The creative barber admitted that the axe attracts many people, however, not everybody is happy about being shaved with an axe.

“When people hear of a barber shaving with an axe, they are curious to know where. Some come to see and take photos with the axe but prefer not to be shaved with it.

Some come full of fear, but I help them overcome it,” he said.

Advantages of using an axe

Mwangi disclosed that shaving with an axe is advantageous over the usual shaving machine.

“The axe gives a smoother shave which is more suitable for the Jordan style. Also, when there is a blackout, I continue with my work as usual,” he said.

He also disclosed that the axe is better suited for shaving clients with full beards.

“I am looking for a lighter axe because this is a bit heavy. I currently charge KSh 500 for a shave but the price will go up with demand,’ he added.
