Fishbone Braid

Here's Chloe showing off her fishbone braid!

I am NOT a good french braider.  Good thing the fishbone braid isn't a french braid!  This is SUCH an easy plait to do ... and looks so fabulously cool.  This is also called the herringbone or fishtail braid, btw. 

I only have two hands.  {Gasp, I know.} So I have no pictures to prove that I actually know how to do this. Taking a picture while you braid is hard.  I don't do hard!  

Anywho, here's whatcha do:

1. Divide hair into two sections.

2. Pull a skinny section of hair from the outside of the right section, over the remaining right section, and add it to the left hand section.  

3.  Then do the same to the other side!  Take a skinny section of hair from the outside of the left, take it over the section you are taking from and add it to the right hand section.  

4.  Keep going!  Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you get to the end of the hair, and then secure with an elastic band.  

If you don't understand {and I really don't blame you!} Here is a link with illustrations to make things clearer.

Enjoy your new do!!!
