French Braided Fish Tail

[simplysnuggle]

I feel very accomplished because for the first time last night I came up with the idea of doing a french braided fish tail braid and it actually worked! I have so much hair though so it took a long time and I had to take breaks at times because my arms got tired. I looked up on YT and saw that there are others that already came up with this concept which kind of made me sad but it was still an accomplishment none the less!:shrug:

Congrats! Those are cool braids that can be well worth the effort. I hear ya on the arms getting tired, especially if there's a fair amount of length to deal with.

Well done Simplysnuggle, what an accomplishment! Keep it up, you never know you might get new more styles.

I started with one and have about 500 I need to test out, some others have probably be done but I bet theres at least one that hasnt.

That is why I don't do that braid more often... it takes forever on hair as long as mine!!!

Awesome, I'm still working on mine! However, I get confused easily where I'm used to working with 3 sections. :confused:

OK so I just attempted it again and it was sooo sloppy! I even tried doing double braids and my arms are just not wanting to cooperate.. I will try again in a little bit when they stop crying :)

[simplysnuggle]

At least the more I do it the stronger my arms get. :lol:

[yellowchariot]

It doesn't look bad at all. That's way better than what I can do!

[simplysnuggle]

I wish I had the patience and strength to do a more detailed fish tail. :shrug:

Beautiful! This is one of my favorite braids to do - the effect is just so cool. It is tricky to get the french-fishtail to stay put - but not impossible! Well done, you have lovely hair :)
