Here comes the first tutorial that will teach you how to fishtail braid your own hair. Dutch fishtail braids are essentials for girls who want to create an elegant girly look. Can’t wait for it? Let’s see how you can do that:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    \r\n \t
  1. Part your hair on the right side.<\/li>\r\n \t
  2. Then, pick up a section of your hair that is on the heavy side.<\/li>\r\n \t
  3. Divide this section into three new sections.<\/li>\r\n \t
  4. Start your dutch braid just like you do with a regular braid: cross the side strands under the middle strand to make a stitch.<\/li>\r\n \t
  5. Make two sections of your hair by combining the middle and back strand together.<\/li>\r\n \t
  6. Start doing a fishtail braid: cross a small section from the right side just under the opposite one.<\/li>\r\n \t
  7. Then carry in a new section of your hair, cross it to the left side.<\/li>\r\n \t
  8. Cross a small section from the left side under to the right side again and carry in a new section.<\/li>\r\n \t
  9. Repeat all the steps until your braid reaches your left temple.<\/li>\r\n \t
  10. Once it reaches the temple, continue to braid the rest of the sections going down to your ends.<\/li>\r\n \t
  11. When your braid is finished, pull on its edges to make it look fuller.<\/li>\r\n \t
  12. Criss-cross two pins over the bottom of your braid and wrap it around the back of your head. Pin it in place!<\/li>\r\n \t
  13. The remaining hair over your left shoulder must be included in your braid. Just braid it in.<\/li>\r\n \t
  14. Use some hairspray to smooth down any loose hair and enjoy your lovely hairstyle!<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

    This fishtail braid tutorial is all about femininity and delicacy. This summer we all want to flaunt with our beautiful hair, and braided half updos know how to make it look even more glorious. Follow these steps:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

      \r\n \t
    1. Divide off a section of your hair at the top of your head. Tie it with an elastic band.<\/li>\r\n \t
    2. Use a small section of your hair to hide the band: wrap it around the band and secure it with a bobby pin.<\/li>\r\n \t
    3. Divide the section you wrapped into two halves.<\/li>\r\n \t
    4. Braid these halves into a dutch fishtail: cross small sections from the outer edges of your hair to the opposite side.<\/li>\r\n \t
    5. Once your braid reaches the top of your ears, start braiding some more sections of a regular fishtail braid: cross the side strands under the opposite side, and don’t carry in any new sections.<\/li>\r\n \t
    6. Pull on the edges all over the braid to make it look fuller.<\/li>\r\n \t
    7. Tie off your braid with a band.<\/li>\r\n \t
    8. Then hide it just like you did with the previous one.<\/li>\r\n \t
    9. Soft waves can be a good complement to your look, but it’s optional.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

        4. Then take a small section of hair from the outer edge on the left side.<\/li>\r\n \t
        5. Add it to the right half by crossing this small section over the top.<\/li>\r\n \t
        6. Now, vice versa: a small section from the outer edge of the right half crosses over the top to the left side.<\/li>\r\n \t
        7. Go on crossing small sections of hair right to the opposite side. Make sure you are braiding down to the bottom.<\/li>\r\n \t
        8. Pull on the edges to make your hairstyle look bigger and fuller.<\/li>\r\n \t
        9. Tie it with the band and...that’s it.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

          1. Make your parting on the right side and take a front section of hair on the heavy part. Divide it into two sections.<\/li>\r\n \t
          2. Pick a small piece from the back section, cross it over the top and add it into another section which is at the front. Take a strand of hair from the front section and cross it over the top adding it to the back section. Take another piece of hair crossing it over and then pick up a new section of hair crossing it over the top putting it into the strand too.<\/li>\r\n \t
          3. Repeat the same process for the front section until your fishtail reaches the top of the ear.<\/li>\r\n \t
          4. Continue braiding into a regular fishtail braid.<\/li>\r\n \t
          5. Pull out the strands of hair a bit for more volume and tie your hairstyle up with an elastic.<\/li>\r\n \t
          6. Create a regular fishtail braid with the rest of the hair and pull out strands for more volume.<\/li>\r\n \t
          7. Twist the regular fishtail you have created to make a bun and pin it up to secure the hairdo on your head.<\/li>\r\n \t
          8. Twist the hair on the sides to add relaxed details to the hairstyle and pin these details up.<\/li>\r\n \t
          9. Pick up the front fishtail braid and wrap it carefully around the bun fixing it with bobby pins. If desired, you can loosen the fishtail braid a bit more.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

              Hair tutorials are so essential for more intricate kinds of braids, such as box braids<\/a><\/span>, waterfall braids, French braids, and fishtail braids, too. So, let us start.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

                \r\n \t
              1. First you need to decide whether you opt for a messier or a smoother look. You can achieve a smoother look by brushing the hair before starting. And a messier look can be achieved if you use your fingers rather than a brush to part your hair.<\/li>\r\n \t
              2. Almost all braided hairstyles <\/a>require you to use hair elastics to fix them. So, the next step is to take a small clear elastic and do a ponytail.<\/li>\r\n \t
              3. After it is done, divide your ponytail into two equal sections.<\/li>\r\n \t
              4. Now take a strand from the left section and move it to the right section.<\/li>\r\n \t
              5. Next, take a strand from the right section and move it to the left section.<\/li>\r\n \t
              6. Repeat this process till the braid is finished.<\/li>\r\n \t
              7. Finally, take scissors and remove that small clear elastic.<\/li>\r\n \t
              8. Now go try to create a fishtail braid. We are sure that you will succeed.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n
