Waiting to talk to the owner of the barbershop, I am advised I have to wait for a few minutes as she is caught in the usual town traffic from work. Dr. Mary Kiara Otieno, the founder of the barber shop, when she arrived she informed of how she would stay for long as she was attending a function in town. Mary, 31 years old, has been running two barber shops in two and a half years now, saying she has been able to accomplish her vision. Married with two kids, she has a full-time job at Nairobi South Hospital in South C area, Emergency Medicine department. “I have a keen eye on the skin and skincare conditions but hygiene is very key as a doctor,” Mary said.
