This is something I have started to experiment recently and this video tutorial was really helpful! Just stay patient, pause the video when you need to, and you will have a cascading braid in no time.

The Fishtail

The fishtail, although it looks intimidating, is probably one of the easiest braids to accomplish. Here is a step by step explanation of the perfect fishtail:

1. divide your hair in to two sections
2. take a small amount of hair from the outside of the left section and cross it over the section to add it to 3. the inside of the right
4. take a small amount of hair from the outside of the right section and cross it over the section to add it to the inside of the left
5. continue until the fishtail is done


Yes, it really is that simple. Here is the final product:

Let's Talk About Hair

Okay, so recently I've gotten a lot of attention for my ability to do hair. But once you master a proper french braid, everything else comes easily. I would like to introduce my 3 favorite types of braids:

1. classic french
2. fishtail
3. waterfall

Your french braid may be pretty ratchet in the beginning, but the more your practice the better it gets (I promise.)
