    Will it show up, that answer is a yes and no, it will show up, but the issue is the limits of the test, most tests have a level of acceptable pass and fail. Only your tester knows those.

    If you have done this every month, for months and months, then yes most likely it will be enough to be noticed, if all it was just those few times, you should pass most standard testing

    Fr. Chuck is correct as your usage may be detectable, but may well fall below the accepted level to pass the test if what you have written is correct. Typically the hair follicle test goes back 90 days.

    My hair grows very fast 3/4 to almost an inch a month, will they still just use 1 1/2 inches. I mean I'm not going to tell them, but can they figure that out?
