Do you know what French, fishtails, and ropes have in common? They are all a type of braiding style! Hair braiding comes back in style once every ten years or so, and this year it has been a huge hit. And just in time for the summer! Read on for an overview of French braids, fishtail braids, and rope braids!
French braids are fancier and wider than regular three-strand braids because they start out with three but incorporate more strands from the sides. One popular variety of this style is the headband-like French braid. It helps to keep hair out of the face but also looks polished. Plus, it can be dotted with Grecian or Bohemian overtones, especially with the long, flowery dresses that are trendy this summer. You can often spot Jennifer Aniston, Lauren Conrad, Nicole Richie, and Rachel Bilson sporting this look on and off the red carpet.
Fishtail braids are wider and flatter than French braids. They really do look like fish tails! And they only require two big strands, which are gradually separated into multiple strands. Luckily you can do this style by yourself because as you are creating the look you always have only two strands in each hand at any given moment. This style of braiding is popular as a side braid; however, medium to long hair is highly recommended. Lots of celebrities have sported this look recently, including Rihanna, Fergie, and Kim Kardashian. Whether this braid involves one ponytail or two, the look is very sexy.
Rope braids are a little more difficult to do on your own, since they require you to twist in an unusual fashion, but it is worth it because it's a very elegant look. Celebrities like wearing this style up, to the side, or as a ponytail. Selena Gomez and Lauren Conrad sported this look in recent months.
