Hey GlamFam! So I often see people attempt to do a french braid at the top and a fishtail at the bottom, in this video I show you have to get a consistent fishtail braid to the scalp, from top to bottom! I give you techniques to help you braid like a pro, and prevent you from causing traction alopecia, and show you how to make your braids look neat and even. This type of braid is also frequently referred to as a french fishtail braid.

I'm a new subscriber. Love the detailed videos. I wanted to know if you can do a quick video of how to feed in fish tail braid to the scalp. I want to try it but I can't find a tutorial of it anywhere. I would greatly appreciate it. I took the liberty of trying on my mannequin and my feeding fishtail braid came out gorgeous. It came out like the mermaid /butterfly fishtail to the scalp.

[@elladora1417]

Can you do a tutorial on Infinity braid on Black people hair? Never saw one done on video.

[@jenniferrose9816]

Tutorial Request sir..... i need to perfect a 2 strand twist around the head...i keep getting a loose butt 😆

[@jennhoff03]

I have done a million fishtail braids but they're always so loose. I had no idea you were supposed to take a small section of hair from the already-braided part on your way over! That's gonna be a game-changer. Thank you!

[@LynnCochran71]

My 12 & 11 yr old daughters will be doing this on me today... I sense a lot of frustration in my life today 😂😂

I just started cosmetology school 3 weeks ago and I’m practicing French braid on my mani and I saw this video pop up and I followed along with the video and learned how to do it my first try! I already knew how to do a fish take but not to the scalp! This video helped me a lot. I’m feeling so accomplished rite now lol thanks!

[@jeprusan]

I was like a lot of other people in thinking that fishtail braiding is more complicated. I was so wrong. Thank you for another great, easy-to-follow tutorial. You're the BEST!

[@brittanycosenza3477]

Beautiful... and your tutorial is the best by far! As a stay at home dad I get the job of doing my daughter's hair. And I like making her look fierce.

[@qtbu]

I loved this video!!! I'm not gonna lie, when you were explaining how to start off the braid and the potential need of talking yourself through it as you go, all I could hear was LaGuardia's voice saying, "Left, middle, right, middle". LOL!!!!!!

[@GetGlamFam]

Lol LaGuardia is one of the best voices to have in your head! 😂❤️ Thanks so much for watching dear!

This looks great! I can do french braids and a regular braid on someone else much easier than myself nowadays lol but years ago I could do it on myself with ease! Lol I so out of practice 😂. I feel like my greatest challenge when doing this on my own hair is the hair starts to tangle and its hard to hold the braid taut and detangle the loose hair.
