Dutch Braid Fishtail Ponytail

Start by making a dutch braid on one side of the head, using the same technique as a french braid but wrapping hair underneath the braid instead of overtop. Once you've reached the back of the head, braid a few more stitches, then secure with an elastic band. Next, tie all hair (including the dutch braid) into a ponytail at the back of the head. Now you can remove the elastic that was securing the dutch braid, and make a fishtail braid from a section of the ponytail on the same side of the head as the dutch braid. For an added final touch, wrap the ponytail elastic in a piece of loose hair to conceal it.
