5. The Classic Fishtail

Of course, there’s the ever-charming fishtail braid which Alia sports with grace. Fishtail braids are achieved by separating the hair into two sections (instead of 3 like with a classic plait) and taking the outer edge of one section and crossing it over to the other side. You can repeat this on both sides continuously to get Alia’s hairstyle look. It is also a great idea to “pancake” the braid, which means loosening it a bit by gently tugging at it with your hands after you’re done tying it up. This will give it a more natural look.
