Here is one of the fastest ways to get the look of a fishtail braid without actually doing one, and the result is absolutely beautiful.

1. Pull your hair back into a low pony. Use a tiny rubber elastic that blends in with the color of your hair.  Split the hair in half just above the elastic.

2. Loop the hair up and push the pony through the opening.

3. Use another rubber elastic to section off more hair just below the first.

4. Make the same split as you did in step two.

5. Repeat step two and loop the hair up again and push it through the opening.

6. Create one more section in the pony using a third rubber elastic.
