Ok so for my ENTIRE life I have had a side part, I never forced it or anything, it just naturally happened. All of a sudden now though, my hair has been parting in the middle. Like, not slightly more towards the middle than it usually is, it's dead center. I haven't been doing anything different with my hair or anything, it just randomly happened! I'm not saying it the worst thing ever and I NEED to change it, I kinda like the way it looks and I can still part my hair myself on the side and it'll stay, I'm just a tad confused.
Has this happened to anyone else? I don't understand why this is happening, is it normal?
This is completely normal. Except for the times that my hair has been shorter than chin-length, my part will vary from the right side to the middle. However, it will sometimes part more easily on the left side particularly if I've worn it in an updo. I'm used to my part migrating, and know to let stylists know in advance before any cut.
