1. Start with brushed hair that hasn’t been washed for 1 to 2 days. Unwashed hair has more grip than freshly-washed hair, so it will be easier to braid. If you just washed your hair, dry it first, then apply some dry shampoo to give it texture.

• This method will work for just about any hair texture and length, but it works better on hair that falls past your shoulders.
• If you have curly or frizzy hair, consider misting it with water. This will help the strands lay smoother and make them easier to work with.

2. Divide your hair into 3 equal-sized sections. Start by parting your hair as desired: centered or off to the side. Next, gather your hair and pull it towards the back of your head, like starting a low ponytail. Split your hair into 3 equal-sized sections.

• Some people find it easier to pull their hair back into an actual low ponytail. Keep in mind that you’ll have to remove the hair tie later if you do this.

3. Cross the left and right sections over the middle section. Take the left section and cross it over the middle section. Next, take the right section, and cross it over the new middle section.

• If you have curly hair, smooth it down before and after each cross over. This will help give you a neater braid.

4. Repeat the process until you reach the end of your hair. Ideally, you should keep braiding until it becomes difficult to cross the left and right sections over the middle one. This is really up to you, however.

• If you have curly hair, consider braiding only a third or halfway down and leaving the rest of your hair loose. This will show off your beautiful curls.

5. Secure the end of your braid with a hair tie. Most people like to match the hair tie to their hair color, but other people like to use a bright, vibrant color. Once you have your braid tied, you are done!

• How many times you wrap the hair tie around your braid depends on how thick it is. Expect to wrap it at least 3 times.

6. Brush your hair back, then pull it into a half-up ponytail. Use a brush or comb to smooth your hair back so that your center part disappears. Gather your hair into a half-up ponytail at the level of your eyebrows or temples.

• Consider misting your hair with water from a spray bottle. This will make it easier to work with.
• If your hair is smooth and slippery, consider applying some dry shampoo to it to give it some texture.

7. Begin a basic braid. Split your half-up ponytail into 3 equal-sized sections. Take the left section and cross it over the middle one. Next, take the right section, and cross it over the new middle section.

• For a Dutch or reverse French braid, cross the sections under the middle one.

8. Add some hair to the left section and cross it over the middle one. Gather a thin strand of hair from the left side of your hairline and add it to the left section. Take the now-thicker left section and cross it over the middle one.

• Some people find it easier to cross the left section over first, then add the extra strand.
• For a Dutch braid, cross the section under the middle one instead of over.

9. Add some hair to the right section, then cross it over the middle one. Use the same process that you did for the left side, but in reverse. Gather a small strand of hair from the right side of your hairline and add it to the right section. Cross it over the new middle section.

• Remember to cross the section under for a Dutch braid.

10. Repeat the process until you reach your nape. Keep gathering thin strands of hair from the left and right side of your hairline and adding them to the left and right sections. Cross the sections over the middle one for French braids, and under for cornrows.

11. Finish with a regular braid, then secure it with a hair tie. How far down you braid is up to you. You can braid all the way down, or just part-way. Just remember: cross over for French braids, and under for Dutch braids.

• Match the hair tie to the color of your hair or use a vibrant color for a stylish look.
• Add a fancy hair clip or flower to the end of your braid for a cute touch.

12. Start with neatly brushed hair. This method creates an intricate-looking braid, so it will work the best on straightened hair. You can still do it with curly or wavy hair, but you’ll have to smooth your hair down often.

• Consider dampening your hair with some water first. This will make it easier to braid.

13. Pull your hair back into a low ponytail, then split it into 2 sections. You don’t have to tie your ponytail off with a hair tie, although this will make things easier. Keep in mind that you will have to cut the hair tie off later, after you have completed your braid.

• Unlike other braids, fishtail braids only require 2 sections.
• You can have your hair pulled back so that there is no part whatsoever, or you can leave your part.
• A side-part would look especially cute with this style, but you can do a center-part too. Use a rat-tail comb to create the part.

14. Take a strand from under the left section and add it to the right. Pull out a thin strand of hair from under the left section. Bring it across the left section and add it to the right. It is now a part of the right section.

15. Take a strand from under the right section and add it to the left. This is just like for the left side. Take a thin piece of hair from under the right section, cross it over the right section, and add it to the left.

16. Repeat the process until you reach the end of your hair. Once you get the hang of it, the fishtail braid is very simple. Just keep pulling strands of hair from under the left and right sections, and crossing them over to the opposite section.

• How far down you braid is up to you. At some point, it will be difficult to cross those strands over; this is a good stopping point.

17. Secure your braid with a hair tie. If you pulled your braid into a ponytail in the beginning, remove the hair tie after you’ve secured your braid. You may have to cut the ponytail’s hair tie off with scissors.

18. Fluff the braid for a fuller effect, if desired. Starting from the bottom, gently pull on the outer loops of the braid to make it look fuller. Work your way towards the top of the braid, and don’t get too carried away. Remember, your braid will loosen up throughout the day.

• You can do this on other types of braids, but it is most popular for fishtail braids.

19. Wrap 2 regular braids around your head to get milkmaid braids. Part your hair down the middle first. Braid each side of your hair to get 2 braids. Wrap the braids around your head like a headband, then secure them in place with bobby pins.

• If your braids can’t cross past each other at the top of your head, your hair is too short. Try doing a braided halo with Dutch braids instead for a similar effect.
