Fishtail Fad

     Bored with braids? Fed up with French twists?


     Then try a fishtail braid! They’re the traditional braid’s under-rated counterpart.

    These braids are an easy solution to covering up second-day-dirty hair. No matter your hair color, fishtail braids can flaunt your natural (or unnatural) highlights.


    “Fishtail braids are way cooler than your average braid,’ Emily Writer, junior, said.


     Not only are these braids fashionable but they are functional as well. The dense weaving pattern provides a lasting support throughout the day.


    Fishtail braids can be seen anywhere from high-fashion runways to athletic events. The versatility of these unique braids is part of the reason these braids are becoming so popular. They can look stunning on the red carpet, cool at school, and hip at the gym.
