How long for eyelashes?

[loralai]

I just finished my last 6th treatment and am looking forward to some eyelashes again...how long till they grown back? I didn't lose them all but I don't really have enough for mascara. Just wondering...

Thanks!! I too have gotten used to no hair but I need my eyes back! I gotta tell you I have enjoyed not shaving though. I am also blonde (at least I hope I still am!) and never had to worry about eyebrows but I can't seem to get them even with makeup so I always look a bit crooked LOL! My last treatment was 12/27 and my birthday is 2/2 so hopefully I'll wake up to some sprouts. It is the little things I miss and am very impatient to have them back. Be well everyone.

Mine took about 6 weeks.  It was the strangest thing watching them grow back in.  Looked like a mascara brush at first.  My eyebrows came back fairly quickly, too.  One day I was looking in the mirror and noticed I need to shape them.  I have never been so happy to pluck in all my life!  

Best wishes to you, and I hope you enjoy your new hair!  When it comes back, it will be so soft like a baby's.

Agh, I remember being so excited about getting my eyelashes and eyebrows back - I could have cared less about my hair at that point! I think I remember wearing mascara for the first time and it wasn't until about a good 10-12 weeks after my last treatment. You have to figure, nothing will start to grow for 3 weeks - the magical fourth week!! Oh, how I couldn't wait for that 4th week! I hadn't had one in 4 months  (I had a treatment every three weeks). Good luck to you and enjoy every moment of your new hair!

I just bought new mascara and I have thicker eyelashes then I did before. They arent as long yet but I'm so happy to have them back.  I's say it took about 8 weeks for mine. I also dont have to draw in my eyebrows anymore.  Hoping by next month I can ditch my wigs!! CANT WAIT!!  Gotta love the little things right!

Daughters hair is coming back very slowly, because she is a natural blonde it is so hard to see.  Seems to grow in spots. she is 6 weeks out of last chemo. She is not letting it  bother her, goes every where,

I finished my last chemo in mid September and had all my eyelashes and eyebrows back by November- it was pretty quick for me.  My lashes are still not as long as they were but they continue to grow.
