    Hair follicle test
    I know there are loads of information about hair follicle test on the internet, but they vary too much and I am so worried now.

    I shared a joint of marijuana with 2 friends on new years eve and prior to that, I had a joint in feb 2013. And that's it for the drug history in my life.

    I took a hair follicle test on 27/2 (around 56 days since new years eve) as pre-employment medical test with a company. I know the results depends on a lot of factors. However, generally speaking, how likely I will be tested positive given that I am a 24 years old lad? I am asian, normal size and I exercise once every two weeks.

    Thank you very much for your time reading this.

    Exercize means nothing... nor does age or race... useage is locked into your hair.. the same for a professional athlete as it is for a couch potato, which is dead material and obviously the more you use... the more that will lbe there to detect.

    Your results should be back soon... so whatever they are... they are. If you only used what you said... you will probibly pass... if you weren't being honest and used a lot more... then you might not.

    Smoothy, thanks for your answer. I know I can't change the results but I would like to be mentally ready for what might come up. There's no point for me not being honest here since I truly want some reliable opinions. Again, I appreciate for your reply it makes me feel much better, at least for now.

    I made that qualifier.. because if you've read much on this site... more often than not someone starts saying one thing.. then after questioning they admit to far more use. You would be very unlikely to fail.

    Out of curiosity, if you don't mind me asking, why are you so good at this kind of question? Do you work in this field?

    Lots of experience... plus I've been subject to random drug tests myself for every employer I've ever worked for. So we are talking over 30 years of going through these with 7 different employers. Some of them VERY strict due to the nature of the jobs, others not so much. I'm a type of person that learns as much as they can about everything I have to deal with in life and work, and that has lead to a pretty wide knowledge base over the last 53 years.
