It was a hair test for parole...I knew someone who was snorting...and I was around it...but my hands never touched the powder...and i failed the test...this had to have been through the air?

I have known about drug tests coming up positive due to specimen mix ups and faulty testing (urinalysis). If you do get another chance I would make bloody damned sure that I wasn't around anyone who IS using, smoking, injecting, etc. Even when you yourself know that you are clean, there is an old adage that goes: birds of a feather flock together. Good luck.

That really does suck. Drug tests are not 100% accurate, if that is any consolation.They may have also mixed your test with someone elses. Retake the test, if you can. The problem is that cocaine gets out of your system relatively quickly (2-3 days), so they may not let you (I am assuming this is for a job).
Did anyone possibly smoke it near you? If you inhaled just a little bit, it could set off the drug test.
I was just reading the question again, are you saying that you failed because of coke or that you just failed. A lot of different substances will trigger a drug test failure, including pot, opiates, etc.
