Step By Step :
1/. Split the hair into two sections
2/. Take a fine piece of hair from one section and bring it over and then a fine piece of hair from the other section and bring it across.
3/. Repeat this all the way down to the end of the hair.
4/. Keep sections very fine to ensure the fishtail effect. (larger sections make it look more like a normal plait or braid).
5/. Loosen the plait gently to define the fishtail look.
6/. Tie with a band.
7/. Leave a small amount of hair out around the hair line to ensure a super-feminine, soft and effortless style.
8/. Spritz with dry, strong hold hair spray to control all the fly-away bits.
