Most of the boys had a whorl to their right. The girls were harder to tell, most of them had longer hair that made it hard to tell where the whorl was for sure. They seemed to mostly have whorls set to their left though. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"e2v9k\" data-offset-key=\"7f3ce-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"7f3ce-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"7f3ce-0-0\">As I talked to a mother afterwards who has horses and knows about my whorl interests I mentioned the forelock whorl.
