January 2020 in “International Research Journal of Ayurveda & Yoga” The Ayurvedic concept of hair management was based on the understanding that hair is a byproduct (mala) of the aasthi dhatu (bone tissue). Nourishing the aasthi dhatu was considered essential for healthy hair. Hair loss, or khalitya roga, was categorized as a minor disease or a disorder of the head and scalp, often linked to sedentary lifestyles, stress, and hectic schedules. Ayurveda provided guidance on hair care through the use of herbal remedies, emphasizing the importance of maintaining balance in the body's dhatus for overall hair health.
