Everything You Need To Know about the Lash Growth Cycle

Ever wondered why your lashes look so lush one moment and seem to disappear the next? It's all thanks to their unique growth cycle, a lot like the one your hair goes through. But before you go into a panic about shedding lashes or rush to book pricey treatments, let's dive into the nitty-gritty of the lash growth cycle.

Phases of the Lash Growth Cycle

Did you know that on average, each person flaunts between 150-200 natural lashes per eye on their upper eyelids, and 75-100 on the lower ones? While lash length, thickness, and colour vary from person to person, we all share a common journey through the lash growth cycle.

The lash growth cycle can be broken down into three phases: Anagen (active growth), Catagen (transition phase) and Telogen (resting phase). The entire cycle can take between 4 and 11 months.

• Anagen Phase: This is the time for growth! Your lashes are in full swing, adding length and volume.  But here's the catch: not all lashes are in growth mode at once. Only about 40% of your upper lashes are in the anagen phase at any given time. So, before you jump into lash extensions, remember they need to be handled with care to avoid stressing your natural lashes.

• Catagen Phase: Time to take a breather. Your lashes have hit their natural length and now they're pausing for a moment. Now, all the work is happening below the surface. This phase, lasting a couple of weeks, sees the follicles shrinking and preparing for what's next. It's during this stage that lash serums like our Lash Growth Serum work their magic, enhancing lash fullness and minimising fallout. 

• Telogen Phase: The final stretch of the lash growth cycle. Your lashes are taking a well-deserved break, sitting in a resting state until it's time to make way for new growth. The follicle starts to weaken and loosen, and the hair contained will sit dormant and rest until it is ready to fall out. This phase can last up to 100 days before the old lash falls out, clearing the path for a fresh one.

As we age, the natural lash cycle tends to slow down, meaning it takes longer for new lashes to grow during the Anagen phase. Additionally, lashes may not retain moisture as effectively as they once did. Thankfully, lash serums come to the rescue, aiding in the longevity and strength of your lashes! By adding an all-natural lash serum into your daily routine, you can nurture your lashes, maintain hydration, and reduce fallout, resulting in a fuller appearance overall. 

Tips for Healthy Lashes Throughout the Lash Growth Cycle

To keep your lashes in top-notch condition, here are some pro tips:

• Remove makeup gently every day to prevent damage.
• Skip the waterproof mascara and opt for conditioning formulas instead.
• Treat your lashes to some extra love with a nourishing lash serum like Lash CEO Lash Growth Serum. It strengthens lashes, protects against breakage, and enhances flexibility and growth.
• Steer clear of tugging, pulling, or rubbing your lashes to avoid unnecessary stress.
