Hairstyles at K&D African Hair Braiding in Bay Shore

African-style braiding became popular in the late 1970s, enjoyed a resurgance in the '90s and is coming back once again. On June 30, Nawa "Kandee" Kamate, of K&D African Hair Braiding in Bay Shore, talked about how hair braiding is more than a fashion choice — it's rooted in community, family and helping people wear styles more representative of their culture.
