Who would want a hairy eyeball?

Who would want a hairy eyeball?

Me, for one..........

The stuff is actually reported to grow hair along the entire lower eyelid and upper cheekbone. It is supposed to be applied at night and of course, it can smear and transfer to the cheek.

I asked an esthetician friend about using it for sparse eyebrows and she said: “Not unless you want to end up looking like Einstein.”

Every five years they're saying that the cure for baldness is only five years away.

If there was such a pill to take that would give me hair like Eddie Van Halen had in 1984, I'd be freebasing that stuff right now.

My mom uses one of those eyelash growing gels, and the results are amazing. She looks like she’s wearing false eyelashes, but she’s not.

Rubbed on the forehead it opens the third eye, and gives it lashes and brows too?

[Red Badger]

Have you tried it on your head?..........

I am a Professional Photographer and for many of my shoots, I have a Hair and MUA (Make Up Artist) there.

Usually the girls come over with no makeup on at all and let the Artist do the work which also includes False Eye Lashes.

One gal came over and I swear that she already had False Lashes on. She said....Nope it is from Latisse.

Longest thickest “natural” eyelashes that I have seen.

[Red Badger]

I could use about a gallon of it............

[skeeter]

How in the world did you miss this?

[Red Badger]

Latisse?....does it come in a spray can?..............

[Red Badger]

LOL........I almost bought some.............

[skeeter]

Just be thankful you weren’t one of those early recipients of a hair transplant like the middle eastern looking guy in the infomercial.

So, if I get a cowlick that stands for more than 4 hours, should I call my doctor?

[advertising guy]

I put a gob of it on my ole bald head and went to bed

it got warm and oozed to my back

now I have a combover between my shoulders

[NativeSon]

I'd be freebasing that stuff right now.

I needed a laugh - but not coffee on my keyboard

This is encouraging! I need something to replace “Zeng Zau’s Cure for Baldness.” I don’t like the issues it causes with my, my, err, well, my Man Parts.

I use the drops for glaucoma in only one eye. I’ve used them for about 4 months. “Longer and darker eyelashes” is listed as a side effect. I do think mine have grown a little on the eyelids where I use it.

[Red Badger]

Try a drop or two on your bald spots, if any.........
