Fishtail Braid Headband Hairstyle, Dancing With The Stars

Quick and Easy Hairstyles: Fishtail Braid Headband Cheat

fish braid headbandWe have done a few hairstyles in the past using the Princess's actual hair to make a braided headband. These are some of our favorite styles and I love the look of braids crossing over her cute head! I do realize though, that fairly long hair is needed to create a style like that and it can be difficult for some to arrange the braids (and keep them in place throughout the day.) This is a fun cheat!

We purchased this cute fish tail aka fish bone / herringbone braided headband at "Sally Beauty Supply." I believe it is synthetic hair. The brand is Bellissima and is part of the "Dancing With The Stars" hair collection. I'm sure similar headbands can be found in most stores that carry hair accessories, or at Amazon here: Braided Headband

This headband can be incorporated into many hairstyles as an accent to add an adorable bohemian, hippie look. This "cheat" is so much easier and faster than braiding your own hair and can work even if you have short hair! My daughter has been wearing this non stop since we got it. I think it's one of our favorite accessories!


This has been great for us on school mornings... a 5 minute, easy hairstyle. ;) I actually have worn it myself a few times as well! It can work for every age (girls, tweens, teens, and adults) every hair type, and every hair length!

*This is not a sponsored post. We purchased the headband and thought it was so cute, we just wanted to share.

This is so cute! It certainly doesn't look like it only takes 5 minutes to do either.

How pretty! This is one of the things I miss about not having a daughter... not being able to do her hair. :)
