one and half month chances of getting positive test is unlikely.

Thanks
