1.      The ever so romantic fishtail braid

The fishtail braid is probably one of the most beautiful and common types of braids out there. It’s especially flattering and looks the best on straight hair, but you can also try it if you have wavy or slightly curly hair. The technique is quite simple but takes some getting used to. Firstly, you will need to separate your hair into two big sections. The idea is to take one thin strand from underneath each section and pass it over to the other one. If you are a beginner, you might want to tie your hair into a ponytail first and then begin braiding. Lots of celebrities love it and they often let it a bit looser for an even more romantic look.

2.      The comfortable and easy hair knot

Oh, the eternal hair knot! Let’s face it, all women out there are familiar with this type of twist. It’s very easy to do and it can be both convenient and fancy. It takes the hair out of your face, hence why so many girls wear it at the gym, or it can make for an interesting going out look. You simply need to twist your hair loosely, bring it up, twist it once again to create that sort-of ballerina bun and then secure it with an elastic or bobby pins. Get some strands out to make the look even more laid back. You can also add some hairspray to help keep it in place. An alternative would be to create the knot at the back of your head.

The milkmaid braid was historically worn by well, milkmaids, to keep their long hair out of the milk. Now, it’s a trendy and beautiful type of twist which many women wear. The simplest way is to make two simple pigtail braids which you need to pull up and pin over the crow of your head. It will basically look like a crown made out of your own hair.
