About

Braiding By Sara is a hair braiding salon at 9000 Rainier Ave S in Seattle, in the Rainier Beach neighborhood. The salon describes itself as a trusted braiding salon in Seattle and says its goal is to become the city's leading one. Its services serve women, men and children.

The salon's stated mission is to offer braiding and natural hair care that protects hair health and supports client confidence. It says it avoids braiding hair too tightly and uses techniques meant to limit scalp tension. For younger clients it says it uses gentler methods. Each client receives individualized hair care recommendations.

Services range from quick take-out cornrows and washes to longer installations such as small box braids and small knotless braids. Crochet braids use a crochet needle to loop extensions through natural cornrows. Lemonade braids use side-swept cornrows in an asymmetric pattern, and Fulani braids combine a center cornrow with side braids decorated with beads and cuffs. Twists are offered in two-strand, passion and Senegalese versions, with passion twists using curly-textured extensions and Senegalese twists using synthetic hair.

The salon describes its space as comfortable, friendly and relaxing. Appointments can be booked through the website or by phone. Appointment times are estimates that depend on the style, the length of the hair and how complex the work is. The salon says protective styles can last about four to eight weeks with proper care.

The salon aims to protect hair health with gentle installation, avoids excessive scalp tension and tailors hair care recommendations to each client.

Comfortable, friendly and relaxing, according to the salon.
