The fishtail braid is something that I have yet to master, but I love the way it looks. It creates an entirely different look than a regular braid with so much more detail. The herringbone pattern makes is more of a fashion statement and it looks so sweet for the (FINALLY) warming weather.
Here is a step-by-step to help you (and I) learn to create a fishtail:
-Run a pea-sized drop of Brazilian Gloss Smoothing Serum through your hair (preferably dry) to help smooth the hair.
-Separate your hair into 2 equal sections at the nape
-Then starting from the outside, take a small section from the right side, and cross it over to the inside of the left section. (If you grab from underneath rather than the side it will create a more scaled look)
-Continue switching sides all the way down until you are satisfied with the length.
-Secure with a ponytail elastic.
To create a messy look like the one pictured, pull out face framing pieces and rough up the braid once secure. Don’t worry about perfection, the less perfect, the more bohemian!
Happy Fishin’!
