Depends on last hair cut. Marijuana will be out of the system somewhere between mid-june and july (pessimistic; maybe a bit earlier). BUT, if the hair is still there from January So is the marijuana from January.

Go bald !!!

The drug stay permanently in the hair after they get into it. BUT only in the hair at that point and not in the entire length of the hair. A fairly short haircut will get it out of the hair. How long would your hair grow in 2 months? That should be a safe length.
