Parting for the Fishbone Hair Braid

Hi, my name is Lauren and in behalf of Expert Village I'm here to show you how to achieve various styles thru using regular braids. The fishbone braid is a little bit more intricate and a little bit more detailed. It's also harder for you to actually do on yourself. Unlike the French braid where you are grabbing section by section, and ultimately then getting all of your hair involved into it. The fishbone braid, you are going to drag all of your hair back. Now I suggest with the fishbone braid that you start it when you start learning the fishbone braid, that you learn it by the base of the neck or the nape of the neck. Because you are going to be holding the entire hair throughout the French braid and taking those sections and pushing them over to intertwine you are going to split the hair in two and throughout the entire braid these two ponytails are not going to leave your hands. It's a lot more hair to work with and a little bit harder to manipulate your fingers when you have so much more holding. That's why it's a little bit harder and a little bit more intricate than the French braid is.
