Every time I see a picture of myself, I’m reminded that I part my hair the “wrong” way. IOW, it’s the opposite of what I see in the mirror. I go from left to right and I’m right handed but I don’t know if “handedness” plays a role, hence to poll.
I’m exactly like you. The part is on my left side, I comb (most of) my hair to the right and back, and then when I look at pictures of me later everything looks backwards and weird.
ETA: I’m right-handed too.
I’m 54. I loved the hippie center part of the day, like Lennon, etc. My hair is short now, but still full, and I still have the hippie center part.
And always will.

If it’s short, a center part is not a “hippie part”, IMO. Short hair parted in the middle is the 1920s part.
Which side, the side I part it on, or the me in the mirror? It’s so terribly confusing. If I only had a patch over one eye, I might be able to figure it out.
Yep.
That’s me!

I’m right-handed. When I had hair, the part was on my left. It’s how my father did it, so that’s how I did it.
I part mine in the middle of my head. From ear to ear.
I’m right-handed and part it on the right. Not by choice really, I used to part it in the middle then eventually gave up because it could never be symmetrical, even with heavy hair gel. It wants to be parted where I part it, it pretty much parts itself.
I once tried parting it on the left. That was crazy, it looked like my hair was parted twice in a lopsided way. I just part it where it wants to be and it’s easy to maintain.
Not a man, but I have a very short haircut. I am right-handed and part my hair on my left. I tried it on the right one day and felt off all day.
Right handed, down the middle.
Back when I had hair, right handed and from right to left. These days the part nature and medications have built in is so large as to make other aspects moot.
depends on what my hair is doing that day.
Li’l Abner, hillbilly comic character by Al Capp, had an interesting quirk in his part that you might not see so often in real life: His hair was always parted on the side facing the viewer. If he was drawn in left profile in one frame and right profile in the next frame, the part changed sides.
ETA: Example.
Long hair, part in the middle…like a proper hippie.
I have on occasion parted off center, but it’s a bit feminine-looking.

I have long hair that I brush straight back. But, unless I tie it back, it falls forward again, in a naturally-forming part from the right.
Ever since I can remember, I’ve always parted my hair on the right. I’m right handed as well. I remember my dad trying to get me to part it on the left and it felt so awful that I would re-comb it with the part on the right.
Long hair … down the middle … just like Jesus did …
It’s been a very long time, but my hair does have a natural part, but alas I’ve forgotten which side that is … however, I am right handed in must everything except holding a hockey stick …
But then your eye-patch will be over the wrong eye when you look in the mirror … how will you see anything at all? … you see the mirror, just nothing reflected in the mirror … that’s just weird … you’ll have to move the eye patch over to the other eye to see your reflection … you won’t see the mirror but you will see the things reflected in the mirror … [sigh] … that must get confusing …
Someone else did that. I thought it was Ed Dodd with Mark Trail but I’m not finding a reference.
Through third grade, my hair was parted on one side, but I forget which one. I then went partless through 10th grade when I started with the middle part. Around 21 years old, I started doing the brush it straight back while wet and letting it curl up as it dried thing, but by 35 so much had let go, I began getting 1/2" buzz cuts.
There is one hair parting thing I don’t get- bald guys with a dozen 6-10" long hairs combed over the top. My uncle does this. Why? That tiny lock of hair isn’t fooling anyone and just looks silly.
