- Bring vinegars, sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 cup water to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Let cool.
- Meanwhile, place eggs in a medium saucepan and add water to cover by 2". Bring to a boil, cover, and remove from heat. Let sit 10 minutes. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool. Drain, peel, and return to bowl. Add pickling liquid; cover and chill at least 12 hours. Remove eggs from pickling liquid. Coarsely chop; mix with mayonnaise, chives, and parsley in a medium bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and some pickling liquid, if desired.

- Do ahead: Eggs can be pickled 1 week ahead. Keep chilled.
