How To Do A Fishtail Braid
Divide The Hair
First, after combing and brushing the hair, divide the hair in two equal sections. The parting line should be straight for a neater look. So, the fishtail braid requires only two sections unlike the other traditional braids.
Take Thin Strand from One Section
Now, from two divided sections, take a thin strand out of left section. Take this thin strand and mix it with the other strand. Re-grip both strands for a neater look. Small strands taken from the sections make more decent braid.
Repeat On Other Section
After mixing the thin strand to second section, take a small strand from this second section in the same way and mix it to the first section.
Keep Repeating Until End Reached
Keep repeating the steps until the end of braid is reached. Take even strands for a neater look.
Finish Braid
At the end of the braid, tie it with a rubber band. If the braid is too tight, loosen it with your fingers.
Enjoy The Braid
Enjoy this beautiful looking braid for the whole day.
