Craft Night: Dutch Fishtail Braid

For February craft night a few of us girls got together and basically had a grown-up slumber party minus the slumber part. A few glasses of wine, some chicken wings, a lot of girl talk and of course HAIR BRAIDING! Dutch fishtails all around!

If you want to try this either by yourself or with a group of friends I definitely recommend buying extensions. These are the extensions I bought. They're cheap and synthetic BUT they come in a bunch of colors and for the purposes of braiding they're just fine to use in order to really BULK UP a lazy braid;-)

Here's a great tutorial on how and where to place your extensions when doing a plain dutch braid.

Here's the tutorial I used to learn how to make the dutch fishtail braid. It's not the easiest braid to learn but it's kind of like riding a bicycle. Once you learn it's pretty easy.
