Kinuthia reveals why he decided to do laser hair removal to get rid of his beard

Kenyan crossdresser and content creator Kelvin Kinuthia has revealed the reasons why he is undergoing laser hair removal to do away with his beard.

In a video shared on Instagram on Monday, June 17, 2024, Kinuthia revealed his habit of regularly shaving his beard, which is why it often goes unnoticed.

The content creator mentioned that he occasionally shaves at home to avoid uncomfortable situations at the barbershop, though he admitted that this DIY approach doesn’t always result in a perfect shave.

Kinuthia also shared that his dissatisfaction with his beard sometimes dampens his motivation to create content, as he feels self-conscious about his appearance hence the need for a parmanent solution.

“I’m started my laser hair removal journey, yaani in short, nataka kumalizana na ndevu zangu. Nakuanga nikizinyoa, that is why you don’t see them and sometimes I post photos with makeup. Ukijinyoa nyumbani is not as clean as kwa barbershop. Sometimes huwa naloose psyche ya kufanya content because I feel I am looking bad,” Kinuthia revealed.

Kinuthia also shared the challenges he faces when visiting barbershops, saying he finds it uncomfortable due to the judgmental stares from others.

“Another reason sitaki kuenda barbershop juu iyo time hukua awkward. Unabaki umepewa side eye look, they wonder why uyu amekam na wig ako na braids, amekam kinyozi kufanya, that was kitambo, but sai ata sijali,” he added.

Kinuthia announced his decision for the laser treatment a few days ago promising his fans that he will be sharing updates of the procedure on his official YouTube channel.

“Saying good bye to my beards❤️😭Its high time now we get to do this🥺Full process on my youtube channel #lifewithofficialkinuthia. I have been looking for a easy and effective way to get rid of my beards and i thank God for bring me to @facebysarah254 one of the best facial therapist🥰Finally i have started my journey and can’t wait to see the results❤️,” Kinuthia announced.

Laser hair removal procedure

Laser hair removal is a cosmetic treatment that uses intense beams of light to selectively target hair follicles, preventing them from producing new hair.

Effective for most skin and hair types, it requires multiple sessions for best results. Common areas treated include the face, legs, and bikini line.

Safety includes minor side effects like redness, with rare risks like burns. Costs vary, so consulting a professional is crucial to assess candidacy and ensure safe treatment [sic].
