I am now 36. I started pulling out my eyelashes and eyebrows when I was 12. Sure enough, I got bullied because of it, and as a result, I would come home from school and resort to pulling out more lashes/brow until it was completely bare. I can soo relate to all these stories I’ve read on this. I still to this day wear really thick black eyeliner in an effort to hide my lack of lashes. I’m glad to say I don’t pluck as much as I used to, but sadly there are bald patches on the brow, and trying to grow back the lash takes forever. Perhaps if I didn’t wear make-up for a few months that would fix it. I remember back in my teens, watching tv and pulling out lashes/brows. Each time I would “strike lucky”, I’d subconsciously rub the item along my lower lip to see if I had gotten the root as well. It sounds gross, but it’s what I used to do ! Thank God, after finding this website by accident, that I am not the only person that does/did this. I try so so hard not to do it these days but its not easy. I’ve promised myself next time that I will give the vaseline on the lashes a go. Failing that, then I might have to resort to wearing boxing gloves !!!
We can do it guys, have faith xx
