Eyebrows: DONE        Eyelashes: Week 10

Day 71 (April 15, 2019)

Hey God!

            I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! The hairs on the right side of my right eyelash line are almost at their full length and that area, which once looked extremely sparse, has really filled in. (Can you believe it, Lord!? We are almost there!!) Soon, I will be able to where mascara on eyelashes that are full and lush. But I will be honest, Lord. I know that my eyelashes are weak now—due to years and years of pulling—and wearing mascara on the weak eyelashes will make them even more susceptible to falling out prematurely. So, I just might start wearing mascara on special occasions or meaningful outings only, and that is fine by me. I have actually started really liking how I look all natural. (Well, with a small hint of eyeshadow because that is fun to play with, and I like to make these baby blues of mine pop.)

            Lord, the end of my hair re-growth process is so close I can taste it! I am praying so hard that I make it. In the last few days, I have experienced some trying things, and my hands always tend to gravitate towards my eyelashes and eyebrows when I am feeling overwhelmed. I just need to try and not pull so I can make it to the end with flying colors. (Lord, I just gotta!) I realize that there will most likely be times ahead that I struggle terribly with pulling, but I am praying that, at least for this time, I can make it to the goal I have set for myself without a second major setback. Honestly, my hair re-growth process should have been done about a week ago, so I should have been able to say I made it to my goal already, but my right eyelash line is going at its own speed, so I will have to stay strong for one more week.

            I can definitely stay strong for one more week! (Lord, with your help I know I can do that!) ONLY SEVEN MORE DAYS!! Ha, six days if you want to utilize “Kaitlan Counting.” And why wouldn’t you, Lord!? You see, I never count the day I am on because I figure it is about over—even if I am counting in the morning lol—and I never count the day I am looking forward to because it would not make sense to count that day as a day to count away. So, Lord, my goal is even closer than I first let on. The countdown is almost on one hand! That is so doable. Only one more week, and my eyelashes and eyebrows will all be fully grown in, and my patience and hard work will have finally paid off. One more week, Lord. Just one more week.

Always,

Your Daughter Kaitlan

P.S. Lord, will you help each one of us make it to the hair re-growth goal we have set for ourselves? I am sure there are others who are at a similar point in their hair re-growth process, same as me, and are hoping and praying they can make it just a few more days without pulling. Please help each one of us to not give into our hair pulling urges—help us to not take any steps back—in order that we may make it to our hair re-growth goals with flying colors. Thank you so much, Lord. Your help means so much to us.
