Fishtail Braids

Fishtail Braid
Blake Lively has shown off a number of fun, summery hair styles recently, while promoting her new movie "Savages". We happen to particularly love this throwback though. With mermaid-like waves and a small fishtail braid, this style is actually pretty easy to recreate and can work with lots of hair types. We recommend blow drying your hair first, and then curling the front pieces to make loose waves. Scrunch your curls and use a texture spray (we like Bumble & Bumble's Surf Spray) for some volume and that extra un-done messiness. Lastly, make your fishtail braid. If you find this tricky, here's a really great video on how to do fishtail braids from Lauren Conrad. [Photo via]
