The Ever Popular Fishtail Braid, With A Twist
Cute Fishtail Braid Hairstyle Tutorial
I think it is safe to say, the fishtail braid (or fishbone/herringbone braid) has probably been our favorite braid of 2013.  Our Princess has been wearing it (or a variation of it) to school at least once per week!

Today's hairstyle tutorial shows a fun and cute way to add some extra style to this classic braid.

This cute hairstyle has been great for the princess to wear to school.  Sometimes when she wears a standard braid at the base of her neck, the hair around her face tends to fall out throughout the day as she is playing at recess and such.  As an added bonus, this style seems to help with that problem (as the hair on the sides of her head is tied back and less likely to escape.) 
"Suspended Fishtail Braid" Tutorial

The Princess and I had a hard time coming up with a name for this style. So we asked the Princess's dad what he thought, and HE actually came up with "The suspended fishtail!" We decided this hairstyle also looks sort of like a hair bow, bow tie, or an upside down V, but in the end... the suspended fishtail won out. ;)
