Begin weaving:
Now split your ponytail evenly into two sections. Unlike the traditional plate, a fishtail braid only requires two sections.
Finish Your Look:
Continue crossing-over the strands from both sides of your ponytail, all the way till the end. Make sure to grab the same size (about a half inch) sections from each side.
Once you’re done with braiding them till the end, secure the style with another elastic. Now, carefully cut out the elastic at the base of your ponytail. Finish your look by gently tugging them with your fingers to loosen it to give an effortless look.
Hope you enjoyed this tutorial on hair-styling.
