I think I’m getting too soft, Nairobi is not good for shamba hardknocks like me. About a year ago I would not have walked through the door of a kinyozi in Nyahululu without inquiring and having in writing the price of a shave even if I was there only the previous week. If it ventured anywhere north of a hundred bob, I would turn around and my shadow would never darken the door of that premises ever again. Nairobi people are tricky. After my Kiganjo like shave debacle last month, I swore no other barber would touch my head unless I had sat there and studied at least two specimens of his workmanship done with my keen eye on his technique.
This petty concern over my dome aesthetics made me overlook the golden rule, price first. That and the fact that where I stumbled in consisted of an all female staff with resplendent smiles and customers in various stages of ecstasy as their heads, shoulders and kahashos received kingly attention. I studied the lady barber’s work and by the time she was midway the client she was working on I was convinced. I’d even let her do my armpits and curve the flash lightning symbol on my crotch if they offered the service. I hastily took my seat when my turn came and enjoyed 30 minutes of pure bliss. In truth, the end result wasn’t far from what my Nyahururu hair technician used to achieve in ten minutes but after having three ladies fondle your head you walk out of there feeling like you’re God’s gift to all of femaledom.
Unfortunately, this high only lasted the few seconds it took to walk to the counter. I’m over there pulling my wallet feeling philanthropic enough to pay at least one fifte bob and leave a fifte Bob tip because this is Nyailofi and has city prices then I get presented with a bill of one thousand one hundred bob! I swear! One shilling, two shillings, three… one thousand one hundred! Bloody hell! Did they perform brain surgery on me or merely trimmed a few inches off my dome? For that amount I can climb Nuclear Sacco to Nyahululu, get shaved, come back and still have enough change to eat a whole goats head and soup at Ngara. I look around to find a similarly astonished brother so I won’t be alone in protesting this daylight robbery but the buggers are just there pulling out their wallets happily with their staut penises evident even from their faces. I consider making a dash for it but a bouncer like watchman stationed at the door whom I’d not noticed before is indication enough that I’m not the first ninja to have had that bright idea. I value my face more than my head so I just swallow hard and surrender the full contents of my mpesa account and that thieving cashier has the audacity to smilingly invite me to come again. Mimi hii Nairobi, I’m never going to buy even ballgum without asking the price first. “Nyinyi wote ni wezi na majambazi”, kinyozi struggles continues.
Man you can write! Hahaha [SIZE=1](hope you are the author… @Ka-Buda take note and dont bore us again) [/SIZE]

Nyeri tunapatambua kwa sifa zake. Seriously though, that was a rip-off, hata in some barber joints in Nbi CBD people don’t pay that much.
