Will he pass his drug test?!


Question: Will he pass his drug test!?
My brother smoked weed two times in early january, like the 9th and 10th!.
Today, he just had a hair follicle test for a job!.

He had his hair cut thursday so the length is between 1 and 1 1/2 inches!.

If he only smoked those two times and only a few times in december and november, will he pass the drug test!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Healthy hair will grow about 1/2 inch a month, so chances are good that the hair taken from his head will be clean!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Should have completely shaved his head to be safe!. There is still a chance he might fail!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

actually, hair only grows an average of 1/4 inch a month, and as such means that the follicle he had in january is still there, no, I don't think he will pass it, unless his hair grows abnormally quickly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hair testing is quite accurate and can go back 6 months or longer, showing any controlled substances used in a sort of timeline!. As hair grows out, any drugs used are encased in the hair shaft, so the longer the hair, the longer back in the individual's drug history the lab can detect!. Most legitimate testing facilities, however, only use hair within about 3-5 cm of the scalp, and discard the rest!. This limits the detection history to about 90 days, depending upon the rate of growth of the individual's hair!. Some people attempt to circumvent this through shaving their heads!. In the absence of the required amount of hair on the scalp, body hair can be used as an acceptable substitute!. Additionally, for pre-employment hair testing, the inability to obtain a sample may be grounds for not hiring the individual!.



If this is for a job and you just attended a party or otherwise aren't a hardcore user, I wish you luckWww@Answer-Health@Com
