Parting Hair in the Same Spot....

[hot_pepper96]

Guys,

Has anyone noticed that parting your hair in the same spot have caused the hair to thin out or appear thin in some areas?

 

[JustKiya]

I haven't, but I've heard of it happenening and it makes sense - you would be exposing the same spot to repeated stress, and potential breakage. It concerned me enough that I stopped parting in the same spot, and do styles that don't require that....

No. I've been parting my hair down the middle for over 10 years with no ill effects.

 

[joyous]

I have this problem.

 

[Je Ne Sais Quoi]

I have that fear so I need to try to stop parting my hair in the same area too! I haven't noticed anything negative but it's strange how the parts seem permanent even after washing my hair.

I don't part my hair straight down the middle on a regular basis but when I'm washing my hair, it always automatically separates in the middle.

Nope.
I had a centre parting for about 7 years and there was no thinning.

(I have a side parting now, I think it works better than a centre parting for above shoulder length hair on me)

It has been over 10 years for me also. No problems at all.

I've never had an issue with a part thinning my hair in any way. I know this is a little off topic but I generally have more issues with the side I sleep on. It tends to be thinner since my scarf slides back when I sleep.

I don't continually part my hair in the same spot. (well, there was a time I didn't have any hair to part either)

I just switch it like every 4 days out of sheer boredom. Sometimes I don't like wearing a part at all.

I've never noticed that, but I'll pay more attention from now on.

Nope, not me, and I almost always part my hair in the same spot.

I am a center parter myself. No ill effects either. But then again I don't put it in styles that tug from the part either.
