Hair Drug Testing

What is Hair Testing?

Hair testing is a process in which hair specimens are analyzed for the use of certain drugs. When compared to other forms of testing, hair samples can detect a much longer period of drug use. The industry standard is to test 1.5 inches of head hair for approximately 90 days of history. Once received by Omega Laboratories, results will report out within 1-3 business days.
