X (formerly Twitter) celebrities Khalif Kairo, born Joseph Kairo Wambui and Fridah Mwende, alias Mwende Frey, met face to face on Wednesday, September 27 at the former's offices.

The two, who own viral businesses on their part, each shared a photo capturing them at the meeting, with Mwende exchanging her famous sultry outfit mesmerising clients at her Man's Chamber Barbershop and Spa in Ruiru, Kiambu County, for an official outfit composed of a long dress.

Kairo on the other hand exuded the look of an executive mogul with a pink blazer and creamy pink shirt.

While Kairo revealed that the meeting explored a potential partnership between him and Mwende, the 27-year-old barber remarked that she was delighted to have learnt vital business tips from Kairo, who founded Kai & Karo Motors and currently leads as its Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

"Fellow entrepreneur and tweep Mwende Frey who runs Man’s Chamber paid me a courtesy call earlier today at my Kai and Kairo offices. We discussed ways we can partner for the benefit of our clients," posted Kairo.

"Paid a courtesy visit to Business Mogul Khalif Kairo. I walked out richer, with million-dollar business knowledge and with special goodies for the Man's Chamber Members Club. The sky is the limit now!" remarked Mwende.

Neither of the X bigwigs was yet to reveal further details of their one-of-a-kind meeting, which sent mixed reactions on the platform with users making assumptions about how a collaboration between their businesses would look like.

"How would this partnership work? Ukinunua gari unapata (when you buy a car, will you get a) free haircut in Kamakis?" one user posed.

Khalif Kairo Profile

Kairo is a multifaceted individual known for his diverse talents and achievements. Born in November 1996, he spent his formative years in Amboseli nestled in the neighbourhood of Kawangware, Nairobi County which is the closest residence to Lavington.

Narrating his upbringing, Kairo recounted that his mother owned a humble kiosk where she diligently sold essential goods within their local community.

Kairo's educational journey began at Huduma Primary Pre-Unit in Kawangware where he studied up to Class 6 before transitioning to World Hope Academy, also located in Kawangware, for classes 6 to 8.

Upon completing his primary education, Kairo ventured into high school. In the years 2011 to 2012, he was part of the Dagoretti High School community.

In 2012, Kairo embarked on a new chapter in his educational journey as he joined Kahuho Uhuru High School, which played a vital role in shaping his academic and personal growth, as he spent the years 2012 to 2014 here.

As Kairo transitioned from high school into the next phase of his life, he didn't merely rely on academic achievements alone as he leveraged his passion for cars to drive up his aspirations. 

After successfully completing his school journey, he embarked on a quest to turn his love for automobiles into a profitable venture, enrolling in driving classes to get the necessary skills and credentials to thrive in the automotive industry.

Kairo's passion for automobiles goes beyond the ordinary; he is a genuine car enthusiast, a passion that not only drove up his personal interests but has also been the cornerstone of his business ventures.

He got his first job as a car salesman at age 18 after failing to join a university but quit the job to start his car import business. He was forced out by his partners but bounced back in a resounding fashion to start his current company, growing it to one of the most popular car dealing companies in the country.

At the age of 21, Kairo became a father to a son who was born approximately two months after quitting his freelance job to pursue his own brand.

For Mwende, her Man's Chamber Barbershop where one can get a haircut and have her female staff twerk for him- for free, has earned her everything from praise to criticism and even media interviews with Citizen Digital and German state-owned international broadcaster, Deutsche Welle (DW) as well as features by several local digital media houses, Viral Tea included.
