I’ve been seeing this stacked fishtail and mini braid combo everywhere! Since it’s always in the back of my mind I thought it’d be fun to share how I would style it. Headband braids are such a great way to add a little something extra to your favorite curls or waves. For this look I decided to flat iron mine and really love how easily it dressed up my straight locks. This type of braid would also transition easily into a handful of other hairstyles. If there’s another version that you’d love to see in a tutorial then be sure to let me know in the comments section below! Stacked Fishtail and Mini Braid Supplies: Paddle Brush Straightener 2-4 Bobby pins Hair sectioning clip 1 Clear elastic band Medium-hold hairspray Stacked Fishtail and Mini Braid Instructions: Preparation: For this hairstyle I started by brushing through clean hair before running a straightener over the hair to smooth down any natural waves. Step 1 / Start by parting the hair on the right side. Then divide off a small section on the heavy side of the part, about 1″ back from the hairline, and braid this section into a three strand braid. Step 2 / Criss-cross two bobby pins over the end of the braid and clip it out of the way. Step 3 / Pick up a 2″ section of hair directly under the previous and create a dutch fishtail braid. Continue bringing in hair until it reaches the temple. Then continue the braid down to the ends. Step 4 / Go back through the braid and pull on the edges to make it wider and more full. Step 5 / Wrap the braid around the back of the head. Divide off a small section of hair underneath the top hair of the crown. Tie the braid to this small section with an elastic band. Step 6 / Let down the original three strand braid and lay it right over the center of the fishtail braid. Step 7 / Pin the mini braid where the fishtail braid ends. Lay the hair from the crown over the ends to hide it. Step 8 / Spray the style with hairspray to set it. Smooth down the sides of the braid to lay down any flyaways.
