About Hairhub
A clinic that looks before it treats
Hairhub Trichology Centre started with one trichologist, one trichoscope and a lot of people who had been told their hair loss was "just stress". It is now a full clinic on Ngong Road with a surgical team, a proper operating room and patients who come from across East Africa.
We do one thing. We find out why your hair is falling out, we tell you in words you understand. Then we treat the actual cause. Sometimes that is a transplant. Sometimes it is PRP. Sometimes it is iron tablets and a looser braid. You always know which one and why.
We have pre written the message for you, with a link to this page. Keep it, add a line about your hair and send. It helps us see what you were reading, so you get a useful answer, not a generic one.
Our story
From a salon chair to an operating room
Hairhub began with a hairdresser who kept meeting clients nobody could help. Their hair was thinning or breaking and every salon had a different oil for it. None of them had a microscope.
So Muli Musyoka went to Sydney and trained with the International Association of Trichologists. He came home as the first I.A.T certified trichologist in East and Central Africa and opened a small consulting room with one trichoscope.
Patients came from across East Africa. Many needed more than treatment. Muli teamed up with Dr. Dindi Keith and together they performed the first hair transplants in the region, in a clinic built around Afro textured hair rather than adapted for it.
Today Hairhub is a full trichology centre on Ngong Road with its own operating room, a surgical team and a product range made for the hair we see every day. The microscope still comes first.

The people
Three specialists who have spent their careers on hair and who still find a healthy follicle under the microscope exciting.
Muli Musyoka
Founder and lead trichologist, C.T., I.A.T
Muli did not plan to spend his life looking at scalps. He grew up in Machakos wanting to play football. Then he grew an afro after school, a modelling agent noticed it. Hair quietly took over.
He trained as a hairdresser in Nairobi, worked for a hair care manufacturer travelling across East Africa. He kept meeting people whose hair loss nobody could explain. So he went to Sydney and trained with the International Association of Trichologists. He came back as the first I.A.T certified trichologist in East and Central Africa.
Since then he has lectured at trichology forums in Houston, Melbourne, Hobart, Washington DC and Canada. He was named in Business Daily Top 40 Under 40 in 2014 and featured in Hairy Tales, a book profiling the top 54 trichologists in the world. He founded the Afro Hair Awards in 2015 to lift the standards of hairdressing in Kenya.
In the clinic he is the person who puts your scalp under the trichoscope, explains what he sees in plain words and tells you honestly whether you need treatment, surgery or just a looser hairstyle.
- Also trained in brand strategy in South Africa and at the London School of Economics
- Member of the International Association of Trichologists and the Africa Hair Society
- Raises German shepherds
- Says hair is a calling. The patients agree.
Dr. Dindi Keith
Hair transplant surgeon
Dr. Dindi is the reason the hairlines on this site look like they were born there and not drawn with a ruler.
He trained at the Moi University School of Medicine and then at the International Academy of Cosmetic Surgery and Aesthetic Medicine in Pune, India. Together with Muli Musyoka, I.A.T, he performed the first hair transplants in the region.
His particular interest is transplant surgery on African patients, whose curly follicles need a different hand from the straight hair most of the world trains on. He is also a painter. He brings the same eye to a hairline: direction, density, the way it should soften at the temples.
He operates with a full surgical team, in a proper theatre. He tells you if he does not think surgery is right for you yet.
- First FUE surgeon in the region
- Trained in Kenya and India
- Paints when he is not planting grafts
Celestine Gitau
Trichologist and hair transplant technician
Celestine started as a nurse, which is why she is the calmest person in the room on surgery day.
She became a hair transplant technician in 2017 and has now worked on over 500 transplants, with a particular skill in extracting and placing follicles in Afro textured hair. She trained in trichology with the International Association of Trichologists in Australia and also works in cosmetic chemistry, advising hair care brands on their formulas.
In 2019 she won the International Association of Trichologists article writing award. In 2021 she spoke at the World Trichology Society virtual summit on hair transplants for Afro and ethnic hair. She tutors at the Institute of Trichologists and reviews papers for a surgery journal.
In the clinic she is the one most likely to tell you which product in your bathroom is the problem and why.
- Over 500 hair transplants as a technician
- Guest on the Hair Therapy podcast on textured hair transplants
- Writes for Eve Woman on hair loss
How we work
Three rules we do not break.
Assessment first, always
Nobody gets a treatment plan before a trichoscope has looked at their scalp. If the problem is a tight weave, we say so and send you home with advice.
Plain words
Trichology has a lot of long words. We use them because the certificates say so, then we translate every one. If something confuses you, that is on us.
Real photos only
Every before and after on this site is a Hairhub patient who agreed to be shown. No stock pictures, no photos from clinics abroad.

Would recommend them any day. They are such a friendly community, very warm and kind when it comes to their service delivery and do not get me started on the results! They do deliver on what they say and I am absolutely grateful for their support in growing my hair back to what it is today! They did make my dream come true, and finally I can get to embrace who I am fully when I look at myself in the mirror. Thank you so much Hair Hub!
I thank God that after 2 gruesome years of scalp psoriasis, I have finally found a solution that works like magic. This was only possible with the services I got from Hair Hub at Bemuda Plaza, after years of spending so much money on other hair products on the market, all in vain. The first consultation I had was with Celestine Gitau and 3 weeks later I can say without a doubt that I no longer have any flaking or itching of the scalp and the inflammation has since reduced drastically.
Customer service before the procedure was smooth and engaging. The experts handled everything very professionally. 10/10 would recommend.
Their Jet Peel PRP technology is on another level. My hair is gradually coming back. I am happy.
Top notch service. Customer education is precise.
Great customer service, keep up the great work.
Above and beyond expectations.
Truly satisfying experience.
Caring and professional service.
Excellent services. Highly recommend.
Hair hub is a great hair restoration clinic. Quite professional and great results! Glad I decided to have my procedure done here.
Hairhub is a firm of its kind in Kenya. They perform hair transplant using the latest technology, also known as Follicular Unit Extraction, abbreviated as FUE.
