Artist and businessman Kevin Bahati Kioko has shocked fans by unveiling a clean-shaven look–ditching his signature dreadlocks of 10 years–after Arsenal’s defeat by PSG in the Champions League semi-final.

Bahati had earlier made a bold promise on social media that if Arsenal lost the match, he would shave off his hair. And true to his word or at least appearing to be, he shared a video of the moment the clippers touched his head.

In the short Instagram video, Bahati, clad in a brown jacket, stepped out of his house and sat down as his barber waited with a torn Arsenal jersey. He wrapped the jersey around his neck, picked up the clippers, and turned them on, teasing fans with a fade to black before revealing the final results.

Moments later, Bahati posted a photo revealing his bald head with the caption: ā€œNew season.ā€ In a cryptic message, he hinted at regret and blame for placing so much faith in Arsenal.

Fans React to Bahati’s New Look

While some fans believed he went through with the shave, others speculated the image was edited using Photoshop or AI. Here’s a look at some of the reactions:

@billymiya: Photoshop ni nzuri kushinda AI

@_.kuyu: Photoshop you…

@mrseedofficial: Mimi najua kichwa yako na forehead vile inakaanga na sio hivyo!

@jacky_arshly: Show us through video kindly… hii mchezo wa taon tunaijua

@tracy_gathoni: Dawa ya deni ni kulipa!

Arsenal Loss Crushes Fans’ Bets

Bahati wasn’t the only fan feeling the sting of Arsenal’s loss. Businessman Mike Sonko had also made a risky promise vowing to crash his luxury SUV into a wall if PSG defeated Arsenal. True to his word, Sonko posted clips honoring the vow.

Arsenal fell 2-1 in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final, losing 3-1 on aggregate to PSG. The loss triggered fan meltdowns, wild bets, and now… new hairstyles.
