Braid Trends

Why this new trend? Well we don’t know why it is considered a trend, because we saw it on catwalks every season. Maybe, designers and hairstylists offered it more attention for the next fashion season, due to its elegance and sophistication.

  • It’s great with any hair color
  • The side braid can be paired with the slicked side hair style for an edgy interpretation
  • The fish plait can be worn with a center part
  • Both the side braid and the fish plait work great with a fringe
  • The side braid can only be worn with a side part and the part must be on the opposite side of the head to the braid. If you’re stuck for a mental picture when styling this in front of the mirror one evening, simply think of it as the Rapunzel braid.

The fishtail (or Herringbone braid) became a popular trend among celebrities and fashionistas this year, and we adore this sea-inspired style. To give your otherwise intricate braid a beachy-chic edge, loosen the braid and take out some strands after you finish.

The fishtail braid is preferred due to the fact that it looks modern and edgy. Creating a fishtail might seem more complicated, however the process is simpler that it might look at a first glance.

How to create a fishtail braid: you will first need split your hair into two separate sections combing each section to make sure that there aren’t any tangles left:

  • Pull hair back and separate into two sections
  • Pull a narrow strand of hair from the left section and cross it over to join the right section of hair
  • Pull a narrow strand of hair from the right section and cross it over to join the left section of hair
  • Repeat steps 2 and 3, pulling a new narrow strand each time
  • Secure the end of the braid with a hair band.
