My apologies if this is already somewhere out there in a thread, I just couldn't find something that matched my scenario all that well.
The rule of thumb is 3 small smoking sessions in 90 days if your hair is atleast 1 1/2 inches long. The reason they took your leg hair is because your head hair must have been too short. Most testers look for a sample length of atleast 3/4 of an inch to test. Given your smoking history I would rest easy, you didn't smoke enough to surpass the cutoff thresholds.
