Easy Braids

Double Fishbone
1/ Make a center part. Then, starting to the right of the part, separate out a one-inch section of hair.

2/ Begin fishbone braiding (see below for a fishbone braiding how-to), but add eighth-inch chunks of hair from your hairline only (don’t add hair from the top of your head).

3/ Repeat on the left side. Use an elastic to join the fishbones at the back of your head.

Fishbone Braiding
1/ Pull all of your hair into a low ponytail, but don't secure it. Instead, divide your hair into two equal sections at your neck.

2/ Start the braid by grabbing an eighth-inch piece of hair from the outside of the left section and crossing it over to the inside of the right section.

3/ Repeat this step on the other side, taking an eighth-inch piece from the outside of the right section and crossing it over to add to the inside of the left section.

4/ Continue this process, crossing over and adding small pieces of hair, until you're about two inches from the ends. Then secure your braid with a small elastic.
