Fish Scale French Braid

What you'll need
small clear or hair colored elastics
Moose/hairspray
Brush/comb

Brush through hair and texture with desired products to eliminate fly aways and insure hair looks as desired. Create a V section at the top of your head, set aside for later. At the outer part of your eyebrow arch slide your finger up through your hair at an angle to the center part on each side and french braid to the crown. French braid the center section to the crown of your head, taking a small section from the left braided section ends incorporate into the center french braid. Taking a small section from the right braided section ends incorporate into the center french braid. Repeat this until you run out of the outer braided ends. Taking a small section just under the outer braids along the hairline incorporate it into the french braid. Continue this taking only small sections from along your hairline and bringing them over the remaining hair and incorporating it into the french braid. Once you've collected the last sections at the nape of your neck finish braid to the ends. Hair spray finished hair and your finished.

Begin at the base of your neck and reverse french braid or dutch braid hair working your way up your head. When you reach your crown begin incorporating the rest of your hair so that when you reach the top of your crown all hair is included. Pull at sections of the braid to create a loose rings braid.
