Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Pick up a small section of hair from the front of your hair, just behind your bangs. Divide into two pieces and begin a dutch fishtail braid. This is where you cross your strands under instead of over.
- After a couple of stitches, add in a small new pieces of hair to the strand you are crossing over to create a french fishtail.
- Stop adding in new hair once you have braided down a couple of inches. Continue your dutch fishtail all the way down.
- Go back and pancake your braid to create volume, secure with a small elastic.
- Next, pick up a small section of hair just behind your fishtail braid. Divide into two pieces and begin a dutch fishtail. Braid a couple of inches and then stop adding in new hair. Continue with a regular fishtail all the way down the hair.
- Go back and pancake your braid to create volume, then secure with a small elastic.
- Now, pick up two sections of hair from the front opposite side of your head. Twist them both backward into two twists.
- Pull your twists and braids to the back of your head (placed slightly to one side) and secure them all together with an elastic.
- Optional: pick up a small piece of hair next to your elastic and wrap around your elastic to create a hair wrapped pony. Secure with a bobby pin or tuck the end down through the elastic.
- Finish with hairspray {if desired}.
