Maybe give some free advice about: Fashion and Styles?
1. Divide a small section of hair where you want the braid to start (usually at the hairline at the front of the head or just behind your bangs if you have them) into two even sections.
2. Comb each section smooth.
3. Cross the right hand section over the left section.
4. Pull the sections away from each other to tighten the plait.
5. Using the pointed end of a rat tail comb, lift a small section of hair on the right by drawing a line against the scalp from the hairline to the middle of the braid about a half inch to an inch beneath the first plait, depending on the thickness of your hair and how woven you want it to look (more strands create a more woven appearance).
6. Add the new section of hair to the existing section on the right and then cross it over the left section; tighten the plait.
7. Again using the handle of a rat tail comb, lift a small section of hair on the left by drawing a line against the scalp from the hairline to the middle of the braid even with the section you just lifted from the right, add this hair to the existing section on the left and then cross it over the right section.
8. Continue the process alternating right and left sections, tightening each plait as you make it, until you reach the hairline at the nape of the neck.
9. Secure the remaining hair with a hair-safe ponytail holder. You can then let the remaining hair hang free or weave a standard English braid to the ends.
Tips: For a different look, cross the sections of hair under each other instead of over. Keeping your hands close to the head will create a tighter braid, holding your hands away from the head will create a looser, more drapey braid.

I love fishtail braids!! haha. they're really good to wear if you go into the ocean, because it doesn't let any of the salt absorb into your hair. (Sorry extra information.)
Step One: Start by pulling all hair back into a ponytail and tie it.It should be noted that this braid works best on dry hair that is medium to very long in length and is not layered.
Step Two: Divide the ponytail into two equal sections of hair. Take a small (approximately 1 inch section) from underneath the left section of hair and cross it over the right section of hair.
Step Three: then take a small section (same approximate size as the previous section) from underneath the right side.
Step Four: Cross the section from underneath the right over to the left side of your hair. continue steps 2-4 until you reach the end of the ponytail. Secure the remaining "tail hair" with a "hair friendly" elastic band.
Oh jeez I hope that's easy to understand..it really isn't as hard as it looks..i learned it in like 5 minutes. I couldn't really find any pictures that show you how to do it, just pictures that are already done.. I hope you figure it out!!
