We exhibit explicit and easily realisable bijections between Hecke--Kiselman monoids of type $A_n$/$\widetilde{A}_n$; certain braid diagrams on the plane/cylinder; and couples of integer sequences of particular types. This yields a fast solution of the word problem and an efficient normal form for these HK monoids. Yang--Baxter type actions play an important role in our constructions.
