The Lesser Known Sassy and Simple Braiding Technique

Quick Weave HairstylesFishtail plait is an excellent choice if you are looking for quick weave hairstyles, easy to do, but looking sensational. Fishtail plait is much simpler than French or Dutch braid and if you already have some experience in weaving, learning this new technique will take you only few minutes. Like with every other kind of plait, Fishtail can be created only on long hair, shoulder length is minimum. Fortunately, braids are great hairdos if you want to incorporate hair extensions into your hairstyle: they will blend better with your natural hair and you don’t have to worry about the extensions falling out of your hair.

Contrastingly to the regular braiding style, you start weaving the fishtail by dividing your hair into two, not three sections. Start from taking a small piece of hair from behind the left section, bring it over the left section and to the right side, mixing it with the rest of the hair in the right section. Now take the small piece of hair from behind the right section, bring it over the right section and to the left side, mixing it with the rest of the hair in the left section. This is the basic pattern for fishtail plait. Continue in the same fashion until you reach the hair ends. Secure it with an elastic band.

You can see now the difference between fishtail shape and the regular braid: there is a kind of “row” in the center of the fishtail and the hair sections seem to be falling into the row. It is definitely a more sophisticated pattern than the regular braid. You style your fishtail in a loose manner by simply pulling out the hair strands from the plait. If you want your hair to be sleek and smooth, start making the braid on damp hair or wet them with water spray before weaving.
