Does anyone pull their eyelashes out?

Why the heck do you pull them out in the first place?

They exist for a reason you know, to protect the eyes against debris and whatnot

I like my lashes, thank you very much.

My eyebrows, on the other hand, can go ahead and STOP trying to take over my face....

But out of curiosity, what have your eyelashes done to deserve such treatment? Seems like an awfully odd thing to have as just a natural compulsion.

I was going to to perfect my Alex costume for Fanime 2008, but the man wouldn't let me. By the man, I mean my mother. >_>

I have a bonafide unibrow, so I have to shave my eyebrows.

About once a month a few of mine itch because they're about to fall out and I tug on them a little to help them out of there.

They probably wouldn't come out on their own because of the mascara.

I can't believe no one's heard of people doing this before.

I don't, btw, but I have heard of people who do. The worst habit I have is that I bite the corners where my nail and thumb meet until they bleed. I've been pretty good about not doing it so often, though. It's normally something I do when I'm stressed.

I do, I admit it.

But that's mainly because I'm insane and I think I have too many.

I mean, they just come out like they normally do from time to time. Or when I scratch my eye a lot because of some debry or something.

No.

But I frequently pull a lot of my hair out and roll it into balls. I have none around right now, but I usually have a number lying on my desk. Yes, I have a lot of hair - a seemingly endless amount at that.

I knew a guy who habitually twirled his hair until he formed a bald spot on his head. Perhaps it's that slight sting and then slow reprieve that acts as a "drug" to some, including myself.

Ditto that.

Sometimes I have a habit of excessively running my hands through my hair--not to look suave, mind you, but to pull out all the loose hairs. I have a lot of loose hairs. Thankfully I'm blond, so I don't leave behind too much of a trail.

I have 2 eyelash hairs, which bother my left eye badly, because they aren't above the eye(or below), I might remove those 2 hairs.

what!? you mean to say you only have 2 eyelash hairs on one eye? that definetly must look weird.

lol.. are you going bald? or are you just picky, picky with your hair just to look suave?

Some people just shed more than others.

I have ridiculously thick hair.
I wish I would shed a lot :C

No. I don't remember anytime where I tried to pull out my eyelashes.
Though I pull out my eyebrow hair almost every other day >_<

Geeze, I have bad habits (like biting my knuckles) but thats not even really something that is painful. The only painful habit I have is to pop pimples, but its satisfying since I dont want them there, so unless you dont want your eyelashes I cant see why you would pull them out.

^^ well it's good to see that you've at least stopped for the time being. I can't imagine myself ever even pulling out an eyeslash, maybe just to get any small particle out of them, but not actually take them off.

I usually just pull on them softly to take out any lashes that are already loose.
I don't intentionally pull on them wanting to pull out lashes

Yes, I don't rip them from the root though. I just rub them and pick em a little and they fall. Daily, I pick up 3 hairs from my eyelashes from each eye. And 5-6 from each eyebrow. =/

Its a nervous habit, its better than biting my finger nails, or knuckles.

Yeah, my hair is just particularly thick. By and large, blondies have much more hair on their heads than brunettes. Most hair cutters I've been to have commented about my thick hair. I shed like a cat!

Mine don't come out easily unless they're ready to fall out on their own. In that case I do pull them out so they don't end up IN my eye. Otherwise...no.
