5 tips to grow your eyelashes and how long it takes to see improvement
If you want longer, fuller eyelashes, you can take steps to help them grow. "It is possible to significantly increase the length and thickness of your eyelashes," says Brett King, MD, a dermatologist at Yale Medicine.
Your eyelashes typically take around two months to grow. However, factors like genetics, health conditions, hygiene habits, and traumatic injuries can affect the growth of your eyelashes or cause you to lose your lashes.
Here are some steps you can take to get longer, thicker eyelashes.
Why won't my lashes grow?
Eyelashes typically grow much slower than the hair on your scalp. "Generally speaking, otherwise healthy eyelashes grow about 0.15 millimeters per day and are typically about seven millimeters long (beyond the skin). So, doing the math, it takes one to two months to grow a normal-length eyelash from scratch," says King. By contrast, the hair on your head can grow as fast as 1.1 millimeters per day.
