How to Do an Easy Fishtailed Updo


I know fishtail braids can be time consuming, so replace them with normal braids if you’re in a pinch for time :)!


PS, sorry for the mid video outfit change! My camera stopped recording while I was filming the bun and I didn’t realize it until the next day, so I had to re record that part.

  34. Did the camera misfire? You change outfits in some of the scenes.
