About

K2 Braids works out of She's Rare Beauty Bar on Crenshaw Blvd in Gardena. The business is run by licensed cosmetologists who specialize in braiding, and the listing describes the lead braider as having served the local community for over 15 years, according to the business.

Services are grouped into braids for adults, a kids section for children 10 and under, stitch feeders, and a braiding technique class. Adult braid styles include stitch braids with large knotless, boho freestyle styles, a Fulani-style mohawk, and a shorter touch-up service for existing braids. The business also lists wig and weave installs and ponytails among its offerings.

Every appointment includes a shampoo and blowout. Appointment times on the site are estimates, and full pricing may apply if a visit runs past the scheduled time. Clients have a 15-minute grace period; after that, a faster style that fits the remaining time may be chosen. Add-ons are charged at regular price at checkout and are not discounted.

Booking opens online on the 1st of each month at 9am. Deposits are $25 for kids and $50 for adults and are applied to the appointment total. Deposits are refundable when an appointment is canceled at least 48 hours ahead, and appointments can be canceled or rescheduled up to 48 hours before for a refund or credit. Rescheduling to the same style is allowed within the same month. The business is closed on holidays and on the first and last date of each month. Appointments may occasionally be changed or canceled on short notice, with a refund offered if the change does not work for the client.

The business also runs a Jr. Cosmo After School Program and a braiding technique class for people who want to learn the craft. Phone calls are taken from 9am to 6pm at 818-527-2116.
