Kinuthia undergoing beard removal

Content creator Kelvin Kinuthia has begun the process of laser hair removal to eliminate his beard.

According to the Mayo Clinic, laser hair removal works by emitting a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair.

This light energy converts to heat, damaging the hair follicles within the skin, which inhibits or delays future hair growth.

Previously, Kinuthia regularly shaved his beard and often visited a barber for a clean cut.

"You usually can't see my beard because I shave it often, and sometimes I wear makeup. I sometimes lose motivation to create content because I have to go to the barbershop," he revealed on YouTube.

"I used to have awkward moments walking into the barbershop with a wig and braids, and people would wonder why I was there."

Kinuthia has decided to undergo laser hair removal sessions to permanently say goodbye to his beard.
