You should be able to tell if they were cut, I'd have thought. A non-cut
eyelash gets thinner towards the end.
It sounds unlikely to me that both sets of eyelashes were cut, if one side
is markedly shorter than the other then it would seem more likely. Is it
possible that her eyelashes just are short? Are they definitely shorter
than
usual.
I remember going through a phase of pulling at my eylashes. I did it
because
my eye was sore and I kept thinking I had an eyelash in it, and I did pull
quite a few out. It turned out I had a stye inside the eyelid.
