Question 3

What is Lash Shedding?

Accepted Answer

Lash shedding is part of the natural cycle of hair loss, re-growth, and regeneration. While it’s usually nothing to worry about, it can be quite annoying when you’re trying to keep your lashes flawless!
 
On average, every person loses one to five lashes per day, and each week you lose about 20% of your entire set of eyelashes. All the fallen lashes are immediately replaced by new “baby lashes” that have already started growing in their place, even before they were finally pushed out.
The growth cycle of one individual eye lash lasts anywhere between 60 to 90 days, depending on the person.
On top of that, lash shedding, just like all hair shedding, is seasonal. Generally, we lose most hair in the Spring and Autumn, and this is referred to as “seasonal molting”, or “the shedding season”.
