TCM Perspective on Hair Loss and Kidney Essence

In TCM, hair health is seen as a reflection of the body’s internal health, particularly the kidneys. The kidneys are considered the source of vitality and are closely associated with 'Jing' or essence, which is fundamental to growth, development, and reproduction. Jing is believed to directly affect the bones, marrow, and, importantly, the hair. Thus, hair loss in TCM is often interpreted as a depletion or weakening of kidney essence.
