Long, Beautiful, Voluminous Eyelashes are every woman’s dream they are an indispensable part of our beauty giving volume to our eyes. Regardless of the shape and color of the eye, lashes are capable of giving a versatile, intense and dramatic look to your face.
It is possible to grow your eyelashes. It is a process, and it doesn’t happen overnight! That is because it takes eyelashes three stages for them to grow back!
The Amagen Phase takes between 30 – 45 days . During the Amagen Phase, eyelashes grow continuously, without falling out.
The Catagen Phase is a transitional phase that lasts 2-3 weeks. This is when the eyelash growth stops. No growing at this stage occurs because the outer root eyelash sheath shrinks and is attatched to the hair root.
The Tolegen Phase is when, for 100 days, the eyelashes rest, and do not fall off. Afterwards, when they do start to fall off, this is where the quickest eyelash growth occurs. The eyelashes begin to grow back because that is the part of the normal cycle for hair replacement.
