Who wears fake eyelashes?

Ok so theres sooo many people wearing fake eyelashes and I want to try them too but ever since I had a friend in high school who literally had all her lashes fall out from wearing them, ive been scarred for life. So I wanna know, if any of you guys that wear lashes, have you experienced lashes falling out a lot, how long you've been wearing them, or If I should even be worried in the first place??
