Can you fail a hair follicle drug test by just being around somebody that has been smoking drugs?

Yes, especially children. Small children frequently test positive for drugs if they've been stuck in a house where drugs are used a lot (marijuana, crack, etc.). If you just walk into a room where someone is smoking marijuana, you're not going to test positive, but if you're around it a lot you may test positive.

If you wash your hair, no, you shouldn't fail a drug test. A hair follicle drug test tells whether there is any remaining trace of the drug IN your hair - It gets into your hair from your system, internally. That is to say, if you haven't inhaled it at ALL, it shouldn't show up in your hair. However, if someone has been smoking it and you've been sitting there breathing the smoke, it's a possibility. I wouldn't go to the drug test straight from sitting around chatting with your buddies while they smoke pot, though. :P

You can defiantly fail if your around people smoking drugs. Once they exhale, you can inhale secondhand smoke which carries less THC (active ingredient in pot, I assume they were smoking marijuana). Your hair follicle will indicate traces of THC causing you to fail the test.

It's like second-hand smoke from regular cigarettes, if you're around it once in a while on an evening out that's not going to do anything to you, but if your room-mate is smoking every day yes those chemicals will be in your system.
