The Foxy Fishtail

This braided style is incredibly simple and it is a great way to keep your hair out of your face without losing style points.



How To Style:

1. Begin by gathering your hair into a high ponytail and securing it with a ponytail holder.
2. Begin your fishtail braid by separating the ponytail into two sections and grabbing small pieces from the outside of each section and bringing them to meet in the middle. Proceed until the whole ponytail is braided.
3. Secure the bottom with a ponytail holder.
4. Spray everything with a light hold finishing spray.

Best Face Shape and Hair Type:
This style is absolutely stunning on someone with long, thick hair. It will accentuate an oval or oblong face shape.

I love to use a bit of a shine serum in a braid. It helps to hide any flyaways and it also makes the braid look shiny and soft. Try Moroccan Oil Treatment!
