Topic: Hair Parting Posted: January 23 2013 at 20:52 |
OK this is a bit of a silly poll, but I'm a middler. I parted on one side as a kid but damned if I can't tell you guys which side until I dig up a photo. For some crazy reason I was noticing parts and I don't think this has been polled yet.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I've been wearing my hair short enough that I haven't used a comb or brush in years. So it's not really parted either way, it just kind of sits there on the fence.

It's kind of funny because I often let my hair go long and then go short, but I still part, though when it's short I may not.

I have a natural sort of "valley" on my head due to a receding hairline, creating a "V" which I guess passes for a part now.

I generally keep my hair short enough that it doesn't need a part.

None atm. Too short to part.
When I let it grow out I parted it in the middle.

In England in the 1960s it was a convention that boys parted their hair on the left and the girls on the right, failure to do so would result in relentless playground taunting and much misery. Quite why this should be is a mystery but may have something to with why shirts and jackets button left over right for men and right over left for women, but the reasons for that aren't clear either. The only place where gender-biased handedness makes any sense is in sleeping bags.
My hair naturally parts on the left, even though since it is long and has been for over 25 years I purposely part it in the middle, each morning when I step out of the shower I have a left parting.

My hair is naturally parted on the left half, so I part it on the left half by hand, with a comb, or with a brush. There was a time when my barbers would come up with their own ideas on how my hair could be arranged, but I would always "correct" them just by showing them that I prefer to part my hair on the left half, on the left half, ... [whoosh] ... like that.

Why do I have to have the fork in my left hand and the knife in the right hand? Something for me to Google about.

Doesn't matter, cos the beards of thought grow longer overnight.

As a kid my mother parted it at the left side of my head. When I grew older, I combed it all backwards, no parting (in the 1980's). Then, when that was out of fashion, I parted it in the middle, and I still do.
