Trend Alert: The Fishtail Braid/Plait

I’m sure you’ve all seen the fab new Fishtail Braid / Plait trend popping up in magazines and on celebs everywhere by now and we think this style looks great with uber long hair extensions. A HeadKandy full head set in 20-22” or 24-26” would be perfect for making a statement with this look!

Step One

Once you’ve fitted your extensions it's time to make your fishtail braid / plait, pull all your hair (including your extensions) around to the side opposite to your parting and loosely divide it into two parts.

Step Two

Take a small piece of hair from the outside of one section and bring it into the middle to join the other section of hair. Continue this on the other side, but remember to pull the hair quite tight!! Continue this braiding method until you reach the end of your hair and extensions and then secure it with a clear elastic.

Step Three

Now grip the end of your braid firmly so the hair doesn’t come loose and gently pull out sections on both sides. Rub the strands between your fingers to loosen them. Do this for all of your braid or until you’re happy that you’ve created the ‘mussed-up’ Fishtail Braid /Plait look that’s bang on trend at the moment!!
