Have you ever looked at your boyfriend, brother or even a friend and felt Damn! You don’t even need those pretty long lashes. Ladies, most of you will agree with me that we have seen way more men with naturally long eyelashes than women and secretly we are jealous of it. But have you ever wondered what exactly is the reason behind this? I mean, so less goes into their skin care and grooming yet such beautiful eyelashes that you have been craving for?

Well, that exactly what we are going to discuss today.

Why Men Have Longer Eyelashes?

To be honest, the length of your lashes does not depend on your gender entirely. What we see as a mere cosmetic feature actually serves a very important purpose. The purpose of your eyelashes is to protect your eyes and keep of dust, so what mostly affects the length of your lashes is the the width of your eyes. Yes, that is true and as you know, the width of your eyes entirely depends on your genetics.

Now that being said, there is another factor which affects the length of your eyelashes; Testosterone. Men generally have a higher amount of testosterone which is a male dominant hormone which increases the growth of your body hair and hence men do have higher chances of getting thick long eyelashes as compared to women.

Why Women Tend To Have Shorter Eyelashes Than Men?

When women ask me why men have longer lashes, the question that i like to answer more is why women have shorter lashes. Ladies, its all because of your routine. The constant use of fake lashes, torturing your lashes with the curler and the biggest mistake- sleeping with your makeup on; especially your mascara does more damage to your lashes than you can ever imagine.

Makeup makes your lashes stiff and hence more prone to breakage. Same goes with the curler and fake lashes, They make your lashes brittle and break easily.

So this was why men tend to have longer eyelashes. The health of your eyelashes depend largely on your routine and well you take care of them.

I hope i could satisfy your query and if you have anything more to ask, let me known in then comment section below.

Cheers!
