The Fishtail Braid
March 28, 2011 § 13 Comments
This week at work my coworkers and I got talking about the fishtail braid. We all decided it needs to get more attention because it is extremely underrated. After discussing it and then doing this demo on my coworker Courtney’s hair (above), I was inspired to find more ways to make this braid work. First, this how-to I found on Allure will give you the steps to master the technique. Practice makes perfect! Then I found these variations on the braid as seen on celebrities to experiment. This braid is much easier to practice on someone else, so if you can, find a friend (or a coworker) to experiment with. ♥
I love it..the braid bar in west hollywood has it for one of their offerings!
oooh I will have to check it out! let me know on FB if lunch this week works. I could do Tues-Thurs!
What a fantastic look! Sloppy yet sexy! I am going to try it this week!
I think so too! I love the messy looks
Minka Kelly’s is absolutely beautiful ❤
I think I'll give this a go tomorrow, it's always seemed very daunting to me but I really want to master it!

Oh I bet it looks so great on your hair!
I can never make this braid work! I think it’s because I don’t have very thick hair. I wonder if you could do a thin fishtail braid (sort of a hippie-ish accent braid).
