Under the procedure, a small incision is made at the back of the scalp to remove 30 or 40 hair follicles which are carefully sewn one by one onto the patient's eyelids. Only light sedation and local anesthetics are used and the cost is around $3,000 an eye.

The surgery is not for everyone. The transplanted eyelashes grow just like head hair and need to be trimmed regularly and sometimes curled. Very curly head hair makes for eyelashes with too much kink.

you can always go for the curly, cuuuurly lash.  never need one of those new-fandangled eyelash curlers. but i don't want you ever telling me that's your eyelash in my fries.

or...if you're Italian...you should have an overabundance of butt hair ;-)

this could be interesting.
