Is it true that if you cut baby's eyelashes, they will grow longer and thicker? Has anyone tried this?

I don't buy it. Eyelashes are there for a reason, to protect the eyes. Trimming them too short may cause irritation to the baby and make the eyelashes lose its function. https://www.consumerhealthdigest.com/eyelash-care/does-trimming-make-eyelashes-grow-longer.html
