How to french fishtail braid your own hair

A french fishtail braid does take a lot of time to do if you take tiny sections, but you can do bigger sections if you want to cut down on the braiding and save some time. You will lose some detail in the braid, but it will be a lot faster to do! If your sections become too big, you will lose the fishtail look, and then it would be easier to just do a french braid instead!
