How to do the Fishtail Braid



You might have noticed a different kind of braid around town these days. It’s called the Fishtail, and it looks like a very complicated, tricky hairstyle, but it’s not! 
It’s easy and thankfully braids are forever in style.  If you follow Leah’s super easy steps, you can do it too. 





























We found this neat link..worth the read!


Leah's Steps:





(This is our first ever Crazy Daisies video. Bear with us dear readers as we learn the art of cinematography : )

Step 1: Divide hair into two sections 

Step 2: Take an inch piece of hair from the left side and cross it over into the hair in your right hand. I like to press my thumb against the piece of hair so that it doesn’t move. 

Step 3: Do the same thing to the other side :) Take a piece of hair from the right, an inch thick and cross it over to the hair in your left hand. 

Now repeat that over and over! 

The idea is to weave the hair back and forth, from left to right. 
It’s ok if loose ends stick out, looks more messy. If you want a more sleeker braid, do it when it’s wet and then hairspray.
