Gather all of your hair into a low ponytail, and use it to make a fishtail braid. Make the rope braids sit low on the back of your head, right where it starts to curve into your nape. Tuck a fancy comb or tiny flowers into the joint just above the gathered rope braids. Use a clear hair elastic for securing the rope braids; you don't want that to be visible. Create a deep side part first. The, starting on the thicker side of the part, begin to French braid down the side of your head, across the back, and toward the other side of your nape. Finish with a regular braid, then secure it with a hair elastic. Keep the sections large and loose for a gentler look. For more volume, gently pull on the outer loops of the regular braid. Add a hair accessory that matches your jewelry into the end of the braid to make it look more fancy. Create a deep side part. Then, starting from the thicker side of the part, begin a French braid. Continue French braiding down the side of your head, then pull everything into a low ponytail and finish off with a fishtail braid. Keep the sections on the French braid large and loose. You want them to gently sweep across your hairline. Part your hair into 5 sections. Take the first section on the left, and weave it over and under the next 2 sections. Next, take the last section on the right, and weave it over and under the previous sections. Keep going until you reach the end of your hair, then secure it with a hair elastic. For a more elegant touch, part your hair off to the side. Drape the braid over your shoulder. Secure the middle of each section with a clear elastic, then move the elastics down as you braid. At the end, pull those elastics off. This will help you keep track. Hold strands 1 and 2 in your left hand, and strands 4 and 5 in your right. Leave strand 3 hanging in the middle. Create a deep side part, then do a simple braid or French braid at the base of your nape. Drape the braid over your shoulder, then pin a large hair accessory or birdcage veil to the side of your head.
