It may take up to 30 days for all the nicotine to dissipate out of your body systems, especially in the lungs, which also have blood veins running through them. They test for continine, which is what nicotine breaks down into. You should have normal, non-smoker levels of continine about seven to ten days after your last cigarette. According to Insure.com, an online insurance broker, urine tests can detect nicotine up to three weeks after quitting.
There are few different things in hookah that can make you light headed. The first is more than likely the large amount of nicotine you are intaking. One hour of hookah smoking is equivalent to 100 cigarettes. This much nicotine is typically the most likely thing that makes people light headed.

When nicotine acts, it causes adrenaline to be released into your body. Adrenalin works in the "fight or flight" system of the body, a.k.a. the sympathetic nervous system. If you've every run after a cab then you know what the "fight or flight" system does. Your heart beats faster; your blood vessels constrict. Nicotine is a vasoconstrictor, and that's why your cold fingers feel even colder when you smoke that necessary cigarette in mid-January. The blood supply to the skin is decreased, drawing heat away from the skin. Adrenaline also tells your body to drop lots of glucose in your blood, a life of hyperglycemia, and tells insulin to "Stop! Don't take that glucose out of the blood!". With plenty of glucose in the blood, the body thinks its not hungry, hence cigarettes as appetite suppressors. In addition to all of this excitement, in the long run, nicotine increases the amount of low-density lipoproteins, LDL, commonly known as "bad" lipoproteins, which increases the risk of heart attacks and strokes. If that's all that nicotine did to our bodies then we could all just run around to get the physical feeling of adrenaline pumping through our bodies, but nicotine has a field day in the brain. The acetylcholine receptors mentioned previously are located in a pathway in the brain known as the "reward center". This is the same place that is stimulated when we eat, when we drink, when we have sex. Cocaine works on the same pathway. When nicotine stimulates the neurons in the reward center, the neurons release dopamine. Dopamine reinforces activities that are essential for survival, like eating, sleeping, and now smoking, not that smoking is essential for survival, but dopamine makes us feel that way. Cigarettes are positively reinforced by our brain! That's why quitting is so hard. Release of acetylcholine also causes neurons in other parts of the brain to release glutamate, which is involved in developing memories. One theory says that new memories are created about cigarettes as you smoke them, thereby hardwiring the little suckers and the euphoric feeling they create into your brain.
