Why Do Eyelashes Turn White?
Hi..my age is 17 and I got a white eyelash. It was long so I cut it once in frustration. But it keeps on growing now. I m very worried because it s long and white. And don t want to go to a doctor. And I don t want to take any medicines either. So what should I do now?

Hello, let me tell you that greying of eyelashes at such a young age is not normal..the causes of premature greying are numerous, ranging from nutritional causes to chemicals..You will have to visit a dermatologist for evaluation of the cause and accordingly appropriate management can be directed.
It is always better to target the abnormalities early, before they advance.
Thanks
Take care
