Messy Fishtail Milkmaid Braids – A Beautiful Mess

Wow, it’s been nearly a year since I cut my hair into a bob and my hair is just now starting to feel *long* again. I mean, I still have a ways to go before it’s back to the length it was, but it always amazes me how fast the time flies. When I was growing out a pixie cut, I felt like it was going to be a really long and awkward process and in a way I guess it was. It took probably six months, but then when six months have passed, it feels like no time at all. Like, how was it a year ago since my last big chop??? Where did the year go? Anyway, this is a style I started wearing a few months ago and will work with slightly shorter and much longer hair. What I love about it though is how full the fishtails can look—just look at the third row of pictures below!
