A friend of mine told me: You're eyelashes will grow faster & longer if you cut them...
Then I found:
Trimming eyelashes doesn't make them grow faster, due to the fact that they are genetically geared to only grow a certain length and shape. Stop trimming eyelashes to prevent wearing false eyelashes for a long time with tips from an experienced cosmetologist in this free video on beauty.
If you cut it, it takes weeks to grow back.

What can make your hair grow faster (& eyelashes)?
- One way of making your hair grow faster is to not straighten it, because this then causes split ends, and when you have split
ends your hair won't grow.
- Eliminate or cut back on smoking, caffeine and carbonated sodas which weaken the body and block maximum hair growing potential.
- Eat a healthy diet. Avoid foods that are high in sugar or fat.
- Treat your hair like a piece of fine old lace. Treat it carefully avoiding any unnecessary brushing, combing or handling.
- Avoid use of hot water, hot blow dryers or other hair care tools that may stress the hair.
- Have a weekly scalp massage to provide stimulation to the hair follicles.
- Do a series of ongoing hot oil treatments to protect the hair's shaft.
- Have regular trims to eliminate split ends and allow the hair to look and feel healthier.
- Get plenty of rest and sleep to allow your body to grow hair.

& eyelashes?
- Definitely do not attempt to put any topical ointments near you eyes (such as rogain, etc) as blindness may be the result.
A lot of people use this "Talika LIPOCILS Eyelash Conditioning Gel"
Talika. It's called Lash Conditioner and it looks like a clear mascara, it's a available at any Sephora and it's chock full of vitamins and stuff to help thicken and strengthen lashes.
The story behind Talika:
“In 1948 a young Medical Doctor named Danielle Roches was treating war casualties in the Hospitals of Paris. Whilst using a special anti-bacteria cream she had formulated with plants extracts, Dr Roches discovered that the product not only promoted the healing of wounds, but also had a dramatic secondary benefit: significant and measurable eyelash and eyebrow growth.”
Intriguing, eh? Well it gets better. Talika’s website proudly proclaims that they have clinical proof of their claims. They claim their product provides “measureable eyelash and eyebrow growth” yet the clinical study referenced on the website only shows that their product helps eyelashes reach a longer “maximum length.” Read that part carefully - their study doesn’t show that their product stimulated the GROWTH of eye hairs, it only shows that more eye hairs reached their “maximum length” when treated with the product.
We keep putting “maximum length” in quotes because that’s the wording used in their report. The exact description of the data is “Percentage of hairs (eyelashes or eyebrow hairs) having reached a maximum length.” We’re not exactly sure WHAT that means. But we do have a theory.
