    It looks like a Herringbone braid to me.

    Looks like a herringbone to me too. But like she did it so that a big lock of hair was used for her left side and they pulled small pieces all the way from her right.

    CURRENTLY: waist straight (28") GOAL: waist braidwaves (35")

    Going by how the hair's laying on the right under the pieces worked into the braid, I'd guess it was a side cage braid, very intricately done (with more sections added in than usual). The main braid itself looks to be a three-strand braid to my eyes.

    It looks like a basic french herringbone braid, done very loosely on top and less loose on the bottom. But it's a herringbone braid for sure!

    Second thread today talking about Ruslana's beautiful hair!

    ETA: Here is a link for a tutorial, just do it really loose and start higher up and you should get a similar look.

    Yep the upper part is a cage braid, slowly morphing into a regular herringbone braid it seems ?

    A herringbone made in akind of a one-sided cage-braid techinqe? That is so frigging gorgeous! Thanks for posting... I just did a very loose herringbone braid today, which looked kind of cool but didn't hold very well A perfect midsummer style I'd say!
