Can you insert someone else's hair follicles into your eyelids when performing eyelash/eyebrow transplant?

My eyelashes are incredibly tiny . They are tiny, curly, and messy! I don't like them at all. It makes my eyes look different. I understand that performing eyelash transplant , doctors would have to use your hair follicles from the back of your head than insert it back into your eyelids (correct me if I'm wrong) . I wanted to know if it would be possible to remove my lashes from my lids and than use someone else's hair follicles to grow out lashes ?
