My Summer Staple Hairstyle
Hair May 15, 2015
My easy version of the fishtail crown braid has been my summer staple that I have worn most days! Crown/halo braids are reallllly time consuming and difficult so this is a much easier option that will still give you the same "wrap around" look (although fishtails in general are always quite time consuming but it takes out the difficult factor!) Its so nice to have your hair up and out of your face on hot days especially when you have a little one. My tutorial for this look as well as the milkmaid version is below.
Have a fabulous weekend!!!!! Stay tuned on my instagram to see where we are headed in Europe! xo

I am definetely doing this hairstyle today! It looks very easy and do-able
Yay so glad!! π
I wish my hair looked like that
You are looking beautiful and your hair style is awesome
Hi Amber!
I tried re-creating this style with 18 inch extensions and they didn’t wrap all the way around. Can you tell me what brand and length you used to creat this great look? Thank you for being a great part of my day. I admire you
Love your tutorials!! They’re so easy to understand!! I wish you would do them with your extensions so I knew how to hide mine with all these fun braids!!
I love this style and braids in general. I’m excited to try this out for a wedding tonight. Thank you!
Hi Amber

this is probably my favorite hairstyle when it comes to fishtail braids, I used to try it before when my hair was longer but now its way too short for it, oh well I’ll definitely try it when it grows long again. Your tutorials are always so easy to follow and to understand, thank you so much for sharing! And of course you look gorgeous!! Much love.
Thank you so much Paula!! I love hearing that!! π I appreciate the positive feedback!! You are the best!! Love ya!! xo

This braid looks so great! My hair is relatively long, but not quite long enough for this style I think… soon enough!

Such a gorgeous hairstyle! And as always your tutorial is really well done.
I have tried and tried to do the fishtail side braid and it never works out. I seriously think fishtail braids are the hardest of them all for some reason.
