- After detangling or combing your hair, divide it into pigtails. Clip one section out of the way while you work to make it easier.
- Split your hair in half, gripping both sections in each hand. Then, with your pointed finger, pull a small piece of hair from the outside of the left section and cross it over, joining it on the inside of the right section.
- Repeat on the other side, pulling a piece of hair from the outside of the right section and crossing it over to the inside of the left section.
- Keep braiding to the ends, then secure your fishtail braid with an elastic. Unclip the other half of your hair and repeat until you have two fishtail braids.
- Then, fatten up the braids by tugging on the edges of the fishtails for an intentionally undone look.
