It shows how some of your hair on the right is going to the left when you put your fingers through to separate the hair. This is what prevents a big hole down the middle.

Seems like those of us that can do fishtail cannot do this and vice versa. Now I'm going to give it a try, I bet I won't be able to do it!

Because I didn't brush my hair first, it ended up knotting itself at the bottom so I didn't have to tie it off.

What you need to do is keep moving the hole down the "braid" as well. Look closely at the photos and you'll see what I mean. It's hard to explain but I hope that helps.
