Conch Shell Hairstyle

Hello friends,

Thank you for all your views and comments!  Today I made a loose hairband fishtail braid, then wrapped it around a side bun made out of another fishtail braid.  The look reminds me of a seashell, so I'll borrow the name of a popular braided hairstyle that I see a lot on the internet.  My version of a conch shell braid:

Wavy Herringbone Braid Updo

Hello everybody,

My hairstyle for today~ a French-braided herringbone braid, wrapped around a wavy rope-braid bun and held in place with bobby pins.  I love herringbone (fishtail) braids!

My look for today~ Boho Fishtail Braid Hairstyle

Hi friends,

Yesterday I tried the popular zig-zag fishtail French braid that circles the internet regularly, but did not really like how it turned out because it was too loose.  I didn't bother to take pictures, and wouldn't you know, the ladies who saw my hairstyle later that day loved it!  So I tried again today, and even though I could not achieve the original zig-zag look, I kind of like the way this hairstyle turned out.  I guess you could call it my Boho fishtail braid hairstyle :-)

(Thanks to an extra helping pair of hands to keep out tangles while I was braiding, my hair stayed tangle-free the entire time, which almost never happens when making a fishtail braid!)

French-braided Fishtail

The braid behind my Braid Waves post

A friend on the Long Hair Community asked me how I had braided my hair to make the braid waves in these pictures.

The day before, I had braided my hair in this French-braided fishtail style with a side bun. I learned how to do this look from Lilith Moon's video.

 

 

I really like a fishtail bun...it has such an interesting look to it. To get my braid waves, I just slept in the French fishtail braid that night and when I let my hair down the next morning...ta-da!! Braid waves :-)

 

Thanks for looking~ come back again soon!
