So, here's my background:

I'm male, 34 Y/O, cig smoker. Otherwise very healthy, exercise daily. I was an herb smoker, usually 4-5 days a week for the past several years. I also partake occasionaly in some other drugs: mdma, coke, ecstacy

A. Stopped smoking full time on 7/3. I did take a few tokes on 7/9

B. Took ecstacy pills three times between 5/20 and 7/3.

Here are my questions:

1. When should I cut my hair? been basicaly 20 days since I last burned one.

2. How soon would you risk taking a hair test?

Here are my thoughts:

1. Cut hair this weekend, within a half inch of scalp. Do the same again early September.

2. Don't apply / put myself in position for a drug test until middle - late October at the earliest, Maybe with one last slight trim leaving a bit over an inch of hair.

Good Plan?

1: You'll be fine to cut your hair right away. THCA stops depositing into the hair after 2-3 days, so all new hair growth is clean. We usually try to tell people to wait 7-10 days, that way you have a little hair on your head.

2: Most testers look for atleast 3\4 of an inch to test and average human hair growth is 1\2 inch per month, so your looking at around 45 days.

You really need to take your hair down to atleast a 1/4 of an inch. Wait 45 to 60 days and you'll be ready.

Also, we don't discuss other types of drugs here, its against the forum rules.
