Will Smoking Weed 3 Days Prior To Follicle Drug Test Show Up?

Hi. The job I m trying to get requires me to take a hair follicle drug test. I stopped smoking Marijuana regularly about two years ago but while I was drinking my friend talked me into smoking but I only took one small hit 3 days before my test. Will I fail my hair test?

HI
Well come to HMC
Ideally narcotic drug effect remains in the system up to few hours to day and this all depends how much drug you have taken, how metabolism works, type of drug you have taken, what was the active ingredient was in, let me tell you with the newer tech this may be possible, in your case this may show some effect, hope this information helps, take care.
