Can eyelashes grow back?
Yes they do. Eyelashes are like every other hair on your body. They have a specific growth cycle that keeps them growing regularly. Like each other hair, they will grow to a specific length and then stop. Although most do not realize it, all of the hair on your body will replace itself every few years with new hair, including your eyelashes.
I know this because I used an eyelash curler and accidentally cut off some of my lashes after which I used eyelash enhancers that helped me lot to grow back my eyelashes!!!! Trust, I looked like a fool for a few days ; )
Individual eyelashes fall out all the time. People who wear contact lenses know this fact all too well. Eyelashes take about four to eight weeks to grow back. These tiny hairs (with help from their cousins to the north) protect your eyes from dust and sweat — you’d definitely notice a difference if you were to lose them. According to Yahoo! Health, the medical term for the severe loss of eyelashes is madarosis. People who suffer from hypothyroidism (an underperforming thyroid gland) often lose their eyelashes in small clumps. Damaging an eyelash follicle, or the small cavity that grows the hair, can also affect future eyelash growth.
