Step 1
Part your hair into two even sections.
Step 2
Take a small strand of hair from underneath one of the sections and bring it over to the other side.
Step 3
Take a small strand of hair from underneath the other section and bring it over to the first section.
Step 4
Repeat steps 2 & 3 until all your hair is braided -- be sure to hold the braid tightly for each strand to make the fishtail effect more defined.
Step 5
For a slightly messier look, pull a few strands around your face out of the braid.
Step 6

Thanks SO MUCH for putting a video, because i could never figure out how to do this! I tried it and it worked the first time... although not as pretty. lol
Takes practice i guess.
