Question I got hair tested today and did not know that I was going to be tested. My question is I am not a user of smoking marijuana. The last time I tried it was April 28, 2009, and only had two puffs(sexual experience only). Prior to that it was 4 months. Should I be worried ,it was for pre-employment?
Thanking you in advance

Answer Hi Worried,
I dont thnk you will test positve. The amount you smoked is very low (just 2 puffs as you say) and it is just about 8 weeks since. Normally marijuana can be detected for up to 6 to 8 weeks. So I feel you may escape this time. But for your own sake dont repeat it, next time you may not be so lucky.
