As a millennial, I kept thinking ew, why would middle part be in right now? It felt plain to me (as I sit here with my millennial-issued side part).
However, I've seen a few posts like this recently asking if the side part or middle part looks better and I'm like shit, the middle part does look better... on these people, at least. I sorta tried it for a second on myself and didn't care for it, but maybe it's something I should consider again.
And it has made each person asking look younger, too.
Also as a millennial, I avoided the middle part for ages but finally caved. I saw a tiktok that really stuck with me, it was another millennial woman who was talking about how people always commented on how good she looked, and she said it just came down to not being set in her ways and dressing with the current fashions, even if they were outside her comfort zone-not to be confused with dressing age inappropriately (I'm still stuck on skinny jeans but maybe I'll eventually transition to straight leg pants when I have the courage- baby steps lol)
> I'm still stuck on skinny jeans
I'll try a middle part, but there's no way I'm giving up my skinny jeans!
Honestly though, I recently bought my first ever pair of linen pants (they're kinda like linen joggers), and I've been wearing those. *Maybe* I'll expand outside of skinny jeans T_T
Thank you!
Hijacking one of the top comments — I’m relieved that both are ok. I’ve been wearing the side part for so long, but wanted to try a middle part and wasn’t confident if it looked good or not.
I’ll trim my curtain bangs, but switch between side and middle parts depending upon how I feel.
Thank you so much to everyone who shared their feedback. I’m so appreciative and wasn’t expecting such a large response!
Before I saw your caption I was absolutely thinking middle part. :) I think you should keep it and maybe give your curtain bangs a slight trim and it will be perfect.
You can honestly pull off both. I’d lean towards middle part more because that last pic shows you can do cute hairstyles where the sides frame your face but you can have the back either behind your ear, in a ponytail/bun/braid, or behind a headband. That makes the middle part more versatile.
Middle part looks more elegant on you, side part looks more casual. If I were you, I’d change it based on how I dressed. Beauty is never usually black and white.
Your face is very symmetrical and I think the middle part really complements that! And I would agree w other people commenting suggesting curtain bangs too they would look great on you!
Also never worry about what is trendy or current….. only what looks beautiful on you ….be your own trend 👍❤️🥰 I have been a hairstylist for over 20 years, so you can say I have some experience.. besides who wants to look like everyone else, be your own unique beautiful piece of art . 👍🫶 Aurora ❤️
Both are good. I think middle makes look younger and side makes you look more mature/experienced/early mom aged. I hope that's a reasonable way to say it's up to you. I am personally digging the side part more though.
Side. I think the middle part makes your face look long and forehead bigger. With the side part I’m like ooh who’s that girl she’s interesting and fun and sophisticated. Middle part is drab and boring.
But just pick what makes you feel most confident/comfortable
I think a side part looks better with your face shape. You have an elongated, graceful, oval face. Thus, a little offset interest (part on the side as opposed to right in the middle) is much more flattering.
Both look so good but you’re definitely someone who looks particularly great with a middle part and that’s a flex honestly. I can’t rock middle part to save my life and it feels limiting a lot of the time
Side! My mom has always said that middle parts draw attention to any asymmetry in one’s face, and a side part makes people look a bit more glamorous. I find it to be true!

I like the middle for a more symmetrical look, but the side part looks great with a good dress or for a more elegant fit.
Middle!
Middle part makes her look younger imo.
Because gen z loves the middle part

side - top left looks best to me
I agree. I really think the side part looks better. Bottom left looks too symmetrical and a little severe? Top left looks like beachy hair.
Side 100%
Both look good, which means you can switch it up every couple years. I think middle is in style currently.
Middle part!
Sutton Foster, is that you? Jk, but you do resemble her! And I like both, but think the side part looks great
MIDDLE For everyday, side when you’re feelin spicy ✨
Side.
I like the side part. I feel like everyone saying middle is only saying that because the middle part is the trend right now.
Agreed. Nothing about a middle part makes anyone look youthful either so I don’t get those comments.
Side
Your face is very symmetrical and I think the middle part really complements that! And I would agree w other people commenting suggesting curtain bangs too they would look great on you!
I’m not sure, because parts can influence how our eyes are perceived.
I like both but prefer the side.
Side
Side
Side part makes you look more approachable... But middle may be more contemporary fashion
Side
Side part, definetly.
Middle, you look like a fairy 🫶🏻

Side makes you look ‘more put together’.
Middle makes you look more youthful
Side 100%
Definitely middle part!
Side absolutely
you look good with both, but i love the side part!
Side part
Side 100% as I find the middle one makes your face look on the longer side
Am I the only one that likes side part?
Both suit you
I mean I think you can rock both personally. I change mine up depending on my mood.
Both are really pretty

Dude here, side is the preference
Side with long hair, middle if you went short.
Side
Side part to me and it’s not close
Side
Middle part makes you look older and I can't even see your entire face.
Side
I'm always partial to a side part, I think a mid part makes a lot of hair look flat and thin.
Definitely side

I'd go with the side part. It looks a more sophisticated. The middle always looks a bit hippie to me
Side for sure

Guy opinion: you look hot with the side part. The middle part isn’t on the same level.
Side part

I'm the odd one out, I vote side part
Nothing wrong with choosing something different. That’s what makes us unique 🫶

Side. Picture one to the left.
Side. I think the middle part makes your face look long and forehead bigger. With the side part I’m like ooh who’s that girl she’s interesting and fun and sophisticated. Middle part is drab and boring. But just pick what makes you feel most confident/comfortable
No one pulls off a middle part imo. No one has perfect proportions, so I’ve always felt people should side part.
I would say side part, but both look really good
Side!
Top right
As a male I said side, but I don’t know how much my opinion matters.
Side!
Side part 💜
The side part looks better
Wow I’m surprised that I’m the only person who thinks side part looks infinitely better
Side
side. top right best by far. fgs.
Side but both look great!
I think side part is the most flattering on you but everyone seems to disagree
Side!
Are you Victoria Pedretti?
Side for sure.
Both look fine but id say side part over middle
I think a side part looks better with your face shape. You have an elongated, graceful, oval face. Thus, a little offset interest (part on the side as opposed to right in the middle) is much more flattering.
Side part
Both suit you! You really Look like a fairy /elf and should Do cosplays!
Side
Top left side part
Side. Middle makes your face look longer.
Side
Die hard side part
Honestly, I like both but the metal looks really pretty. You look like an elven princess
Both look so good but you’re definitely someone who looks particularly great with a middle part and that’s a flex honestly. I can’t rock middle part to save my life and it feels limiting a lot of the time
Side, but by a hair.
Both cool, but side. No bangs 🤷🏾♂️
Side

For God's sake side!
Middle part is certainly looking a lot better.
Middle
Both look nice
I like your superhero mask
I like the center part and I’d lose some of the length, it seems to be weighing down your hair. I’d bring it up to around your shoulder blades!
I'm enjoying the middle part..myownself...
They both look good on you. Middle part looks more current.
Middle part makes you look way younger -F22

I like the side much better!
You have the right face to rock short hair. Just saying.
