yeah. they grow back. Once i was curling my eyelashes, and i didnt see that the little white cushion thing fell, so i curled them. And when i looked at the curler i had all my eyelashes on it. It hurt to close my eyes. They are there to prevent dust from getting into your eye. So it hurts when they fall offf.

Individual eyelashes fall out all the time. People who wear contact lenses know this fact all too well. Eyelashes take about four to eight weeks to grow back. These tiny hairs (with help from their cousins to the north) protect your eyes from dust and sweat — you'd definitely notice a difference if you were to lose them.
According to Yahoo! Health, the medical term for the severe loss of eyelashes is madarosis. People who suffer from hypothyroidism (an underperforming thyroid gland) often lose their eyelashes in small clumps. Damaging an eyelash follicle, or the small cavity that grows the hair, can also affect future eyelash growth.

*all u needed to do was research

unlike the hair follicle of the scalp eye lashes grow back they do take a much longer re- growth transition. some don't grow back, especially if you use alot of eye makeup like mascara and eye liner.

Yes!
But not as thick, sadly. :[

When I was a kid I pulled ALL mine out for some god awful reason, and they used to be thick and awesome, but now they're just… eh.

But if you want them to be thick again, you can just get eyelash-extensions. Weird as that sounds.
