What if you only smoke a little would my hair be clean?

When you take any drug into your body, your bloodstream lays down a "track" on your body hair. As hair grows out, that track moves with it. When hair is analysed for drug use, it CAN show up. It is not ON your hair, but IN your hair. There are a number of stories about how you can "beat" a drug screen. They are just that- stories. The only reliable way to do that is not to do the drugs.

It depends whether they are testing hair from the head or hair for the body. Normally it is 90 days (with a standard test) but it can be up to a year if they test body hair. Check out the link I added for detailed information.
