Nigerian Afrobeats icon Davido has once again turned heads—this time not with a chart‑topping single, but with the price tag of his next haircut.
In a revelation that’s taken social media by storm, Davido’s barber of over a decade, Kufre Nnah of Kayz Place salon, disclosed that the superstar now pays a jaw‑dropping ₦2 million every time he sits in the chair—up from the humble ₦200 he paid as a 12‑year‑old prodigy.
Kufre’s heartfelt Instagram tribute paints a vivid picture of their journey together. “When David started coming to me at age 12, he could only afford ₦200 per cut,” he reminisced. “Today, he’s dropping ₦2 million—and it’s not just payment, it’s a celebration of how far he’s come. I’m proud to have been there every step of the way.”
Generosity is nothing new for the “Unavailable” crooner. In July 2024, ahead of his wedding to Chioma, Davido surprised his wedding barber, known online as Perfect Haircuts by Hark, with a $1,000 tip (roughly ₦1.5 million at the time). The astonished stylist took to social media to express his gratitude, calling the gesture “another reason to be thankful in 2024.”
Davido’s extravagant beauty bills are more than mere showmanship; they reflect deep loyalty to the people who’ve supported his rise from street‑dance sensation to global superstar. By investing in those who’ve invested in him, he sends a powerful message about honoring one’s roots—and about never forgetting the ₦200 beginnings that shaped his extraordinary journey.
