I like to stare at them until the owner of those thick blonde lashes feels extremely uncomfortable...and then I try to pet them and freak the owner out the rest of the way.

Although the victim I usually do this to (one of my little nieces) has pink eyelashes that go with her orange hair. I have no blonde nieces, which is okay, becuase red is better.

PINK? Oh maaaaan my genetics feel bad about themselves now.

I can just see you trying to pet someone's eyelashes.

I usually use a metal dip pen (I like the scratchy sound ) But lately I've been usuing a variety of fine point pens and colligraphy markers, because they're a lot easier to pack around without risk of spilling ink bottles or breaking the pen nib or accidentally stabbing someone with it...which would also break the pen nib.

I've always spelled it blonde. In fact the first time I saw the "blond" spelling was a few months ago when I got a new spellcheck on my computer and it kept telling me I was spelling "blond" wrong, which isn't right, because the dictionary says it can be spelled either way. (Even the French spell it both ways...since it's a French word) So I got rid of that stupid spellcheck and have been cheerfully spelling blonde the way I like it. And after reading some of the other comments on this picture, I'm not the only Western American who spells it blonde...unless they're just copying my spellin. I guess it just looks better that way.

I know how to color them, but the hard part is keeping them from blending in to the skin color. Just like my orange-haired neice, most people have to look twice to see her eyebrows because they blend in so much.

true dat. I figured you'd know how, being fantastic and all, but it's really hard to get them to stand out. I've practically dyed my eyelashes because I need so much mascara and it doesn't even come off all the way anymore.

I always imagined it would really be a pain to have "invisible" eyelashes (as my family calls them). I feel bad for my orange-haired niece. We've (nicely) teased her so much about her invisible eyebrows and lashes that the poor kid will probably overdose on mascara and eyebrow liner when she's old enough to wear makeup. No, but we always tell her how cute she is after we tease her, because she is.

hah yeah. Mine were never very blonde, but definitely have changed color since I started wearing makeup. My friend Justin has really thick, blonde eyelashes and eyebrows. They're like COW EYELASHES. I always tell him how fantastic they are. Keep telling your niece or she'll end up like me, with muddy brown lashes...ew
