I was a regular smoker of weed up until April 24th, haven't smoked since then. I passed n over the counter drug test at the beginning of June. Today, July 27th I took a hair follicle test. Do you think I passed?

90 days is the typical time frame for detection but that is not in stone. What's to lose?

Case that I don't want to lose

It's possible you will pass, but slim.

You've already taken the test, nothing we tell you will change the outcome.

Yes I know. I just wanted some reassurance.

If you were not around friends who were smoking (second hand smoke) and have stopped using completely. Then there is good chance of passing after the 90 day level. Again this will depend on why you are taking the test, child custody, probation, parole, and so on. Every agency doing the test will have different limits for pass and fail.

"Case that I don't want to lose". How does worrying at this point help? The worry should have been, WHAT IF!

I paid for it through a medical facility. Labcorp did the testing. They said it was a standardized 90 day test. With that information are my chances still good?

A hair drug test is mean to show consistent use over time. A 1.5 inch sample will go back 90 days. There are some variables involved. The results will depend on how often you smoked and the strength of the THC ingested. This is a hard one to call. If I would have to put numbers on it I would say you have a 60% chance of passing. By the way most labs use the same standard cutoff levels for hair drug tests and the reason has no bearing on how the testing takes place. But the thing about testing for marijuana the level is qualitative and the amount does not correlate to usage.
