The fishtail bun

This is literally just a fishtail braid wrapped into a bun. If that's not enough for you, I'll post a picture tutorial that goes in-depth on how to do it. :)

Step 1: As with most buns, put your hair into a pony. This style I usually put on the side but in the picture, it's on the top. This is one you can put anywhere on your head.

Step 2: Fishtail braid it and tie it with an elastic at the bottom. If you don't know how to do that, I will make sure to post a tutorial on how to fishtail braid later. Tug on the braid for a fuller bun.

Step 3: Wrap it into a bun. When you have it the shape that you want, go ahead and pin down.
This is how mine turned out:
It doesn't turn out exactly the same every time. It depends on the length and thickness of the hair; for instance, when I do it on my hair, it wraps around a few more times than hers and it's a bit fuller. She has shorter and thinner hair than me, therefore, the bun is smaller.

 A good way to accessorize would be with a headband or a flower or something like that.

Happy styling!!
