How do i stop my habit of pulling out eyelashes?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Stop!: Stop pulling them! you might try puting a sign on the mirror where you pull them to remind you. As well you might lock up all tweezers or devices you us to pull the lashes. Afte not pulling them for 30 days the habit will hopefully be stopped.

See a doctor: Pulling out eyelashes is a form of mental disorder called trichtillomania. It can be treated by a psychiatrist.
