Nicole's elegant fishtailed/ braided hair

                   PROM HAIR #2!
My precious friend, Nicole


Such a simple do, but quite a bit elegant.
How to: Start with the bangs or a front section and fish tail it toward the back.
Secure with a hair tie.
Take another section from the other side and braid or fish tail it. 
Continue braiding or fishtailing different sized sections of hair from both sides.

Tip #1: I purposefully kept from doing one section on the right and then one on the left. If you alternate in a set pattern the style will come across as especially uniform.
Tip #2: Just like taking from right sporadically, I did more braids than I did fishtails. This makes the fish tailed sections look more distinguished and yet again, less uniform.

Once you have the desired number of braids or fishtails, cross them over and overlap them to your hearts content until you have a simple maze. 
Take out the hair ties and try to bobby pin the sections where hair will overlap and make a mystery of what is holding the locks in place. 
                            Finish by spraying, add any pins or clips, and enjoy your special night!




Two down, one more prom hair do to post!
