[@gayatriduvva]

I'm a person that uses multiple learning styles, and the fact that you recognized this really helped. It probably would've taken me weeks to get this hairstyle down, but I got it almost immediately. Thank you!

Thank you for this! I’m 40 something and finally learned how to do a fishtail braid! Super helpful!

[@kateharris8358]

Kayley I just wanted to let you know how much i appreciate the confidence builder part of this! I have a disability in my left side which means I can't really move my left fingers independently of each other so i can't do most braids but with your way i can!! thank you so much

[@elizabethottenheimer4046]

I agree--extremely helpful! I only needed to watch half the video to figure it out and got it right on first try. I credit Kayley and not my natural ability as I am 32 and don't even know how to French braid my hair/ just barely getting into braiding. Thaaank you!

[@Sourpatchhero-rl8sh]

Oh Thank God!!! finally I dont have to cry anymore when I watch your videos because your hairstyles are so beautiful and I can't do them. I've watched so many videos on how to braid and they always just made my brain hurt yours actually makes sense. thank you, thank you, thank you.

[@madliraidvere]

Yesss! Thank you! I have Cerebral palsy, and therefore the motor skills of my right hand are quite crappy. But I could do it! The only braid I now am able to do! I started where I could see the base, my right hand held one half of the braid and I basically did the work with my left thumb. It turned out quite ok :) Since my hair is sooo long (to the base of my butt :P ) it took me a while :D Are there any other braid options I could manage?

[@madliraidvere]

[@kaym7800]

I just learned how to fishtail braid!! Thank you. So easy when you know what you're doing.

[@raebetweenstars]

Thanks so much! I have watched almost twenty other videos on how to do this and was lost with no idea what they were doing. after watching 5 seconds of this I already understood what to do. I normally go to school with a TERRIBLE messy bun and was looking for something that doesn't scream homeless. You just earned yourself a new subscriber! ilysm!

[@kylee7708]

This is the best braid tutorial on KZbin. You explain the WHOLE thing and don’t just speed up the rest of the braid. Thanks so much

[@dariagradzka580]

Thanks, this was SOOO helpful. As I am only 12, I could never do much with my hair but this helped A TON.

[@carolynnq7308]

I just want to share that after 20 years of trying to learn to do a fishtail braid (I'm 27 years) I have officially got it down because of this video! Thank you so so much!

[@TheFlutterrbye]

Wow! Thankyou. I'm 60yrs with waist length hair for most of my life. I can braid, French braid etc. But fish tail always looked so complicated, so I finally with the help of KZbin and you, I find its not scary or that complicated at all. I will be sporting fish tail braids from now on. I know this is an old vlog, I hope you see this message. Thankyou!

[@kayleen6746]

Waterfall braid tutorial should be the next segment! 😊

[@ccap3211]

Kayleen Cadalin I didn't know those were still cool.

[@BilalKhan-rk4dm]

yes u are right...........

[@kichonacho800]

I remember giving up because I thought this was too difficult, but trying it now, or at least using your tutorial, it seems so easy. Too bad I had my hair cut so it's a little short, but still works like a charm!

[@bibliophilecb]

Omg I remember the original braid encyclopedia video way back when! It was such a great video to help me first learn about braided hairstyles! So glad you're doing an updated version now :)

[@bibliophilecb]

Also I love the motor skills explanation! I've always been iffy with the fishtail because I get the concept but it always ends up looking funky

[@drummerloverEli]

I was thinking of the same thing! It's what initially brought me to her channel I believe!

[@Pervane07]

I know a really old video but i keep coming back to it over and over again. There is no better tutorial on youtube. Thank you Kayley

[@chiarasnell4071]

I rarely leave comments but wanted to let you know that you have taught me how to do a fishtail braid in less than 5 minutes! After the first demo, I had it and I’m grateful for you and this video. Thanks a bunch!🤗🌸

[@GabrielaEdwardsLujan]

*Thank you so much for this!* I've never been really good at braiding my hair because it's so long and thick, and I get discouraged very easily when I don't understand where my fingers go. Your tutorial was very simple and easy to understand, and the three ways of doing it made it incredibly easy to follow along! For the first time, it clicked for me how go do this. Thank you so much!!!!!!

[@xavierp8587]

I'm only here because my girlfriend wants me to braid her hair and never done it before

[@eliseneil3930]

Maybe do a different style of braid. This may not really be the braid she means. Google braids. Maybe do one of those. Good luck 😅 Just realised this was posted months ago....anyway

[@saram.2938]

I understood the first demonstration so much easier than how anybody else has tried to show me. This is so much easier than I thought!

[@XuJialin]

Rope braid will be great. Like those that you start from the top of the head with small sections and gradually increase the amount. Whenever I try, I'll always mess it up. Initially, for 1min, it will stay tight before it loosens up and falls all over the place. Btw, Kayley you are amazing!!! I haven't tried any of your hairstyles lately because my hair is at medium length but I'm like one of those who watches the videos because of the "omg so fabulous" hair and your videos are generally really nice to watch. :D

[@Jess-ee1rb]

For someone who could only do the standard braid, your tutorial was super easy to follow! I can now do fish tail braids too 🙌🏻

[@diandrarn9297]

Ashamed to admit how many videos I watched trying to get this braid right. This was the only one that finally made it stick. 👏 Thank you!

[@zia3729]

I never thought I would successfully do a fishtail braid in life. I watched half of this video and did a perfect one in ten minutes. Thank you 🙌🏾

[@Mafer0692]

Kayley, this is such a great tutorial! I've never seen one like this before on youtube... I mean, it's awesome that you explain exactly how to move your fingers in you hair and the analogies are quite funny! Keep doing tutorials like these, I love it! Also, I would like to suggest the dutch braid for the next video, I find it so hard to do it, my hands DO NOT follow what is in my head!

[@raineycan9576]

Omg thank you for this!!!!! I actually just fishtail braided my hair as soon as I finished watching and it actually came out really good!!!

[@GenderlessSpoonie]

You are so damn adorable and great at explaining this insanely simple hairstyle that I somehow didn’t learn how to do until this point in my life even after completing cosmetology school, years of theatre And performance, and several years running a professional wig and costume design company. Thank you for this!

[@Whateveruwantig]

This was SO easy!! I had absolutely no idea how to do a fishtail braid, and when I looked it up on Google this was the first to pop up. I watched 2 minutes of it and now I know exactly what to do. And you do it so well!! Thank you!

Brilliant! I need tutorials like this where it explains the technique in different ways. Perhaps next you could do french braiding? I can do it, but my method is slow and not commonplace, so having a video explain your own method would be awesome.

It wasn’t on this video, but when I saw you do a fishtail braid on a different video and I saw how you moved your fingers, I decided to give it a go. I tried doing it years ago but I COULD NOT get it at all. But after just looking at how your fingers moved, I managed to get a stunning fishtail braid first try! This video is so great and I love that you even gave a method that even people who are hopeless with hair could do. Keep up the good work!
