Step two
Separate both sides of the hair to create two low ponytails to sit on either side of your shoulders. Next, split these ponytails into two more sections.

Step three
Take a small section of hair from behind the left side. Pass it around the outside, over the front, and integrate into the right side.
Then, take a small section of hair from behind the right side. Pass it around the outside, over the front, and integrate into the left. This will form a fishtail braid.
Repeat these steps through both sides, securing the ends with an elastic band.

Step five
Accessorise the look by adding neon bands to create a modern edge.

Step six
To finish the look, take small sections from the hairline and place the ghd gold® styler at the root, rotating half a turn to create a soft wave. Repeat this in different directions to create a soft beachy texture.
