Hairstyles for Girls.. The Wright Hair: Fish Tail Wrap

I just wanted to let everyone know the story of The Wright Hair. I am fairly new to blogging about hair but I have been doing my little girls hairstyles since the day my oldest daughter was born. The first thing out of the doctors mouth was I hope you ordered a girl full of hair. When my 2nd daughter arrived we were not so lucky with the hair genes. She has thin short hair. It was with the frustrations I had trying to do my 2nd ones hair that I decided to start this blog. I figured if I struggled this much there must be others struggling too. I am a working mom and getting my girls ready every morning is the best time of the day for me. This is a time we get to bond without other distractions. Right now my girls and I are enjoying our time together. I am sure it will only be a short time before my oldest wants to do her own hair. But for now we invite you to join us on the Wrights Journey through hair. Because of being a working mom, sometimes we will do fancy dos and sometimes quick dos, other times the do's are dont's but we welcome everyone to come along for the ride.

Fish Tail Wrap

As my daughter is getting older she wants more grown up styles here is one that turned out really cute.

I started with making her far lateral part. Then I made a fish tail braid on the side of her head with the least amount of hair. As you can see below it is french fish tailed (if that is what you call it) then I finished fish tail braiding all the way to the end of her hair. ***you need to braid the hair long enough that it reaches the other side of her head.

Once the braid is finished secure it with an elastic.

Drape the braid across the back of her head and end it above her opposite ear. Pull the top hair up and secure with bobbie pins the end of the fish tail braid. As shown below. Pull the top hair down over to hide the elastic and bobbie pins. ***if you cross the bobbie pins they stay in much better***
