Kitchen Hair Tonic
More strands in the drain. A part that keeps widening. Silver arriving earlier than you expected. In Chinese Medicine your hair is an outward expression of what is happening deep inside — and this three-ingredient paste is the recipe I make for it.

Desiree de Lunae, L.Ac.
I am a healer, author and licensed acupuncturist with more than two decades of experience in Chinese Medicine and Elemental Medicine. I help empaths and highly sensitive people work with their bodies and their emotions rather than against them.
Kitchen Medicine is where my own story begins. My Korean mama’s kitchen was the remedy to nearly every illness or injury I had growing up — rich herbs, warm oils, potions I was fed before I understood what they were doing. What I love most about a recipe like this one is that it lives on your counter, in your own hands, on your own schedule.
Your Hair Tells You
Before Anything Else Does
Chinese Medicine reads the hair as a report on what is happening deep in the body. Two systems govern it, and when either one runs low, you see it at the scalp long before you feel it anywhere else.
What depletes them is ordinary life. Stress that never quite lifts. Sleep that never quite restores. Giving more than you take in, year after year. None of it happens overnight — which is exactly why the remedy is a spoonful a day rather than a bottle of something.
