Last week on my Fashion Friday post, I posted a cute hairstyle that seems to be super popular for fall!
It's the fishtail braid. And because I received more than a few e-mails on how to do the braid, I figured I'll do a tutorial for all of you! Here's the breakdown. My adorable roommate Anna modeled (:
Divide the top part of your hair into two sections.
Grab a 1/2 inch strand of hair from the left side and bring it to the right side. Pull tight. Next, grab the same thickness of hair from the right side and bring it to the left side, making sure to keep each side separate from one another. Pull tight. Do this without twisting hair under like a braid. This is simply moving one small section of hair to the opposite side.
Keep repeating these steps until you run out of hair.
Once your done, secure with an elastic and you can pull out a few strands and curl them or crimp them or whatever you feel like doing, just to give it a more relaxed look.
I like to put in a cute headband first then do the fishtail so the front part of my hair isn't in my face:
Here's another example of an adorable fishtail from Whippy Cake:
{PS. I asked for this glamour band for Christmas (: }
Hope this helps! Let me know if you give it a whirl!
Love and Braids,
