Hi. My mother lost hair from lack of nutrition when dieting about ten years ago. Her eyelashes fell out, as did her eyebrows, and she lost hair in two patches on either side of her forehead. The eyelashes grew back, but that's it. Her doctor said that she had stayed on Atkins too long, and that that was one of the negative effects of Atkins. That and a leathery appearance to the skin and bad breath. Even if you're trying to cut carbs, make sure you don't go overboard with it.
