Day 5- "Topping off a fishtail"

Today was a day to wear a hat and sport the classic fish braid. I have to admit, I am not very good at doing this braid. I can do braids in my sleep, but the fish braid always seems to get the best of me. The hat was for added style and for sun protection. You can never be too careful when it comes to those pesky UV rays. I have a really large head, so I usually have a difficult time finding hats that fit. I found this lovely at Target in the guy's department!! I am not above wearing a guys hat.

Today's tip- Embrace the bobby pin! I have a HUGE box that seems to be used more than anything else. Lincoln is always finding them all around the house. Sorry honey! But seriously, USE BOBBY PINS!!! I will be using them in almost all of my styles, so go out and get some today.

Have a happy hair day!

Love the fishtail! I've seen it being sported on many red carpets lately and have been wanting to try it myself.

How did you do the front of your hair under the hat? Did you have a middle or a side part? Just curious.

I was just staring at the fishtail and thinking how well you did it!! You totally rock the fishtail. I have done a few on Lane, and on myself but the side one is awesome.

You two are great!! My hair is parted on the side. I just swept it over to do the braid. How about I list all of these questions in a later post and answer them all at the same time.
