Fishtail Braid Hair Tutorial



Hair+Side fishtail braid hair tutoria, fishtail video



Even though there are tons of fishtail hair tutorials on youtube ...I keep getting requests for one. So, I give you . . . a fishtail {sorry it's a little dark} but enjoy.





side fishtail braid tutorial


Back of Fishtail and floral neck tattoo



Once you know how to fishtail, doing them for any hairstyle is quite simple. The one I did in the photos from the outfit post below has just a teensy twist: with hair parted in the center, fishtail each side sections down but instead of using the hairs from the "back" your going to almost french braid the front ones in ...make sense?

When I do this style, I sometimes have a hole left at the start of the braid in the middle--does this make sense? Any suggestions how to avoid this?

Just wanted to thank you so much for all your hair ideas. And you are so easy to learn from. I have a six year old daughter who loves having her hair done and we always do it in cool ways for school. I love getting new ideas. Thank you so much!!!
